In 1984 I bought a brand new CBX750F, black with silver and red stripes. The 1984 model had a rectangular front light, in 1985 Honda split the headlight and instead there were 2 square ones. if I'm not completely mistaken, the Honda was the first with 16 inch front wheels and 19 inch rear wheels, which made it superior on twisty roads to rival models.
Precious. Corpulent. It looks like the bike was wearing big, square glasses from a bygone era. Its headlights give it a character and personality. I like it. A great job well done Gentlemen of X-Axis
This is indeed an amazing job. I can understand it more closely perhaps as we have gone through the similar kind of difficult decisions and scenarios when we were modifying our Honda cb250 nighthawk, another one of the difficult bikes to modify especially when it comes to the tail section and the side covers. So yeah very much appreciate the amazing effort put into this project which is why it certainly deserved to be covered. 👍🏽
Indeed. This project is from 2018. It was a forgotten project on my playlist for future videos. I think it would be a mistake, if I never presented this project in a new video.Thank you Carlos for your support. :) Cheers.
Great video Racer, as always. Billy has done an excellent job with the CBX , in it's day it was a pretty good bike. A very modern looking cafe racer. Ride safe and take care mate. Cheers
It's been a while since I've seen a video of yours, and the viralization of your voice on tiktok and Instagram made me enjoy again the beautiful caferacer that you describe with all your equanimity, a pleasure to return

Certainly a very beautiful Café racer! The dual square headlights are fitting and make it an 80’s bike for sure! Very nice! The lines, as you describe them, are near perfect. And, as always, thank you for Racer TV, the Café racers only choice! Hope you are doing well my dear friend. Ride safe and enjoy your beautiful weather!
Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. Yes, everything is ok here. I hope the same about you. Curiosity, the weather here in Portugal has been strange this Summer. It is now quite cold for the usual. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV …. We’ve had a rather rough heat wave the last two weeks! Unusual for us this time of year. But it was much, much worse than this in 2012. I did get in a nice long ride yesterday, despite the heat. Cheers:)
I remember this bike from my 80s....when I bought the VF500F Interceptor. A fantastic first bike. I went onto a 90 VFR750F. It borrowed elements from the CBX750F. This conversion is beautiful. I like the "HONDA" screened onto the oil cooler fins. I think I would have made the seat frame longer and the 'cowl' larger to balance the proportions of the tank.
Almost all motorcycles from the 80's have aged poorly. It's like a fifty-year-old wearing beach shoes in the city. Something just does not please the eye, although the engines of that time roar fabulous. I like everything or almost. The tank is simply muscular and strong. It forces you to look at it first, then you concentrate on the small, almost imperceptible details, but which give the whole a total balance. I think I like the square headlamps the least, but they don't look bad either. I just like them less. The black and red color is a speech of freedom. It's good that they didn't put fairing, it would have been a useless addition. Simplemente bella.
Indeed. most 80's bike don't age well. Maybe is a question of needing "more time" to look better. Lol. Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Saludos.
The fairing looks surprisingly nice, just the back is a little chubby. It could also have be easily build into something similar and as sexy as the EICMA 2019 Honda CB4 X Concept!
A very good looking accomplishment with a bike that is not very appealing in it's original form. Yesterday, I saw a Honda CX500 from the 80's I believe, (I don't know much about them), that was absolutely mint condition, which immediately made me think of you with how much you like them. I can't say much for the color which was a bright green metalflake, but still looked amazing!
The side cover is the key as you said. Billy achieved from a pretty ugly lump making a beauty. (I sent you a mail a while ago, did you get it) Some proposals are inside
Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. I am really sorry, but it is quite hard answering all the messages I receive daily. But I am going to check my email box. :) Cheers.
Nicely done Billy! I'm wondering if the name X-Axis came after this project seeing that axis was the base's of this build from my perspective. As you pointed out Victor, the design of the motorcycle is usually the attraction of the motorcycle. Which in this case is hard to deny. Billy has a good eye for design but equally is talented in fabrication giving him lots of opportunities in custom motorcycle design. Showcasing his project on Racer TV should bump his status as a builder as well. Thank you for bringing his talents to us viewers on a bike others might see differently from now on.
Interesting. But I believe the X-Axis name was created before this Honda CBX. To be honest, I think Billy is no longer on custom build scene. But let's just hope this video may change things for him. Thank you my friend for your kind comment. :) Cheers.
