It’s a glorious big box
i ordered the big box and it came yesterday, i loved everything in it. although i couldnt read the writing on the recipe :(
@@enbychaos4943 yeah it was a bit hard for me to read as well but I’d never say that to Cheryl
Make a video on electric space wizard
I think you forgot the carb rebuild link
Moog's anecdote about the bike mechanics is the funniest thing I've heard all week!
These days even if you have a 'real' motorcycle, if it's over 10 years old most dealers won't work on it.
$500 for the bike and a great story 😅
@@RandomGuyDan that was always the way when I was a bike mechanic over two decades ago. Working at a dealer, all we did was servicing. It was boring, so I went and worked in one of the dirtiest, crappiest workshops in town. We did everything. Making it the best place to work,
That 3rd bike shop is a bloody legend.. If that was me I'd name drop them to everyone I know as thanks.
I love hearing about the ultra rough badass tough guys who do what they can to take care of others.
A real man knows how to show compassion without getting self conscious (even if that compassion involves loud swearing :P).. there is nothing tough about making fun of others.
I had a similar experience once when I was trying to sell my last bike, just needed a roadworthy and service, was feeling lazy so figured I'd pay for both at once rather than servicing it myself.. and the first shop I went to, helmet in hand, the guy was super condescending and basically pushed me out before I could say why I was there just like Moog's story. He seemed to assume I would be bringing in a cheap broken scooter to his 'fancy' harley and customs shop and just didn't care to talk to me.
Second place I go to, full of both street and custom built race bikes from Japan, Italy, Germany, was a small place with only a few people running it but many ongoing projects. Owner meets me in the driveway, I say I'm looking for a quick oil change and a roadworthy to sell it. He just nodded and asked what I was bringing in, as you would expect from a professional.. So I turned and pointed to the bike parked out on the street and he immediately perked up - was a Buell 1125r and he seemed genuinely excited to look over it as they're quite rare here. He gave me an up front dollar figure for the work, showed me where a nearby cafe was and said to come back in 45min. Wasn't even expecting to get a booking same day but as it was a quick job he was happy to do it immediately.
Sure enough barely more than half an hour later he rolls back into the shop on the bike and I follow him in, and we chatted about exotic bikes and the quirks of Buells for nearly another 10 mins before we parted ways.
For reference to any Brisbanites - Nippon Performance at the Gabba. Been a few years now since I was there but the consistent 5 star reviews speak for themselves, dude's a legend.
@@MotoCat91 yep, that third bike shop was the one I worked at. Sadly, it no longer exists. Original owner sold it to the bald bikie looking dude. And I think he’s now retired. I had to leave the shop sadly, as I had a few things go wrong health wise, followed by a bike accident that left me learning to walk again, followed by a divorce, and so on. But I remember Jay being a good boss and shop manager when I was at that shop in Alexandria. He looked after everyone.
37:55 The MCM “ghost” makes a return in the background 👻😜
I was trying to find a comment that mentioned it
@@williamhelps2128 Me too starts moving at 37:05
i saw this! haha what is going on there!?
See I was wondering if someone else noticed! I need to know what was happening
I've been watching MCM for 10 years... is this a thing??
Marty finally broke in one of their "innuendo" bits, never thought I'd see it.
This will go down in history
Moog actually broke him. 😂
Legitimately the first time thats made it to the internet i think.
😂🤣
Honestly I think we need some form of blooper reel. Uncut and uncensored, cuz that tirade of Moogs imo would be better if youtube didnt have this bs demonitize algorithm for curse words. Kids may watch, but the internet is vast enough most kids know more "offensive" words then someone 30 years older. But bleeping that stuff is mostly a moral thing. But i digress, I was genuinely caught off guard whilst giggling like an idiot while the bit was going.
I'm not sure people realise how important these little machines are, the freedom and ability they give to a person is absolutely immeasurable.
Nothing like a fresh MCM vid to calm my regular, mid-morning existential crisis.
Ah same, it's 4 in the morning here but I still have to sleep
It's only 3am? Relax and enjoy
Damn man I felt that too hard 😂
I mean, do we exist? I suppose it depends on what color pill Cheryl took that day. Either way, feel your pain a bit and wishing the best.
@@CdotPoppy timezones?
Postie bikes just doubled in price 😂 cheers mcm, I’m sure Cheryl will love the vibrations
Trail/Hunter and Super Cubs are also all rocketing in price thanks to the recent anime called Super Cub.
