This was a lot of work. There were some things that were left out in the final timelapse build video that are explained in the individual parts of this build (mainly parts 5-10). So if you are watching and notice that I switched carb setups and turbo's, watch those earlier videos, they are more in depth and I explain what I'm doing. The bike runs great now (though it does burn oil because of the draw-through turbo setup) and makes a full 12 PSI of boost! Below are links for all of the parts I used, from the turbo setup to the electronics.

*(original comment for context) I recently had a friend ask me if I realized how many ads were on this video, to which I replied, "no?" Holy cow! There used to be an ad break every 3 minutes. I've removed 5 ads from this video, and also removed the "non-skippable" ads as well. From now on and in the future, I will not allow an egregious amount of ads. Take care everyone, and enjoy the video!
In Africa we say "frog can't stop the cow from drinking water" so don't let the negative comments stop good work bro
I call this topic "tool fluency". Just like a language, nobody has it when you first pick it up. We've all put those welds down, we've all cocked up. Despite having lots of room for improvement, you built a thing that works, you deserve to be proud of that. Keep it up!
Maybe I'm not that experienced, but I never saw a flaw in all of your works in this video. I was like wow all the time. Damn, how I wish this bike was mine. Literally my dream bike, except for the front mudguard, it's too enduro type IMHO. But perfect job anyhow. Keep on building them. (Edit: You got yourself an additional new subscriber).
Welcome aboard my friend!
Flux core and turbos are the shit! Don’t listen to the haters. This build was incredible. 🤘🤘🤘
For those of you who have questions about the build, read this comment, I might answer them.
1. The turbo setup went through many revisions, and the final setup didn't look very similar to the original setup. I changed the flex pipe section, the carb, the turbo, added flanges etc. I thought that it would add too much time and complexity to the final build timelapse, so I didn't include the changes + explanation in the final build timelapse. Watch parts 5-10 if you're curious about what I did.
2. Anything in the video that wasn't shown being painted was powdercoated. The frame swingarm, various engine mounts etc.
3. The astute among you will notice that the "continuity" of the video isn't "correct". For example, I'll be installing an engine cover, and then all of the sudden all of the screws will be in it. I did this to save tame, as well as cut down on boring, redundant parts of the video.
4. I wasn't even sure if it was going to make boost before tearing it down. Off camera, I tested the new setup, before tearing it down, ONE time up the street. It seemed like that in the higher gears, it was starting to build boost, but I still wasn't sure. It wasn't until I filmed the last minute of the video, literally that day, I discovered that the setup was sufficient to make full boost (10psi wastegate, 10psi boost). That day I filmed the video and it hit full boost, I screamed with excitement. I was so glad that the final setup worked, and I didn't have to mess with at any longer. Hooray!
5. I've very well aware, my welding skills to anyone who welds for a living are novice at best. I agree, let's move on.
6. The whole point of this build was to test my boundaries, to move the needle in my skillset. At no point during this build was I confident in weather or not it was going to turn out okay. This is the nature of delving into unexplored territory! There will be many times in your wrenching endeavors that you run into something you don't understand, and have to guess in order to hit your mark. This is part of the process! SO MANY people told me to buy a faster bike, to travel the road that others travel. Don't give in to this type of thinking! You are capable of much more than you think you are, all you have to do is get rid of these garbage beliefs about yourself and keep pushing through adversity. You will hit your mark eventually, with enough grit and determination, I promise!
If you've read this comment all of the way through, I commmend you my friend! Whatever project you have in mind, now matter how ambitious it may seem, freaking go for it! What have you got to lose? Pride? Who cares! GO FOR IT MAN!

Well written and well explained.
Good job. Thoroughly enjoyed
Great attitude man! Love it!
Greatest comment!
very nice build
As a former motorcycle mechanic and workshop owner I have absolute respect and admiration for what you did, and I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Subscribed.
Well you won’t spend 33.31 minutes and seconds on TH-cam anytime sooner than this. Watched this while having my breakfast. Lovely job. Cheers mate.
Coming from someone who did this 50 years ago to bikes, although "sans turbo," in my mom's garage and then sold them to buy more bikes, that is a sweet build.