As with any project, tearing it down to the bare frame and starting from scratch using imagination and in some cases string one can reform the machine like moulding clay. A nice example of not being restrained by its original design.
Caro compatriota e colega motard, cujos canal e vídeos foram amor à primeira vista para mim. Obrigado por todo este trabalho fina e espectacularmente bem executado. Excelentes locução, texto, música, conteúdo, máquinas. É provavelmente o melhor canal ao qual estou subscrito. Tive na minha vida várias motas, todas elas sport-gt ou trail (nc750x, fazer 600s2, cbr600f, multistrada, tracer 900). Adoro a posição confortável sem me dar dores nas costas, o poder de ver por cima dos outros utentes da estrada e os consequentes sentimentos de domínio da estrada e de segurança. Mas as café racer, o estilo neo-retro e o charme à antiga sempre me seduziram. No meu regresso a Portugal após 13 anos no estrangeiro comprei uma pequena 125 duke my2019 para o meu dia-a-dia. Encontro nela potencial para uma bela café racer (quadro em treliça, forqueta de qualidade, mono-amortecedor traseiro). Estou nos meus primeira croquis... espero um dia que ela seja digna no vosso canal. Um grande abraço e continuação de bom trabalho e de boas curvas
Olá Amigo, Muito Obrigado por todas as simpáticas palavras. Vejo que tem um Curriculo motard bem respetável. Em relação à sua KTM duke, acredito que a mota tenha uma personalidade forte, mas estéticamente, acho que é uma mota muito difícil de converter numa cafe racer. Não sei se ainda vou a tempo, mas deixo aqui uma sugestão interessante. Porque não investir numa velhinha Honda CB 125 twin de 2 cilindros dos anos 70, e com apenas algumas alterações simples, pode torna-se numa pequena cafe racer bastante bonita. Espero ter ajudado. :) Um abraço.
Martin makes a chassis for the real cbx 6 cylinder. It's Chrome molly steel, and it has a hardened Chrome skin. A fraction of the stock chassis weight. A sharper rake, a touch more trail. Man o.man, I wished it was the six cylinder, maybe next time.
Realmente esse projeto com a 7 galo ficou muito legal e de uma forma atraente de se ver e gostar ao mesmo tempo, é uma das motos mais interessante em fazer uma neo cafe reicer da atualidade. 🙂🙌
Even thought I love cafe racer bikes and the creativity of their builders, I can't stand seeing them riding in t-shirt, sneakers, no gloves and snowboard helmet. Does a cafe racer means no security needed? Even for Photoshootings, the bike looks a lot better with an appropriate full-gear. And I mean also vintage clothing etc.
I understand, and I completely agree with you. But unfortunately, the Builder didn't sent me any video footage. But if you check BikeExif video(th-cam.com/video/P1MnbtG7mtE/w-d-xo.html), you can hear the engine sound at the end of the video. :) Cheers.
This looks stunning. The other thing I love about it, with the GIGANTIC GAP between the back wheel and the rear sub-frame, it proves that the seat height is a DESIGN CHOICE. It's not a mandatory height that all seats have to be that height. I'm 5'1" and have been riding bikes for years (since 1986). So I've developed a coping strategy to for putting my foot down at a stop, when riding. Sitting half-on and half off the saddle, extending my leg AND my foot, and just using one toe to prop up the bike I've been able to ride bikes like the 2018 Z1000 perfectly happily (although precariously when I come to a standstill). How good would it be if I could take THIS BIKE, chop off the sub-frame and take it down by at least 2" (hopefully more!)? I've never had the money to be able to get this done on any of my bikes, but I wish this guy - because he's so damn good at customising - would take it upon himself to make a bike for those with short legs (women as well!), that DON'T WANT a "custom", "bobber" or "lowrider" style bike, or a "beginner bike" but want a PROPER Cafe-racer/Flat-tracker kind of thing going on. Just like this bike. This bike to me is ACHINGLY close to what I've always wanted, but as usual, the mandatory high seat height completely spoils it. Great work nevertheless. Beautiful clean lines, classic 80's bulletproof UJM, and I LOVE the twin square lights!
