You can tell that you are truly passionate about building this bike. So many people just whip up a bike that looks horrible. Yours looks brilliant - still simple and easy, but not too complicated. Well done!
Most of the times simple is better.
Thanks:)
Coco Channel always said: "less is more"
Indeed! Here there is a saying that translates to "anything in excess is a plague"
ha! I like it. Where are you from btw?
Portugal.
This was by far one of the best home built bike videos I've seen. It was really interesting to see the symmetry and use of the Fibonacci Sequence explained. Great job!
I'm about to pick up an 01 CB250 and you've thoroughly inspired me. You are seriously talented!
Thank you. I have two potential bikes to rebuild (CMX250 and VT700C). Your build taught me more about symmetry and the importance to the results than I realized.
Cool! This is the first motorcycle build ive seen where someone talks about everything being symmetrical
Picking up lower bars for my cb250 and will now be swapping the footpegs. That's a really good idea. Gorgeous bike.
The beauty of your work is in the simple aesthetic and respect shown to the original design. Nice work!
thanks:)
Beautiful work. Picked up an old hawk a week ago. Wasn't going to mess with it, just service it and ride... May have to rethink that. Thank you for sharing!!!
Man, you put a lot of thought and effort in this bike
BEST DIY bike video I've ever seen, very very impressed and your bike looks great too dude!
Nice work. Beautiful bike!
You Sir are a excellent fabricator. Your proficiency is outstanding. Your attention to detail is superb. Thank you for sharing it.
Thank you for the nice comment Chai, have a great year:)
Awesome mods and you really make that into a new bike! Amazing.
Outstanding and incredibly professional 😎
Awesome! I haven't ever thought the CB250 could be beautiful like this.
Thank you:)
Beautiful work!
Good job! I really like how you used what was already provided like the fender and exhaust. Really good info, thank you.
Thank you:)
Tôi đã xem Clip đến lần thứ 15. Dụng cụ đã sẵn sàng. Đợi Em nó về từng ngày để làm theo bài hướng dẫn.
Cảm ơn Bác Chủ nhiều nha.
Cảm ơn Bác :)
Thanks Daniel I just obtained a CB 250 RS and will do a similar build to yours. Thanks for listing all the parts you used this is very helpful. You need to watch out grinding near your car.
Thanks, yes now I'm more careful grinding and welding:)
Nice bike, good luck with your project.
Yours is a single, more torque at lower rpms = more fun!
This is the best rebuild video i have seen by far.
The video is a work of art in itself.
The bike is sublime, a wonderful creation. It inspires me.
I have a Honda Varadero 125 as my learner bike at the moment and this is the style and power of a bike i would love for hobby riding.
Thankyou for the inspiration.
Peace.
Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it.
Happy rides.
Peace:)
Great video Brother. Top notch really enjoyed and a beautiful build! Thank you
man first of all i have to tell you that you are indeed badass!great video!! ive just bought a stock two fifty and you gave me the power to strip it down and make it a cool moto like yours!greetings from Greece!
well done Daniel good work and always important to pick the right bike
thanks;)
After looking on internet a lot of modification Honda 250 Nighthawk bikes, this is the one! Very clean and minimalist. I would like to have my bike like your!
beautiful work, love your analysis at the end too. keep it up!!!
Thanks:)
Hi Daniel, I loved the video, well done. I have just bought a cb250 and you have inspired me to make the bike my own. Thankyou
Hi nsr(my first bike)freak.
Thanks, have fun, take care;)
Eres buenísimo. Me encanta. Un trabajo maravilloso
I admire the way you have modified your bike.........great bro......Keep Going.....Got Inspired
Thanks man:)
Great video! You modified your bike in an awesome way!
+Roberto Berti Thank you for the nice comment, I appreciate it;)
amazing, beautiful, congratulations and thanks for sharing your work
Thank you, glad you enjoyed;)
Cool video and nice build! I love that you talked about the proportions of the components of the bike (in detail) for an attractive build. I feel the one you missed was lowering the headlight to where the top of the headlight is even with the top of the gas tank. It is usually very simple to do and gives a cafe racer style bike an extremely sleek look. A very subtle detail that goes a long way to make a sexy machine.
Hi Michael, thank you, I never thought about moving the headlight but will look into it, now I'm curious;)
Cheers!
You did a nice job!
Nice bike mate!
Awesome video and nice bike!
Thank you:)
Just found this. Nicely done.
Brilliant! Great use and demonstration of lines and proportions theory. My girlfriend wants a custom 250 so I'm seeing how I can transform something for her. This looks great!
That's nice to know:)
Have fun, I'm sure she will love it!
Absolutely gorgeous! Loving that Impreza in the back too man! You have good tastes all around.