I remember when "black motors" became all the rage in the 70's and everyone was pulling them out to paint em.
That is an an intensive process and amount of work, and it shows...kudos.
I used to take all alloy covers off and polish them to a nice shine, same as to the fork legs, headstock, handlebar mounts. I once mirror polished the FINS of a Laverda SF750 head.
My dads a builder so I grew up learning and working with him, in that respect there is very little I can’t do. However, I often wished he was a mechanic so I could of learnt equally as much to do something like this. Really impressive mate and a great looking bike. You have some skills there and thanks for posting for us all to admire 🤘🏻
You certainly still can learn "mechanic" stuff, my friend! Sounds like you've got the "knack" for it already.. Just learn by doing, and you pick stuff right up! :D
I did a few builds many years ago. Now I can just live vicariously through your channel. It really makes me miss my motorcycles to watch you. They're used to be an endless supply of old Japanese motorcycles. That's probably not the case anymore. I can think of so many older mid seventies to mid-80s motorcycles that you would have a blast with.
Awesome build. I took a 2006 Honda CBR 600 f4i that had been rolled in a ball at 1,942 miles and has sat for 15 years (forks bent under and swingarm broken off, all plastics destroyed, just basically an engine in a frame) and got it back on the street this year. Looks pretty good from 10 feet. I'll probly put all new plastic on it this year, I repaired most of the old plastic so it looks ok.
Wow! You did all that without any tattoos anywhere on your arms. Impressive. You made it look so easy. I enjoyed the video.
Lol, and thanks. Don't have any tattoo's and never will.
@@DoctorMotorcycle
Said every guy currently sporting 100 tats! 😏
@@DoctorMotorcycle Great!!👍
Whats the deal with tatts? People hate those now?
Drip is in the eye of the beholder
I loved watching the entire build. I don’t usually sit down to watch anything more than about 20 minutes at a time but this video kept me captivated. Great work man!!
Awesome, thank you!
Yup, same here! I went through half a pound of peanuts and couple of beers :)
hey... My name is Peter Butler. I did a double take when I checked your post! :P
I can't believe I watched the entire video! You kept it interesting. I grew up modifying 60's and 70's 2-strokes, but haven't done besides maintenance in many years! This video was an inspiration as I look to retirement! Very good job on filming and editing and keeping folks engaged!
@@DoctorMotorcycle Thank you. But, is this electronic ignition having any boost sensor, to decrease the pre-timing ignition towards the Boost , or not ? Thank you 4 your work. Pwy from old Eu.
All of your electrical work is neat and tidy, and I love how the whole thing looks. Well done Sir!
I believed I was a very patient and tireless technician but you my friend wore me out ! This is an absolutely incredible project and the fact that you finished it, is even more incredible (many similar projects are still sitting around waiting for that vigor and enthusiasm to return to bring them to completion ) CHEERS !!
One of the most impressive home rebuilds i've seen... Plenty of bikes look great (this one is no exception), but the exhaust rebuild and adding a turbo put this one in the top tier. So much talented work displayed here. Thanks for the video.
Definitely not a "home rebuild." This was done in a well equipped shop bye someone who works on bikes for a living. Still a great build.
If American Choppers focused on this instead of drama, they'd still be popular.
Have you seen the welds?? A semi blind monkey would have done it better! :D
One badass build. I loved it. You killed it with basic tools. Much respect. Keep on wrenching.
A few things that stood out for me:
1) He did everything with Harbor Freight tools and other equipment that anybody, like you & me have in the garage.
This kid didn't need $100,000 in top-of-the-line tools and equipment. That is REALLY refreshing. I mean he put the motor back in on his garage floor, for Gods' sake.
2) No goofing around, just stripping it down, going over everything to diagnose what needs to be done, and he does it.
3) A Turbo?!. Holy Shit, nice!
I must say, BRAVO dude, BRAVO!
I subscribed and liked as fast as I could hit the buttons!
This kid rocks!
And, oh yeah, by the way...14 & 1/2 MILLION VIEWS. nice...