Annoyingly you cant go on a Cub video now without seeing thousands of comments from people talking about the anime, though its gotten more people into motorcycles at least so that's good I guess.
I actually bought a CBR125 R-5 from some dude for real cheap because he wanted to get money for a C90 because of it.
@@vinski_ they are excellent yeah, I'm tempted to get a c90 for around the town fun.
I lasted until about 20 mins in before I was checking out the prices here in the UK.
Course, I'd have to pass my CBT before I could drive it.
@@phuzz00 Also in the UK and I have also been looking.
I know here in the US those things go for bout $400 for the thrashed rough ones let alone a clean example like that one... but they are so easy to fix up and work on and will last forever
when you lube up your chain, I suggest you spray the inside of your chain where it runs towards the engine. Then you have several benefits: 1. your not spraying towards your wheels 2. the lube "travels" through your chain by centrifugal force instead of being flung of right away. 3. your rear sprocket will be way less messy. Last but not least do it after riding instead of before. The chain will be warm and the lube will spread much better and the solvents will evaporate until you ride the next time. Again preventing the lube being flung of right away.
100%! also, never use the engine or powertools to turn the wheel while doing maintanence. If things go bad, you can easily be short a finger...
Brilliant!
Love how moog eats and wears things that they find from under the seats of old nuggets but still had to disinfect the seat so his ass don’t get germs 😂
Moog:"Hey Martin, I've got a magical hand!"
Marty:" Reasonably impressed"
🍻
How much editing went into that clip tho?
Do another one in one take, no cuts
@@lolodenver9899 the way they pull it off is do some random shit first and then call it in a second cut. Swap the takes to 2,1 and it looks like you did what you said you were going to.
@@nelsonhoover8462 🤯
@@nelsonhoover8462 I feel like this didn't need to be explained
@@Chuckie2k7 I think it's less obvious than it may seem. Doesn't hurt anything to explain.
10:25 - one of the best stories I've heard, had me in pieces :D, the mad biker mechanics sound like legends
If you play guitar, keep the string end clippings, they work great for cleaning small carb passages!
Man Moog has been on a real post-rock/metal kick recently and I am here for it.
37:37 The Mountain Bike in the background. I swear there's a poltergeist in the MCM shed! :))
Yeah I saw that bike move also I thought I was imagining it, clearly not!🤔
37:40 what’s worth the bike riding by itself? That throwing the hand bit was classic too I LOLed.
They seem to do it a bit, always fun seeing how haunted their shed is
I notice that too.....
Just seen that too 😂😂
You can see the cable in the upper left corner moving. Then towards the end of the video @48:50, you can see it's on some pulleys, so someone was just messing with it. lol.
Yeah saw it too. At first I was all like ” wtf” then i remembered which show I was watching 😅
I want one! They look like fun.
Moog always starts the “naughty” talk, good one dude.😆
Also anyone see that their ghost is moving the bike on the back wall!?
Yes I did, crazy
on minute 37, the bicycle moves up
I would 100% buy one if I didn't live in a region with proper winters. Looks like a load of fun! But I wouldn't want to invest in a vehicle that would be abandoned in storage for 8 months every year.
Freaked me out for a sec
Man, the story of this bike and the 3 shop journey for the fixing its just the essence of MCM.
I lost it exactly when Marty did 😂. Best duo on TH-cam. So good together.
You know that point in Gran Turismo when you have all the money and have completed all the goals so you spend your playtime building up all the low end vehicles in the game?
We're there now.
Me today, customizing a Faggio in GTA Online...
That's actually how I've always played Gran Turismo.
The stupid fast cars get boring really quickly.
Moog and his hoodie is the best thing ever, if it still works it still works. I have a lot of clothes that I have had for over 15 years, some kinda busted (like his hoodie), some still in decent shape, but I just can't get myself to get rid of it. It's wasteful and some have memories/emotional value, I can really appreciate the way Moog does things. I only recently got into watching MCM but these guys really are something else and I'm loving it. I love getting to know little things about them in all the videos, like an onion slowly peeling back layers but instead of tears it gives me big smiles.
The power of editing. Moog just throws it anywhere and makes it sound exciting and then Marty gets a single shot acting like he requested specific details on what happens LMFAO
36:30 - watch the mountain bike in the background.
I'm used to something weird falling down randomly in the background, but the mountain bike slowly rising in the background was weird, even by MCM standards.
I just noticed this too
there is a rope dangling 38:14 :D hahaha
I always thought the weird things were a set up for them to move to a new workshop. It’s definitely connected to something, you can see the front wheel and hear it click and rest at 37:23
Glad someone else spotted this too! I was like "haunted workshop?"