+Tyler London Thanks mate, I appreciate it;)
I just made a video of the Impreza:)
Awesome job , well done dude
Greetings from France
Merci:)
impresionante!!!! quedó hermosa!!! te felicito!!
Gracias:)
beautiful work man!!!
thanks!
wow! what a great result. Thankyou very much for such an inspiring and useful video. I'm planning to do very similar with my 250 and since it'll be my major job it's great to have some reference
That's very nice of you, thanks:)
Good luck to your project and have fun.
This is art.
Excelent job!
Lovely Build!!! awesome!
+RideWithBadan Thank you for the comment:)
very good, i just started chopping my cb250 ;-)
Parabéns pelo projecto!
+XFLoripaTV Obrigado;)
very good video, nice bike. good luck.
greetings
great soundtrack, aswell as the bike ;D
thanks:)
thanks for the great upload! Such simple modifications for a beautiful bike!
+_ Nerdify Thank you for the nice comment, I appreciate it;)
No problem! I have a few questions in regard to the mods you did, if you wouldn't mind answering!
Did you grind down the excess metal on the bottom of the tank to make the lines cleaner?
Did you do the upholstery work or custom?
Did you change wiring for the LED signals?
hope to hear from you! THANKS :)
+_ Nerdify Sure:
1-No, just paint matt black.
2-No, it was a nearby upholstery shop. To be honest it´s not 100% what I wanted but good enough.
3-The indicators are small regular bulbs, not led but you´ll need the relay I have in the links for them to work.
The tail/brake light is leds and no wiring is needed, it is plug and play, all you need to do is crimp new terminals on the wires and connect.
Thanks:)
+Daniel Geraldo Thanks for all your help. I plan on picking one of these bikes up but before i do, I'd really like to hear how it fit you? Seat height/leg room e.g. How tall are you? looking forward to hearing back!
+_ Nerdify I´m 5´9"/155lbs or 176m/70Kg, it´s very confortable and fun to ride once you replace the handlebar with a wider one.
The seat height is fine for me but you shoud try before you buy, it is a matter of personal preference.
Exelente!!!! Greeting from Peru
+Abel Quintanilla Gracias:)
Extremely like!!
The bike like very good, used the original exhaust was a good idea and nice chosee for colour.
The moment that you explain the desing harmony was very interenting for me, thanks you!! I always thonk about it, and this "spiral" truly help me.
Moito obrigado de Espanha!!
Muchas gracias! Saludos:)
Que bonita felicidades!!-More beautiful congrats!!
Thank you:) Felicidades!
Espetacular fiquei impressionado. E obrigado pela explicação detalhada e sucinta.
Obrigado Ricardo, abraço.
So cool! I really like it
+chaodanang Thanks, I appreciate the comment;)
Magnifique! 👍🏻
Merci 👍🏻
God level! Very nice job is done! Going to order cb250rs and dream it will look like yours!
Cheers
+Eugene Fesyuk Thank you for the nice comment;)
Have a great time with your new bike.
@@corridasloucas hey bud, do you still have this bike?
Congratulations!
thanks:)
i love how you used sacred geometry in something you're passionate about ✌
thank you:)
congratulations, very stimulating your video.Tenho in mind a similar project but on a very common cb 400 in Brazil.
Sucesso para o seu projecto, um abraço aqui da terrinha dos gajos:)
Ora pois então não havia necessidade de traduzir o texto,bem que notei algo peculiar no vosso sotaque.
great work!!!i like it!!!
Thank you!
Parabéns ficou muito boa!(Congratulations, great work!)
Obrigado:)
Awesome! Busy with my own 1980 CB400N :)
Thank you.
Have fun, your bikes kickstarter increases the cool factor:)
Good job mate
Than you!
Unbelievable job. Hope to be able to do something similar to my 1993 nighthawk someday.
Thanks :) Have fun!
that was awesome.
Excellent. Thank you.
Thank you.
Elegant transformation! I also owe a CB two fifty :-) Great inspiration ;-)
Thanks:)
Great bike! I own the same motorcicle and Im also thiking how to modify it. Good inspiration! Saludos desde Barcelona
+Alejandro Morales Gracias:) Saludos!
Amazing!
+Pék Balázs Cheers;)
Nice bike,thanks
Thank you.
Very elegant for a retro look to that 80hawk Honda design. BSA 60s. Reusing the original seat (pan) with new vinyl or leather was good, and avoided having to chop up the frame. The CB250 with that swooping seat means than no flat bottomed cafe seat will fit unless you:
1 chop the frame severely adding a long loop (which becomes too close to the rear tire) or
2 you straighten the rails, which causes the same problem.