I don't mind the ads. The video is super quality with excellent editing.
Watching someone with the skills to take a bike apart, the wiring (as if it's nothing!), the engine (ditto) then creating new seat, handlebar controls, instruments, rewiring , carburetion, everything needed for a turbo. It's fascinating! This is the second if your vids I've watched. I will rewatch them.
Thank you.
Not gonna lie, this build totally blew me away and made want a matte black and super rad Scrambler.. well done!
Thanks!
@@DoctorMotorcycle When you honed the cylinders did/do you put new piston rings in of the stock original size? Or go up in size, I have a 2000 Buell I wanna get back on the road. It has borderline compression, just barely enough to be considered good. (If it was supposed to be between 100 & 120 it was reading at 100psi) Would I lightly/properly hone the cylinders then use new stock size rings? (I'm still learning)
If that bike was for sale how much?
@@michaelbrinks8089 normal standard size piston rings assuming your pistons and liners are still within tolerance.
@@skippyguy3 Thanks 4 reply...I want to get a 1250cc big bore kit but costs too much for me right now. The aftermarket 1250cc kit is supposed to have beefier cylinders that can handle higher HP. I read the stock HD sportsters cylinders were never meant to handle 100+ plus HP and overheat/wear too easy on Buells. The bikes have engineering flaws.
Very inspiring work!
As a metal fabricator and welder for 45 years I'd like to pass along a couple tips that may help. I know in my shop they are absolutely essential.
Get a handful of Vise Grip clamps. I use an 11r style probably 90% of the time. Get some deep reach smaller ones also. WAY, WAY faster than C clamps!
Also work at getting comfortable using a 4-1/2" angle grinder and get some recessed hub .045" thick cut-off wheels, 4-1/2". It takes a little experimenting with the various hubs that come with the grinder, and I've altered the depth/thickness of the 5/8-11 nuts and spacers, and even ground down the spindle a thread or so. The purpose is to get the outside face of the cut-off wheel totally flat so no part of the spindle or mounting nut is exposed. When done properly you should be able to cut things off flush. This is assuming you use the "ALL NEW INVISIBLE GUARD"
You'll like this way better than the die grinder with a small wheel as it gives you much better depth and you don't end up needing to tilt the grinder as much to finish the cut. Plus it's much easier to follow a line.
When you were cutting out the flange try to lay it out using one of the straight sides of the piece. Less waste and you eliminate a good chunk of the cutting!
And lastly,( for now! 🤪) Get a couple of good tap handles.
I bought several really nice ones at a flea market for about $5.00 each. A larger two handed one is great for big stuff and the others like I bought are two sizes of the smaller T handle style. Much easier to get things going straight.
Hope this helps, and you have helped me get motivated to start back up on my 1980 KZ750 TWIN Cafe conversion. Stretched swingarm, WP monoshock from a 990 Duke, Ninja front end ( forthcoming) rearsets and upswept pipes. Yeah it's a work in progress. Those pesky Beta dirt bikes and trials bikes keep clamouring for my time, those rascals!!
Duly noted, thanks!
@@DoctorMotorcycle I really liked how you kept the big picture in view. My work over the years has been a lot of high end architectural metal fabrication in stainless, bronze, aluminum and steel. Curved stainless and glass railings, bronze gates in a cemetery, custom steel and cable rails, sculptures, etc.
And the problem I always seem to have is overthinking things too much. And needed in some cases with what I needed to make, but when it's for myself I have a difficult time choosing a path and commiting to it. I liked how you didn't worry about fit and finish until after the important parts were done. I turned 60 last year ( feel like I'm 40 !) ( Dirt bikes help, and being single!) but I'll tell you I could learn from you, and that's coming from a stubborn Norwegian bachelor welder!😉
@@jacko4483 Thank you again. Thank you also for the advice and compliments.
I'm sure as a welder it's pretty obvious to you I'm an amateur at welding. Some of these posts on here about my lack of welding skills just wreak of arrogance and condescension. It's a cheap shot because It's one of my few weaknesses.