I was just wondering wtf was going on there!
"You drop some Acid and you go Pig hunting, It's the best!". LOL. That's exactly what I thought the guy that got his cub stuck way out in the wilderness must have been doing. Acid! Just NUTS!!
I'm still not clear if that guy was referring to hunting wild pigs or going cruising for fat chicks.
This is why I love mighty car mods just two lads having a laugh.
I love these bikes. They are the tank of the bike world. Next to impossible to kill, easy to repair, parts are still everywhere, and so much fun.
Back when I was a mechanic, one of techs had a 90, one of the other guys kept sneaking fuel into it. The owner was baffled as to why it used NO fuel for over a year. 😂
Such a nice prank to play on him
Good one 😀
Moog’s hoodie is now “vintage”.
Loved the episode. Nailed it about vehicles. It’s not about the best or fastest. It’s about having fun. They should make us smile. The experience.
loved the metal music during the video
That storytime section about the bike shops was probably the 2nd best Mighty Car Mods moment ever.
Electric Space Wizard's still first haha
This is what I love! Back and forth, nit-picking on each other and the acid dropping pig hunter?? The perfect blend of shenanigans and tech talk! I am a HUGE fan!!!!
Moog, your scoring and implementation of it in these videos is legendary, thank you for what you do!
This whole episode reminded me of how I started modifying chicken chasers (Honda 90, Yammy 70 step through's) welding steel plate onto the pressed steel forks to stop them collapsing on the dirt trails. A Ford Escort alternator belt driven to the flywheel would power two 40W halogen headlights for nightime dirt excursions. Great memories of rolling up to the local hole-in-the-wall at 3am in a bronze Cortina with two chicken chasers leaking petrol onto the roof and having burgers with the police that had spent half the night chasing us round the forest!
Imagine having so much of an ego that you turn business away. that's like one customer that will NEVER return to your shop again even if he was to get a _'proper bike'_ . big jobs might pay well, but its the small jobs that help keep the business alive.
Guys that turn work away like that don't care....
@@jonathanwright5550 thats just bad business attitude.
As a business owner you should be trying to connect with just about everyone that walks in because its not just their future custom but the custom of their friends and their family when they leave the store with a positive experience.
If doing that small job means another 5 or 6 people walk through the door with more work for you as result of that guy recommending your services then you have done a great job.
I used to do custom system builds and PC repairs as a side hustle a few years back but i stopped because getting parts in was becoming a headache due to the hardware shortages. Dealing with it and paying the silly inflated prices and trying to source other parts just wasnt worth the hassle so I shuttered it.
This was about 3 or 4 years ago and im still getting random phone calls from people who got my number from someone else asking if i still do repairs and system builds.
I had to do a lot of mundane jobs like cleaning out dirty laptops that were constantly over heating but crap jobs like that got people talking and recommending me to other people.
The worst part about it is that, instead of admitting that small bike repairs don't pay well and that's why they don't wanna work on the bike, they BLAME the guy for not having a "proper bike" and use that as an excuse. Talk about a business having a narcissistic ego and gas-lighting a customer.
I bet the bluster was just to hide the fact they didn't know how to fix it. Moog dodged a bullet there.
You know you've made something good, when the design doesn't change for 20+ years an no one asks why.
Loved the concept of magic hand... recording the event before the challenge.... that gave me ideas for some fun videos of my own for the family... Thanks mates. And I loved the bike.. Looking at the beauty my "Axle" Rose.
Marty, "Seriously, all you need is something battery operated. Fixes everything." Wise words. Applies to many life situations.
I’m a bike and car lover, and I actually I think a “Mighty Bike Mods” channel would be a blast ! Even if I think you guys have already a lot of work with this channel.
Keep it up!
I would fricken love a MBM channel
"Mate there's nothing like it... you drop some acid, jump on your postie, and go pig hunting... it's the best." - Possibly the most cooked line I've heard on this channel?
"That was really well enunciated , now STFU and help me get it off the truck" lmaoooo
I was a postie between 1989 and 2001, I had three CT110's. My delivery area was super rough, they never missed a beat.
Good to see the ghost back, levitating the bike is next level!
First time I've seen you guys crack up during your little innuendo interludes :) 'so many guys have been in here before' haha
13 min in and with that story of the mechanics this may already be one of the greatest episodes of mcm yet
Yes, absolutely! And the innuendo teamwork-skit was the best one of all time too! :)
My 16 valve 4 banger cylinder head is laying on my bench for a complete valve job and repair.