I did like you to talk about the top gun motorcycle so therefore can you talk about the motorcycle we see on the last movie of Batman from what ive seen It looks like a cafe racer
Well Victor, I have to say that I am a fan of the "Street Fighter" style of custom bikes, However, there are few lines of this design that my eyes are struggling with ! While I might sound critical of the design, I can't say that I have any other suggestions to further clean up the lines here. I might be very wrong, but the lines seem to be fighting, or clashing with each other ! I might be stirring up a proverbial hornet's nest here, but while I can see the direction they are going for Victor, I think it is still missing the full potential of what the bike could be ! It's just not quite there yet for me !
Hi. Interesting perspective. Somehow, I think I see your point. Looks good, but something is missing. Let's just hope for the future, that someone can improve this approach, to the level of perfection that you(And I) would love to see. :) Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV That perspective is coming from a guy who is doing everything possible to copy a design from some guy who knows a thing or two about design ! It's called "Frankenstein" ! Out of the getting hard to find CX650 ! I will simply call it my tribute to "Frankenstein" Victor ! One of these days, I am going to get with you on the complete build list again ! I actually think the same level of design perfection is possible with this specific Honda as well, some of the most difficult of bikes can end up with the best outcome when you aren't willing to settle for anything less than perfection ! Here's to the perfect design !!!
Thank you my Dear friend for all your kind words. Maybe you should wait for my Yamaha XS 650 to be finished. Because I think you will like it even more than with Frankenstein. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV Now then, Aren't we just two peas in a pod Victor ! Sitting right next to my CX650, sits my next project, and Yamaha XS650, waiting for me to complete the "Frankenstein tribute" bike to be finished ! And then, on to my XS650 Victor ! Excited to see what your touch will be on the great XS650 ! GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE !
I see that you are also very lucky for having those 2 great motorcycles. :) Personally, I think my XS project is much simpler than Frankenstein, but it will have the perfect proportions of a classic old motorcycles from the 60's. I am sure you are going to love it as much as I do. :)
Does look well, shame the wheel sizes stayed rather than something a bit more muscular, same with the swingarm. Rear end remibds me of a Ducati Monster.
Alguém aqui que possa copiar esse projeto? Estou pensando em comprar a minha primeira moto 🙏 não seria loucura em falar que essa seria a moto perfeita pra mim.
Curiosamente, enquanto fazia este video, descobri que cá em Portugal houve alguém que fez um projecto idêntico a este, com apenas algumas alterações muito discretas. :) Um abraço.
Using the original headlights was perfectly fine. And give the build a bit of integrity. The headlights instead of bare headlight housing could benefit from a small red housing that they mount into adding red color onto the other side of the fork. Also Making the cables and wires less busy but preserving still that street fighter look
I've searched these comments for a solution to the only dislike I have for this otherwise spectacular build - a housing for those bare headlights. Were it my bike, I'd fit slightly smaller, twin, square headlights into a housing that would still "embrace" the original theme.
Shame, beautiful bike BUT you totally ruined it by shortening the frame and seat area TOO MUCH Too small. I used to have a CBX I know those Headlights very well.
As I said during the video the square headlights is the most controversial choice on this project. But judging from most comments on this video, it seems most people loved it. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV Cafe and Custom bikes are all awesome in their own right. I guess when you remodel or build your own you have to be happy with the bike. I definately appreciate the individual and original design though.
The guys are riding the bike with no gloves on, no mirrors and no number plate. Give me a break. The Robot computer voice doesn't help. Still a gutless bike. I'll stick with my Gen 2 'Busa.
Total mess, looks like some bloke has knocked that up in his garden shed. Anyway, what a complete waste of effort. Why on earth would you base any kind of special on a model that had a disastrously weak engine? These things used to knock out big ends for a pastime, the cam followers were made of something slightly softer than cheese as well.
Great work square head lights sets it apart possibly bike of the year .
Thank you. I'm glad you liked so much my friend. :) Cheers.

I did like you to talk about the top gun motorcycle so therefore can you talk about the motorcycle we see on the last movie of Batman from what ive seen It looks like a cafe racer
Well Victor,
I have to say that I am a fan of the
"Street Fighter" style of custom bikes,
However, there are few lines of this design that my eyes are struggling with !
While I might sound critical of the design, I can't say that I have any other suggestions to further clean up the lines here.
I might be very wrong, but the lines seem to be fighting, or clashing with each other !