I actually just purchased a chop saw, so cutting pipes nice and flush will be a breeze in the future. A mandrel bender, manual mill, and manual lathe are coming hopefully near the end of the year (I'm a machinist by trade).
I look forward to hearing from you in the future builds Jack!

Vice clamps, was what I was going to comment, they really come in handy for jobs like this. Really enjoyed watching the build though, awesome job.
One of the 10 best motorcycle videos I've seen. Right up there with On Any Sunday. Read your response to questions and that
a lot of the time the first solution needs adjustment - but one must carry on. That you're philosophical about it speaks volumes.
Thanks for the video and the thought...
Almost 20 yrs ago, i had a Suzi GS450. 1980-82 (can't remember). I was always tearing it down for fun. Took the pistons out and lightened them up about 10% from the inside, making sure to maintain balance. I threw in some GS500 cams which made a difference. Drilled holes through the cylinder fins (making sure I was actually increasing surface area - too big a hole and you reduce it). had the head ported and polished and valve seats lapped, remade a lot of fasteners out of titanium and aluminum. I was in college and my dad had a lathe and end mill. I loved that bike. I ended up revving the piss out of it and blew a conrod bearing.
I was always confused about the choice to use a 530 chain. Way overkill and heavy.
Anyway, I enjoyed your video, all the little bits and bobs "under the hood" were mostly familiar.
One Very Talented dude!! brought something that was dead ,back to life!!! and even better!!! blows my mind !!
Im very respect anyone who make video like this. Imagine how many time he has to set the camera, then work the motorcycle. Only 1 word, salute!
I have never left a comment on any video, but I had to say how much I enjoyed the videos on this build. I appreciate all of the ups and downs, as this is always the real case when doing anything like this! Keep it up!
I watched the complete video with utter silence and utmost dedication to observe the load of things that has been worked upon before getting the wonderful machine working again smooth and in entire new attire… amazing, hats off to you bro.
Excellent build mate! Really enjoyed watching this. You did a fantastic job, well done!!
That thing is out of this world classy , gorgeous , and never used that word to ever describe a bike or piece of art , marvelous 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙀👍🏼
I was a little confused by the order of repairs. However, knowing the amount of time, work, thought, and trial and error that goes into a project like this, plus the added time, work, and thought that went into creating a video from project start to finish, it really didn't matter. I understood it all in the end, and loved every minute of it along the way! Great job.
Cool hot rod bike. Even though the Doctor is obviously a very experienced motorcycle mechanic, and is super-efficient at getting through the various tasks (I doubt anyone could do it faster), there is _so much_ we didn't see. Even a 'quick and dirty' project like this, done by an expert, takes a hell of a lot of effort. But, again, very cool bike. I am inspired to get after my own projects.
I believe everyone's got a skill in them but this guys got multiple, awesome job and outcome, pleasure to watch👍🇬🇧
I love how these time lapse videos lapse even faster with 2x playback. Great build!
Seu trabalho de restauração é fantástico... parabéns....👏👏👏
This guy is very talented. Glad to see their are young people out there that can still work with their hands
This should be titled ( the most satisfying bike restoration ever ) amazing job, makes me want a project... 🔥🔥🔥
An electric carving knife goes through upholstery foam like a hot knife through butter. Great work! This is an awesome build.
I love the clean looks and overall design. Excellent in all aspects!
Thank you for doing this sort of videos without loud music!
Really impressed of your skills and the finished bike. Loved it!
The amount of effort and dedication that is put into building this bike, makes it priceless
Brilliant build. Love thats its a fairly low budget home shop type build. Turned out incredible. Does nothing for power, but a BOV would be cool just for the sound factor. I built an 70s Yamaha RD350 Cafe years ago, this just made me really want to build another bike.
Great design and video! It would be cool to have the big four companies recognize this design and produce something like this!
It sounds like it comes up on boost really well actually, great job man!
Thanks!
@@DoctorMotorcycle o
How much cost
Dr motorcycle is the eagle scout of motorcycle design and fabrication. Fiberglass , wiring, cylinder honing..... He probably walks elderly people across the street. My resurrected bikes have always been my favorites. There's really something special about firing up an abandoned bike.
