I normally end up skipping through these types of videos to speed up the watching time, I’ve never once skipped a second of yours! Love the channel please do the frame in the standard colour unless the bikes going to be dripping in bling then go for something unique.
Wow, wish I had the time, patience and knowledge of fabrications. All my bikes would be soooooo Lit! Good job man, you should make 10 more and sell them.
back in the day we would drill stops for front end swaps on the ATCs, Your idea works, lotta extra time then a threaded in stainless Allen bolt stop, or welding a new stop onto the frame.
I really hope your sub count and views pick up a bit soon, your production quality is amazing. I have watched all your videos and i love them. But i wish you would do an older Suzuki one day, Like an RM500 or something. (I have an old ts185 ER)
Great video can't wait for the next! I know you didn't want to molest the RMZ clamp but I was wondering if drilling and tapping the clamps contact points, and then adding threaded tabs to extent the contact points would work? Or would it negatively effect turning radius? Thanks again for the video
That was one of the other options. Probably my next preferred solution. The problem with that is the contact point on the frame would end up having the paint chipped off and looking untidy. Also, the extended points would hang out a fair way...
@@G9Garage thanks for the reply . Armchair quarter- backing I didn't consider the poor paintjob,lol. I am gathering pieces to convert front suspension on a XR650L with Crf450/ Showa,unit . Keep up the great work. Your build is right up my alley
Nicely done as always, so much satisfaction watching this.. (i can almost see those backyard engineers who would just simple drill two holes in the triple clamp and put there a long bolt with lot of washers and nuts :D) but i want to ask you why you converted the front end? I know you mentioned reasons like better suspension, brakes etc. but wouldn't this modification drop the value a little bit? I mean if you had a stock front end which was repairable... anyways it's your bike just asking
Hi Timo, I don’t think it drops the value much. I wanted to see if it could be done and I like the challenge. One of the prerequisites was to make the modifications reversible so I can go back to original if I want to later. The 250 I recent built was nearly 100% OEM. The 125 will be a bit different! Thanks for watching.
Awesome work mate, another cracking vid. Hey, ive just got a question for you..... some of my Z50's have small dints in the metal tanks. Do you have any ideas how to get them out??
Hey J Gold thanks for watching mate! I used to have a bunch of Z50s! Love them! Short of body filler, I’ve seen tanks cut open, the dents beaten out and the welded up. Never done it myself though...
Gday G9, thanks for the response. Yeah cool, ive also heard of filling them up with water then freezing them, and the expanding water pops the dint out, but ive also heard that can split the open. Any ways, the dints anen't too big, so i may just leave them. I love Z50s also, I have 12 in total... some really nice ones too. Id absolutely love if one day you did a resto on one... especially the z50r. I could with bikes/parts etc. Have a think. Cheers mate, and i cant wait till the next episode. JG
@@JayGoldNuggets I would say that would depend on how much water. It would be a fine line between enough, and too much. But measure how much water it holds... calculated this with the % that water expands and you could get a good idea. Not enough at first is better than too much.
Hello Im impresive about your job I must to ask about one think I rmz lover and i have with my rmz450 2006 small problem Problem is cylinder head Can you recomend me someone from EU ho can have good parts for this bike ? Im from Sweden and is preaty hard to get something even on eBay
It would have been easier to apply some heat to the tank with hot air blower. Suzuki plastic tanks are easy to modify with heat so it won't destroy the looks and you wouldn't have decreased turning radius. Done that and never had any problems with it.
This guys personality and creativity is perfect I love this channel so much. THIS is quality
Best mx restoration channel ever… addicted 🥰
I wish you were my neighbor. I love this type of work . Thinking out of the box is what its about. So cool.
This guy seems really smart, and his access to some really high tech tools should make this build epic!