I might be stirring up a proverbial hornet's nest here, but while I can see the direction they are going for Victor, I think it is still missing the full potential of what the bike could be !
It's just not quite there yet for me !
Hi. Interesting perspective. Somehow, I think I see your point. Looks good, but something is missing. Let's just hope for the future, that someone can improve this approach, to the level of perfection that you(And I) would love to see. :) Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers.

That perspective is coming from a guy who is doing everything possible to copy a design from some guy who knows a thing or two about design !
It's called "Frankenstein" !
Out of the getting hard to find CX650 !
I will simply call it my tribute to
"Frankenstein" Victor !
One of these days, I am going to get with you on the complete build list again !
I actually think the same level of design perfection is possible with this specific Honda as well, some of the most difficult of bikes can end up with the best outcome when you aren't willing to settle for anything less than perfection !
Here's to the perfect design !!!
Thank you my Dear friend for all your kind words. Maybe you should wait for my Yamaha XS 650 to be finished. Because I think you will like it even more than with Frankenstein. :) Cheers.

Now then,
Aren't we just two peas in a pod Victor !
Sitting right next to my CX650, sits my next project, and Yamaha XS650, waiting for me to complete the "Frankenstein tribute" bike to be finished !
And then, on to my XS650 Victor !
Excited to see what your touch will be on the great XS650 !
GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE !
I see that you are also very lucky for having those 2 great motorcycles. :) Personally, I think my XS project is much simpler than Frankenstein, but it will have the perfect proportions of a classic old motorcycles from the 60's. I am sure you are going to love it as much as I do. :)
what is the size of the rear and front tires?
Motocicleta muito top
Only the front lights don't blend with the rest of the design, otherwise beautiful
Does look well, shame the wheel sizes stayed rather than something a bit more muscular, same with the swingarm. Rear end remibds me of a Ducati Monster.
To be different you need to build different ...!
Indeed. :) Cheers.
Uma proteção de corrente cairia bem e não iria prejudicar o projeto. 🙂
Linda
Obrigado amigo. Fico contente que tenha gostado. :) Um abraço.
no license plate and mirror are a boost to looks great..but there's no proportion between mini tail and swingarm lenght . it's a big no for me🙃
Alguém aqui que possa copiar esse projeto? Estou pensando em comprar a minha primeira moto 🙏 não seria loucura em falar que essa seria a moto perfeita pra mim.
Curiosamente, enquanto fazia este video, descobri que cá em Portugal houve alguém que fez um projecto idêntico a este, com apenas algumas alterações muito discretas. :) Um abraço.
Cade o som ????

👍🏽💯
Using the original headlights was perfectly fine. And give the build a bit of integrity.
The headlights instead of bare headlight housing could benefit from a small red housing that they mount into adding red color onto the other side of the fork.
Also Making the cables and wires less busy but preserving still that street fighter look
Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers.
I've searched these comments for a solution to the only dislike I have for this otherwise spectacular build - a housing for those bare headlights. Were it my bike, I'd fit slightly smaller, twin, square headlights into a housing that would still "embrace" the original theme.
I have a lot of respect for the work professionals put into cafe racers but the majority are an eye sore
I just wanna to hear it…
🤤
Sorry, as nice as it is, it is not a KAWASAKI.
Indeed. But I think this is the kind of approach, that could also work on the GPZ 900. :) Cheers.
Exhaust looks crap needs to be bit longer and flipped up
Shame, beautiful bike BUT you totally ruined it by shortening the frame and seat area TOO MUCH
Too small. I used to have a CBX I know those Headlights very well.
Shame about the headlights.
As I said during the video the square headlights is the most controversial choice on this project. But judging from most comments on this video, it seems most people loved it. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV Cafe and Custom bikes are all awesome in their own right. I guess when you remodel or build your own you have to be happy with the bike. I definately appreciate the individual and original design though.
The guys are riding the bike with no gloves on, no mirrors and no number plate. Give me a break. The Robot computer voice doesn't help. Still a gutless bike. I'll stick with my Gen 2 'Busa.
Total mess, looks like some bloke has knocked that up in his garden shed.
Anyway, what a complete waste of effort. Why on earth would you base any kind of special on a model that had a disastrously weak engine? These things used to knock out big ends for a pastime, the cam followers were made of something slightly softer than cheese as well.
Amazing!