Your method of making a custom seat pan is clever. It's simple, fast, and accurate. I'll be using it.
Thanks!
I like how you used on basic tools.
Beautiful creation..loved watching this build..maybe Youd look at making another video project talking us through so you could pass on your amazing knowledge and skill to us?thank you 🔱
I absolutely disagree with mounting the carburetor that way, that is, in the part of the turbine where it should "absolutely" blow air and that's it. In this way you have mounted the carburetor directly from the art where the turbine must suck only air, but in this case it sucks air and fuel. With the heat that a turbo gives off, I can only imagine what can happen to the air / petrol mixture. Great job you don't have (and it shows) experience with turbochargers. Vote 10 for the effort you put into the realization.
As long as the turbo has a carbon seal this isn't really an issue. Draw through turbo's have been around for a long time.
Coming from someone who has no clue on how a bike is stripped and rebuilt, this video was fascinating for me to watch the process and the outcome was fabulous. Well done sir.
The fact you did this all within 33 mins is insane
I know right.
He time lapsed it,actually he did this in 1 hour or more but its awesome
@@tasnimurrahman4564 1hrs 😂🙏
it’s actually slowed down. he did it in about 4.23334 seconds.
😂😂😂👍🏻
Had a smile at the end of it all, made me feel like it was my bike too! 👌🏻
Great job Doc!
I love that bike. It looks great, like it has an attitude of wanting to eat up hundreds of miles of dirt, and just keep on going. It looks solid, robust, and built to cope with anything it eats itself over. What a wee beastie indeed. Great work.
I watch lots of motorbike build on TH-cam..
But this captures the real heart of it all.
Brilliant sounding,Groovy looking
Mean machine!!
parabens pelo trabalho, que moto louca. Sempre quis fazer uma em casa.
You have a great skill set. It was extremely interesting to watch and I hope there are more. Thank You.
@@IOD_ worst skills seems much better than no skill at all. I have no idea how to weld let alone how to restore a motorbike
What an interesting video you granted us. Thanks 4 this. I like this bike really much - you did a great job. RESPECT!
It's great that you left the welds as they were and not sanded them smooth. That gave this cool Frankenstein look.
At 19 minutes in I had to pause and write a comment. I am so absolutely inspired by this I'm putting my shoes on as we speak to go out in the garage and start finishing projects and going for it and just beautiful man, thank you.
Wow, you did an outstanding job there bro. I love watching these type of videos.
Good job my friend . That was pretty badass. You're definitely a one man show and I think you have a lot of talent. The hell with team work.
You look like you've done this a hundred times. MAD MAX is the best ! You did a great job !!!
That tear down looked so intimidating. So many parts ! I have done minor work on my bikes, like change the ignition, etc.
I've got a GS550LT... I think I'm taking copious notes on this killer build!
That has to be one satisfying feeling at the end.
this is literally my dream motorcycle
Wow thank you my friend.
Appreciate your hardwork, skills, patience you are a machine doctor.
Thank you for lifting me up when I'm at my best and my worst. I promise to always return the favor. (Then reflect on times when you have each pushed each other to be better, or been there for each other.)
This is a crazy thing, well done.
Amazing build! Great fun to watch.
So did i.
One of the best DIY build I've seen in a long time, most people think it's easy to start a project like this, you are an excellent mechanic and builder, kudos from mexico
It’s easy to start a project like this- but not so easy to finish!🤣🤣
Just about the most interesting and compelling thing the Internet has brought us so far!
Thanks for this 👍
Great job on the build. Ignore the critics and keep on doing what you do. I made a living doing industrial mechanical, electrical and fabrication for many years. I'm retired now and restore vintage motorcycles. You have every right to be proud of your work 👍
Is it too critical to say that it should have a skid plate to protect that pan at the bottom front? It's a great build and a really cool motorcycle regardless.
@@douglasfrantzen3011 probably depends on what kind of terrain he's going to ride it in. He will probably put one on after all the work he went through to build it.
awesome build, and looks like you are in the right area to enjoy it.
