I had a cub in the 60s when I was a young lad, it took me back to those times, what an immaculate build, thanks for showing. I still remember its registration number it was OXV 96
1st bike i had was a sports cub NOJ 708F i sprayed the tank in union jack flag - man i loved that bike but i wasn't very mechanically minded and it fell into disrepair and eventually a 'friend' convinced me to sell it in bits to cromwell motorcycles in coventry for £30 so we could get some pot :(
I left the UK in 1965 and my friend had a brand new one of these bike. I loved it and you have done a beautiful job of restoring it.Thank you, a pleasure to watch.
Agreed. These skills are in short supply, and to be honest, our need as a species to stop making and consuming junk (in quality and character) has never been greater. Yes! I said it. Fixing and restoring our stuff is GREEN.
Skillset is one thing, this dude has ; a spotter, sandblasting equipement, a lathe, powdercoating equipement, pullers, spray guns, and so on. Stuff like that is hella expensive.

You're a magic mechanic. Beautifully edited and to get to that point, I'm surprised the basic materials held up. What a miracle, a success...a TRIUMPH!
You make restoring a bike looked so easy. I know it's far from that. The video and photography are just amazing. I can't imagine how much work it takes for you to do just one video like this. Man, if I only had 1/8 of your talent....
Everytime I see one of these restoration videos, it brings such joy to my life. These bikes are magicical time machines. I am beyond happy that you are doing this. Thank you.
Nice job done.. This brings me back to 1995 when I restored a 1971 Norton Commando 750 that had been in a damp shed in Pennsylvania for 17 years.. 700 working hours and FL. 12,000 (€5,500) later I could drive. Now, 29 years later and 71,000 km. otherwise still running well, no parts changed except tires, oil, filters... I'm still happy with it...
I watch all the videos from Restoration of Everything who do the same type of restorations. But after watching this video, Live With Creativity is my new favorite channel. He goes the extra mile to make the bike as near perfect as you can get. Amazing work!
I had a tiger cub when I was eighteen AVH 98 B it was a beautiful little thing If I won the lottery I would want this man to produce a another work of art beautifully done my friend
Thank you for restoring this little classic. At one time I had no less than 11 of these in a collection, had a Kawasaki triple 500 too and often my wife and I would trundle off on little Tiger Cubs for fun, she rode one as well. Grand little bikes, some well known riders started their careers on a tuned Cub, not many weak points if given a little loving attention. Wonder if. SL 7025 still exists. Did mine black and silver, mostly the earlier version with the contact breaker etc behind the cylinder.
@RestorationVideo 10 mesi fa this channel is a masterpiece. no loud intros no annoying music or talking. It is absolute mastery at its finest. Thank You
I don’t need to tell you how gorgeous the end result is. Watching this video I’m simultaneously struck by all the skills you’ve acquired to pull this off and thinking how much fun you were having while doing this restoration. I want to salute the monstrous patience you have to do everything and not succumb to the desire to rush to see results. Truly glorious.
I used to have a Tiger Cub. It was small and slow; but could climb any hill you pointed it at. The most fun of any of the old bikes I had. We used to joke that the thing only had about five moving parts.
Triumph Got Riguously New and Beautiful... A Fantastic Restoration of the Best I Have Seen.... A lot of Professionalism, a lot of Love and Dedication and Patience.... My Sincere Congratulations, and Thank You for being able to Learn.
Fantastic. Back in the day, the Tigercub wasn't taken as seriously as the larger models with most being owned by either very young men or old men who just liked to commute and stuff so many did not survive and so it's great to see you restore this one to as good a finish as Triumph ever did. It looks fantastic mate and you should be proud to take this old Tigercub virtually as scrap and restore her beautifully, I would be.
what beauty, no not the motercycle well its ok. No Im talking about the beauty of the craftmanship. I have tryed both and its a hell of a lot easyer to build somthing from scratch than to restore to make it as good as or better than new.
This has just taken me straight back to 1975 when I bought a very similar 1965 T20c (the C models had points ignition instead of a magneto) from a friend in the same village as me in Leicestershire. Mine had the slightly better looking chrome bowl headlight instead of the faired in headlight you have here. What an amazing job!!
I see your channel is from Pakistan. I have no clue of the economics of that part of the world, but I'd be willing to bet you'd be paid top dollar over here in the States my dude. You are a talent above and I respect your skills. Keep restoring these pieces of history and you'll continue to restore my faith in humanity. Thank you sir.