3 Doing neither, but just propping up a cafe seat with risers makes the very ugly gap below and a wiggle seat.
For those that do not upholster from scratch:
I found that that the CB360T replacement seat cover from the 80s is almost the same as the nighthawk but with a flatter cleaner top allowing more cushion. Build up the rider dish padding level with the passenger, and cover with the 360 replacement cover (usually about $50US). At that point you may keep or toss the taillight box (depending on your desires) and even the side plastics.
I like your video
Awesome
very nice!!
Thank you!
Hi,I very much enjoyed the detailed video , Excellent result , I would like to do something similar myself , Thankyou
+Syddly Thank you;) Good luck with you project!
Holy shit dude your design concepts :D
+Lachlan Mackay lol! cheers:D
Geniooooooo
hermosa la moto!!!!
Gracias;)
very good job))
Thanks! Hasta la vista:)baby
Cb250 nighthawk is one of the best sounding 250cc class beginner bike.
great video! great bike!
+Sherman J thanks;)
+Daniel Geraldo i definately plan on doing something similar with my CB 250 now
+Sherman J Most people agree the stock CB250 is not the best looking bike so go for it, good luck!
+Daniel Geraldo just curious. you seem to know what you are doing. have you got a lot of experience? would this be a feasible project for an amateur like myself?
+Sherman J Yes I have some experience. You need the basic skills like disassembling and assembling the parts or working with the grinder, otherwise it's better to leave the job to someone else.
Projecto muito bom! Só mudava os espelhos. Gostei imenso de tudo o resto!
Sim, sem espelhos fica muito melhor, mas para andar na cidade dão-me jeito e estes tem boa visibilidade, para já vão ficando.
Obrigado;)
Uns espelhos nos bar-ends não dão jeito?
Nunca experimentei.. vou pensar!
Parabéns ficou de mais !
Obrigado;)
Podes dizer mais ou menos qual foi o total custo da transformação ?
Na descrição do vídeo pus as peças, cerca de 300€ em material, fora a mão de obra.
Ok obrigado , eu reparei mas como alguns dos links já não dão queria saber +/- um preço .
Epic
O nome soava familiar... mas só quando vi os azulejos na parede na parte da pintura... tive o "click"!
Em tempos vi video teu a shapear... e agora descubro este a reconstruir uma moto. pelos vistos temos interesses bem parecidos. mas tu estas sempre à frente!
mais uma vez obrigado pela inspiração. parabéns.
Olá Pedro, obrigado pelo comentário.
É verdade, ando sempre a inventar.
Entre motas e surf se calhar até já nos cruzámos por aí:)
Um abraço, boas curvas e boas ondas:)
Motocicleta bonito e um gato preto bonito é boa sorte
Ichiban Moto Hi Ichiban, big fan here:)
Black cats are bad ass.
I´m giving myself 5 out of 5 Ichiban moto stickers!
+Daniel Geraldo really great buddy, i am from India, i want contact with you, 9774424602 its my whtsapp number bro
Nice sound, like some bmw bikes
looks great! Gotta lower the front end and get rid of that old speedo/tach though :P
I have discovered that you cannot create custom motorcycles or much of anything for that matter without a good cat!! Your good to go!
ahah, you discovered the secret!
Daniel Geraldo Yup, I design loudspeakers and my cat is right beside me checking out every part.
Amazing build I really like it. But I must say. Please wear shoes or boots to protect your feet. I'm not trying to be a jerk. But I learned a hard painful lesson working in my garage on my car. I wore sandals and I broke my big toe on my right foot. Got 10 stitches and lost my toenail. It was very painful. Be safe. But that bike is amazing. Great work. 👍👍👍
Thank you🙏 Ouch, sorry to ear about your toe, and yes I don't work with sandals anymore.
Hi Daniel, thank you for sharing ! I love how you modified the existing seat. I have 2 seats and was wondering if I could send to you to replicate what you did on your bike?
Great transformation seriously, but i have a doubt, i got a cb 250 too and i was plannin o modifying it, removing the baffles and drilling a hole in the center and rejetting the carburetor makes the bike faster or more powefull? does it has impact on fuel?
CB250 was my first bike. It was a fucking piece of crap, but I'm glad to see that you made it look awesome.
What kind of air filter do you have? The red after market one? Link? Thank you, great work on the bike!
Hi! Trying to see what you did with the battery. Do you have any photos of what you did to cover the battery?
Great job... Really inspiring... A question. Did you modify or change the fuel tank? Original is it flat line at the bottom?
very beautiful bike. How do you like the yamaha vstar 250? I'd like your opinion on its looks in stock form.
The engine was stock at the end of the video?
Hi Daniel about to start a similar project. Do you have more detailed video, pictured ,drawings, notes anything on how you made and shaped the seat. Most people use eBay seats and cut the frame lock off. I love the fact you modified the original seat. Really need your help on this I hope you can help me.
Did you cut down the existing rear fender or remove completely?
