    You know, I really don't think you have the proper idea on your tool storage. All the tools should be tossed about on the floor, the workbenches, the shelf spaces, etc. At least, thats what all the other repair shops, and restore shops on youtube do! Regards from Canada 🇨🇦 😂

    As far as "it's not as detailed as I would have hoped" I think you nail the balance in your videos where there's sufficient detail yet the pace of the restoration that ends up in the edit is on point.

    Oh no, the bearings are in the wrong place, I had to rewind it to catch it when you put the axle back in. I'm glad to have you back with us, we missed you. Still, I believe that quality trumps quantity. You, sir, have that in spades. It's great seeing you doing what you do best, and we’re all here to enjoy it.

Once I had found a set, it made better than 65 BHP at the wheel. I sold it to finance the 1st refurbishment of my RC30. I regret selling it. It might not have looked much but mechanically it was mint.

    I was lucky enough to have owned an RC30 for a while back in the early 90's and rode it on the roads in the UK. I am sure most people thought it was an NC30 as the only visible difference for your average person would be the 750 on the tail instead of 400. I have had many much faster and more modern sports bikes since, but the RC30 is still the best bike I have ever ridden overall. It was hard to describe in one word. The best I can come up with is 'silk'.

    I'm subbed to Bad Obsession Motors, mate, so trust me, the "delays" between your episodes are absolutely nothing to worry about.

    Found your channel due to my interest in VFR's. Subscribing due to your excellent work and video production. Nice job, sir!

    Well, that was a treat and a half! The standard by which all other restoration channels are judged.

    School boy error on the bearings, we've all been there done that... Also I noticed you do the same as me with the hole in the grease tin lid for the brush!! Brilliant stuff, keep it up!

    You get “rebuilders”, and then you get “restorers”. This man is the latter and a master of his craft. Can’t wait for the next episode already

    Have had the privilege riding one of those NC30 VFRs what an amazing bike. Ported a pair of heads for it and we did some other work to it as well.

      good morning from Germany.
      what would you like to discuss that I find your videos very good and interesting?
      I think it's very nice that your videos are shown in peace and there isn't too much music in the background😀

    I'll add to the many comments about quality over quantity.
    The length and execution of these vids is therapeutic. I hope you can keep it going for many years to come.

    Would love to purchase an old motorcycle here in NYC and use your videos as a guide to restore it... Something I would enjoy doing with my kids in the future!

    So glad to see what was once such a beautiful bike in such good hands. I wish it was me that was going to end up with the final product.