I cant believe you read my mind....lol. I often sit and daydream about crazy ideas like taking a late 70's early 80's small CC forgotten motorcycle Tear it down and add a turbo and rebuild it to a whole new design. Crazy idea I have had for a longtime. No one would ever think to do that....lol BUT THERE YOU ARE ,you did it!!! Awesome video !!!
the cable management looks really clean, and the build looks awesome
So fun to watch this go from busted to beautiful! Nice work! Bet it’s even more fun than it looks 🤙🏼
Thanks!
Damn, I wish I had this kind of mechanical know how! That bike is beautiful!
Congratulations, brilliant workmanship. The engine looks perfect.
Fantastic mate! A real lot of work has gotten into this machine! I rode this bike when I was learning to drive.
A magnificent transformation of a tired Classic Suzuki. Beautiful engineering Skills and with results that compete with the appeal of a brand new CCM Spitfire.
Many thanks!
Looks more like the CCM Blackout.
That was great, man. If you were in our city, you'd be awarded every day as an artisan.
Don't think there is much "artisanian" quality over the weldings. Definitely not the nicest ones I've seen (they are bad).
@@henrikcarlsen1881 It’s not like he’s TIg welding the tubes together. I see all H Freight tools. I would let him work in my hobby metal shop. Build cars and motorcycles on occasion. Remember! He’s doing it. 👍
Just goes to show that precise engineering you pay for... dont mean shit when you can build a great bike like this! Good job!
That bike is so cool looking after its done 😎😎😎
I've always admired folks who have the skills to do that kind of mechanical work... Giving me the tools to do a job like that would be like giving a deer rifle to Stevie Wonder...

Amazing build, and it’s awesome to see something be made with so little tools but you need to practice with some of those welds
So little tools? Are you kidding?
He practically has an entire machine shop with fab & die.
One of the most amazing builds I have seen! You are very talented. Keep up the amazing work.
You are an incredibly talented person. I thought that I was good with bikes but I might know how to do a third of what you're doing.
Muito bom mesmo seu trabalho tá de parabéns 👏👏
Great build mate! Love it.
I owned a GS400 back in the 80's. Loved this video!
I bought my girlfriend an old Yamaha RD 400 40 years ago... I loved riding it home and then cleaned and tuned it up. She was able to give me a run for the money against my Suzuki GS 750... I'd love to see what kind of magic that Doctor Motorcycle could do with an RD... To make this old man smile...
I remember when the RD 350's came out. They were giving the 700cc classes fits back then too!
Я смотрел от начала до конца и кайфовал !
Hey man I love your videos, Just recently started watching and I just slow them down and do the repairs I needed just solely based on your straight-forwardness. Thanks a lot! You've made my bike building journey SO much easier!
Very very awesome and sick! Nice work. I would have cleaned those weldings though.
Well, this was just awesome, man. I’ve got an old DR370 that is like the “country” version of what you did here. I’m a huge fan of the fact that you are using Everyman tools representative of what most of your viewing audience will be working with. As a matter of fact I cursed that very same welder you did the pipes with just this afternoon. The damn thing works... ...but I still want to run it over! Cheers dude, thanks!
Thank you so much for showing the tedious details. Most of these type videos show you a newly acquired vehicle, a few clips here & there, a bunch of commercials (most of us can't afford to go ad Free on all the options that are out there) & they are done. I prefer watching how things are down.
congratulations, i love your work, you are wonderful
Brilliant. That's what I need to be doing. I just generally get them back up n running as standard or whatever form they are in. But I like your attention to detail in fabrication. Excellent!
This bloke KNOWS what he is doing! Excellent work.
This was so satisfying to watch. Nice result 👍
Thank you for uploading.
"A grinder and some paint make me the welder that I ain't." AVe
One time TH-cam suggests somthing good, damn that a killer looking bike, great job!!!
Thanks Tony
The skills you have are amazing. Free hand? I could watch this all day.
This is a truly awesome build and the video is a joy to watch. The bike looks amazing, only critique of the bike is that auxiliary oil line coming straight out the bottom is begging to be snapped off.
Awesome project and video and I liked your words on grit and determination. Good on you man. Subscribed!