Pretty sure the only dirtbike channel on youtube that rivals you is camerom niemela. Keep up the good work!
Yeah, but Cam doesn't have a machine shop at home.
Wow, wish I had the time, patience and knowledge of fabrications.
All my bikes would be soooooo Lit!
Good job man, you should make 10 more and sell them.
Perfection is one thing, this is another level!!!!!! Absolute awesome!!!!!
watched two of your vids today. great production quality, and I appreciate the along-the-way narration. instant sub.

this reminds me so much of the show "hows it made" but better.
The filing buttons are a top idea. Thanks for posting.
i like the cut of your jib. I am restoring a 99 cr80 big wheel at the moment and am doing the same stuff!
more please. : ) best moto restoration on youtube.
Love the craftsmanship!
I mean the 92 had great forks on it, not sure if i would have switched it out. I love watching this, one of my favorite bikes i owned back in the day.
Another excellent video by G9Garage!
You are a master of your craft. It was nice to watch) Waiting for more (Greetings from Russia)
That is some bad ass work. Must be nice having SoldWorks at home. 😉
Can't wait to see it finished.
Cheers man. The SolidWorks license I have at home is some free student version. Works good for what I use it for though!
@@G9Garage did you have to draw the model of lower triple clamp, or did you get it from Suzuki?
Mate, that is next level ! Amazing work
A true motorcycle engineer absolute legend love it!!!
Paint it yellow. So you have 2 matching Rms.
Attention to detail is immpecable as always. Man its so great when I see a notification for your vids. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic job mate good stuff.
My favorite channel! Fantastic attention to detail.
Isn’t this go against every moral code to go against the evo? Glad to see another video 🤘😎
Yes, the music is back!!
So satisfying! True engineering
Just BRILLIANT!
Congrats.
Great job you never disappoint ! And BRILLIANT!
You are the best . I have one rm 92 very good bike

Another great video guys, great skills and I always learn something new from them
perfect, beautiful job as always !!!
Thanks for this tip, it help me a lot.👌
Another great video there, thanks for making it!
Perfect job love the smooth and rebuid process with some upgrade awesome! Keep going with big jobs ;)
Thanks for posting!

Finally love these videos
Yeah all you had to do was get 04 rm250 triple clamps.
Wouldn’t milling out the stock lower clams to fit new forks with 450 upper clamp work well?
This is what I'm talking about
Amazing!!
I love your videos and you sooo much

Keith Tarrier that’s actually a good idea. I’ll give it a go
Wow 😮 u are absolutely crazy good plz tell me u patterned that bolt on
😂 😂😂😂😂 trying to blow off ur shavings then realising I’m watching a vid ...
Great video!
Fantastic.
Do you need to adjust the rear shock for the new front end??
Good job i love Suzukis
Amazing videos
Very good!
Show, good look project!
Hey mate im thinking of doin a conversion on my rm 250 97 how much difference you recon
Nice vid very nice u are very smart
Did you think sandblasting would weaken or warp a steel frame?
No. All good.
I have a Suzuki TS200RP 1992/93. Do you think the conversion would work on mine as well? Thanks
I think it would. Not sure though...
Hello
Im impresive about your job
I must to ask about one think
I rmz lover and i have with my rmz450 2006 small problem
Problem is cylinder head
Can you recomend me someone from EU ho can have good parts for this bike ? Im from Sweden and is preaty hard to get something even on eBay
Try www.cmsnl.com
dope!
Good idea
Hi dude ! I wanna know how did you get your triple camps on Cao soft ? Did you draw it yourself or did you get the file directly ?
Hey! I did them myself
@@G9Garage great job man
WOW!!!
Two strokes only !
It would have been easier to apply some heat to the tank with hot air blower. Suzuki plastic tanks are easy to modify with heat so it won't destroy the looks and you wouldn't have decreased turning radius. Done that and never had any problems with it.
I know what color you should paint that frame yellow.
Plz do more vids
Hi I have a 1992 rm 125 would you sell me a stopper so I can upgrade my front forks
Those steering stopper are a mess have them on my bike and it makes dents in my frame
What are you going to do for the top mount of the number plate?
Good question! I just need to make a simple angle bracket.
@@G9Garage Will it be in next video?
are you the clickspring guy?
I wish I had 1% of his talent!
@@G9Garage you have his voice and nationality :)
Make more video
Is no longer genuine, isn't it?
No it's not. This build won't be an OEM style restoration.
@@G9Garage ciao, in this case you're right! Thanks for your answer.
Can you fabricate that part for me? You should sell them.
Only one colour in my book for that bike...do I even need to say🍌 😜😜
Purple?
Is clickspring your dad? 😝