that bike runs great, sounds just like it should considering you neglected to put the piston rings and other crucial items in the motor, looks pretty and that's good enough for TH-cam.
That was fantastic, a classic lives again, thanks to you. I admire your talent and your tools, wish i had the gear, and the know how, to do that. Great stuff, cool bike.
I am without words, totally. Due to my disability, I know I could not rebuild that. Your test drive being so easy showed all your true love for motorcycles and how you care for things. My father gave me a 1979 Vespa P200e. 2cycle 150cc. Has oil tank and gas tank, it mixes itself. He bought it used and has only 800 total miles on it. He put it in a barn and kick started it often each year. Before passing he gave it tome as I forgot he had it. A lot of chrome(basket,rear rack, and such. Front fender dented slightly from a kid wrecking in gravel . Seat dry rotted. I pray one day to find someone to restore it. Rechrome the parts, buff out paint May work except front fender. Erwirke and the regular restore with solid bike! Vespa offered to restore for $8,000.00 (UN-SEEN). I CANNOT AFFORD NEAR THAT. I LIVE IN USA /GEORGIA. THAT IS (THE) ONLY THING HE GAVE. ME AND I LOVE IT! I JUST PRAY I CANGET IT RESTORED! WE ARE GOING TO GOLD BACKED CURRENCY THIS YEAR SOON 2023. Prices should drop drastically. Maybe then if I find someone as good as you are! Alton
Oh you are good. Oxy welding the mud guards. I learnt to do that in the late 1950s then at sometime the company brought a tig welder. Haven’t oxy welded for at least 55 years. I’m impressed
FANTASTIC, TRIUMPH TIGER CUB. MADE IN ENGLAND. FIRST BIKE I EVER RODE, LAST ONE WAS A TRIUMPH TIGER 110, ONCE YOU RIDE A TRIUMPH YOU STAY WITH TRIUMPH, GREAT VID, GREAT REBUILD.
A couple of thoughts on this rebuild come to mind. I did not see one drop of oil put on any parts during the engine rebuild, Normally you do not leave the parts dry as it would be running metal to metal until the oil pump circulates oil around all the parts! Also The frame and swinging arm were taken down to bare metal then the gloss coat was applied straight onto that bare metal? Other parts like the mudguards were bare metal but primed (with filler/ primer I presume ) before the top coat applied. Those things struck me as odd in an otherwise very good restoration! One final thing, It is a magic Tiger Cub!!! near the end we hear a cub running but it didn't have a key in the ignition now was there any exhaust smoke or shaking, (They all shake at tickover)!!!!!
Audio was a tad weird the whole way through and by the end turned into what sounded like a longer version of when he span the front wheel, or maybe not putting piston rings on the piston caught up with the lack of oil and he had to ride it with the clutch pulled in to stop it doing wheelies past the Honda C70 out of shot, anyones guess really, after all, for every old school front wheel silence is golden. tbh almost all of these type of video's have a lack of reality to a lesser or greater extent, the before pictures never seem real but somehow all look a similar level of unreal, i.e on this one what's left of the front wheel has been put back in the wrong way round and fire seems to have ignored the seat foam but taken a liking to melting seat vinyl on the petrol tank? still in the after I guess a 'wow, fantastic, great, beautiful, brilliant work' is all we're supposed to say.
This was my first motorcycle when I was 17 , bought from a Hells Angel for £40. It never looked as good as your restoration! Brilliant video recording.................
Amazing video! You make it look easy, which it possibly is when you're highly skilled, but even so it makes me want to get out to the garage and get on with my 1980 RD250E 'basket case'. Thank you 'Live With Creativity' for the inspiration!

I'm pretty sure that the triumph was not built with metric bolts! It was however a great little bike, and great restoration.
You are right (BSW) is an imperial bolt (inches not mm)
@@brucewilson6372 Whitworth?
@@Rick-zl3zpAlmost certainly whitworth.
Most of the fasteners would be BSCY , British standard cycle thread . On early 1960s Triumphs. After about 1968 Triumph switched to UNF and UNC .
Also spoiled by riding it around an industrial estate rather than out in the country. Down town India I presume
Oh you are good. Oxy welding the mud guards. I learnt to do that in the late 1950s then at sometime the company brought a tig welder. Haven’t oxy welded for at least 55 years. I’m impressed

An absolutely terrific restoration. Wouldn't mind owning it myself. Thank you for sharing.
The engine disassembly sequence reminds me of the Hagerty engine rebuild videos. High quality and beautifully executed. You earned my sub.
I wouldn't consider using open ended metric spanners on an old British bike, very professional.
Clutch plates were out of sequence, I believe.