Apparently I had to pull out the frame my bike's engine during mid summer, It's not a track day season thankfully, so I'll be ready until mid September!
I really enjoy you guys, you're my favourite duo, fixing a motorcycle!!! ROCK ON!!😎
LOT'S OF LOVE FROM GREECE !!!
Motorbikes, Magic Hand, Crazy Biker Stories, Pervy Banter and the Ghost moving the pedal bike.... AWESOME!!!! PMSL
That story with the mechanics made me tear up with laughter 😂
This video alone as Half a million views, dude each of there video is like making them tons of money. I’m so happy for MCM!
My grandad left my dad a Honda Cub 90 and my dad’s passed it onto me so when I saw this video I got a little excited but overall, this is one of the best videos you’ve ever made, I laughed so much when Marty cracked 🤣
37:40 the bloody push bike hanging on the wall starts going up on its own..
I just noticed that and was looking for a comment. What is that about?
Every vid made in the new shed has something eery happening in the background.
I SEEN IT TOO IT MOVED A LOT
@@antontaylor4530 We can see the string in the upper left corner as someone behind the camera pulls it up. :)
@@retrorabbitstudios So is it a gag? A running joke I missed?
What is the metal song around the 34:30 minute mark.....hands down one of my favorite shows
Plus 1 on this; there’s no identification available through Siri either
2nded
+1 🤘
Anyone who has the answer to this question yet?
Pretty awesome jam....want to find out more about the band
The story of this thing getting repaired is worth watching the whole video! MY SIDES HURT!
I almost wet myself listening to the motorbike repair service story. Always entertaining, thanks lads!
The centre stand was super necessary when you’d loaded 30 or 40 kilograms of mail on. You needed it to be loaded centrally so you didn’t drop it on the kerb every time you climbed off.
Didn’t know this, thanks!
@@mightycarmods thanks for posting this epic rebuild video. I wish I’d kept one of my bikes from my postie contract days now
It makes me immensely happy to see another cheap and fun vehicle on the channel, the under dogs (like the Lancer's) have underrated value!
Funnest and funniest video in a long time fellas
I used to deliver newspaper on this in Japan, even in snow and typhoon, fell in love with it and ended up buying 50cc Little Cub. $2 worth of high octane petrol last forever, such a good mileage.
Can't believe you hadn't told us the story about the bike mechanics earlier! That's just hilarious!
Marty's informative explanation of ultrasonic cleaning fluid, 33:01 containing things like sirfucktents. LOL 😋
Brilliant as always, cheers. 🙂👍
The innuendo finally defeated Marty 🤣
YO, the world of TH-cam is still waiting for the "In The Bin" remix Sir! Nice toss of the hand MJ.
After years of watching mcm I still can't tell if they prepare these innuendo bits or if they just happen. First time I see Marty crack during one though!
So someone tries and fails to steal your bike, police find it, then YOU have to pay $1100 to get it back? Who is the thief in this story again?
Victims always get bent over east and west
I love motorcycle episodes ! Started screaming at my laptop when I thought we wouldn't see you ride it !
Thanks for sharing guys !
I was doing some stretching while watching this and almost blew out my back when I burst out laughing at the “This bit’s messed up because so many people have been in here before,” line in the middle of a deep stretch.
Finally character broken during a bromance situation! Marty I cracked up at the same moment dude!
@•••ʀᴇᴀᴅʏ for L!VE [S]EX••• 😂 Fair point! Perhaps he values his polished ring more than his bearded face hole lol!
Moog is a sniper with that strong hand… 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Yes!!!!!! I just bought one of these, and they're absolutely fantastic!!!! Mine is a 1984 US model with the 2 speed. Was sitting since 1987 and I got it running in 5 minutes. Wish I could get a set of those Aussie postal saddlebags
When you say 2 speed, do you mean it has 2 total, or is it the high-low gearbox? My '74 CT90 has the high-low gearbox and it's an absolute weapon on the trails. I've never found something it couldn't climb.
@@bavarianbanshee yeah, same engine as that. 4 speed dual range
Yes! Epic vehicle choice. These things will drive to the edge of the world and back without a hassle
The Supercub is actually legendary. Best selling vehicle of all time. Featured on Top Gear three different times, and could not be killed. Hell, they even pulled the oil out and ran it on used chip oil.
Glad yours is back to life.
My bowel movement is in sync with your uploads lately
Guess we must be synced up Matt Jose.
Same here, always seems to be when I'm at work too, what a shame.
That's what you say to ya boss!
Last time u pooped was 6 days ago? u need fiber bro
It must have been tough for you when MCM took that month-long break over January.
Best bike ever. My favourite thing to do back in the day was to have it on the centre stand and click it into 4th and slowly lean back and make massive smoke clouds.
Love the mechanic shop story from Moog. Super cool shop that ended helping young Moog out!!
" i think it's just messed up cause so many people have been in here before, like it's a mess! " moog.....What a quote
What a crack up, the magic hand was quality too
i like how Moog's says to use the right torque specification then proceeds to say ""till you feel the washer crush"
03:25 Moog, i feel you! I kept my Halo 3 hoodie until the zipper broke on it. If it works, don't question it!
Controversial opinion but I think I enjoyed the 2nd one more.
Postie bike, great stories and precision monkey paw thing throwing. That’s why I’m still here a decade later.
Kudos to you Moog on compliments for Marty He does seem like the type of guy who would return your car in better condition than wen he borrowed it 👍🏼
This is so great! I recently got my Honda Grom (complete with Chopped fingers) running after a couple years off the road and it's so cool to see you guys working on what is essentially the evolutionary predecessor to my bike. Small engine love! You don't need big cubes to have a good time!
I want a Grom but not really sure where I’d ride it. Just looks like a good time.
There's so many mods for these bikes , including brand new engines with 190cc and 5 speeds , thicker wheels , bigger tyres etc etc
Would be cool to see you guys build one of these up to be a street ripper :)
I’m curious about those eBay /Amazon engines myself
We used to use Lifan engines as upgrades on these and the Z50’s. Other than that, heaps of mods if you know what parts to look for in the world scene. In Australia we weren’t lucky enough to get all the postie type bikes available in the world market. Suspension upgrades were done by importing a few Honda Astrea (front end, disc conversion, rear shocks, swing arm and 2 seater).
@@tightenurscrews the zones zongshen 190cc engines have a good rep , I know someone with 10k on theirs and its been fine , I will say though , they really need a bigger carb that what they normally supply with it really wake it up :)
marty going "seat level" was the best part of this video!
Easily one of my new favourite MCM videos, brilliant stuff boys.
For anyone who doesn't know, this bike is featured in an amazing anime called "Super Cub." I can't recommend it highly enough. I'm so glad to finally see another bike on MCM, even if it still isn't a Kawasaki. Looking forward to this one!
Such a wholesome anime
Moog and his hoodie = me.
Marty = my wife.
I can relate.
Me too
(48:20) I totally agree with that Marty. This is all the fun and relaxation without the stress of the gazillion-horsepower-builds that we all seem to have to have.
One of your best episodes. Interesting vehicle and good teamwork.
YES! My first motorcycle and ground up rebuild. Got when i was 16.
This episode was awesome! I was really bumbed about hearing about those a**hole mechanics treating a customer that way, but props to the bald hardcore dude for setting the record straight! As a future mechanic I'm embarased for them! Great episode with a nice simple build, giving life back to a great bike! Have a good day people!
you absolute legends... posties are gold... have 2 of them, rebuilt them from scratch.....
Ahhhh the CUB postie bike dance at the end there. I remember it well
Just watching this as the postie went past delivering mail in nz! This was a first project with my brother and Dad which we built a go kart using the CT 90 version.
Did the same project with my Dad and brother years ago. And am also a kiwi. Good times.
Despite the channel name and as a OG viewer, I really appreciate and enjoy the motorcycle content.
Wouldn’t be opposed for some more two wheel builds.
Love you guys, thank you for being you.
I LOVE the enthusiasm. This is the best antidote to that first E30 video (which I'm still sore about - LOL).
Just bought one to work on, keen to drop some acid and go trail hunting on it when it’s finished!
Reiko-chan's gonna agree with this!
a small bike like this is perfect to get back into repairing and restoring .. especially for someone like me who was away from the hobby for too long xD … i bet i’ve already forgotten half of what i learned over the years … xD need to start at the beginning .. again …
The music at 36 mins. Is awesome!
Moog: "If you're torquing things up to the exact specifications that can give you and inaccurate torque setting"
Also Moog: doesn't use a torque wrench
Moog: "You drop some acid....." Marty: He didn't just say that, no, he didn't!
We totally need a postie challenge episode. Racing, off road, obstacles, etc.
Had an orange ct90 when I was a teenager. Had the best time on it. No matter how much thrashed it, it kept going and going and going.
