After an illustrious career in MotoGP, Dani Pedrosa retired in 2018. In honour of his retirement, Deus Ex Machina were asked to build a custom motorcycle for the likeable racer from Spain.
When he was asked to create a bike for Dani, Michael ‘Woolie’ Woolaway didn’t beat around the bush and it wasn’t long until he came up with a concept for a bike based on Dani's favourite motorcycle style.
For someone like Dani, Deus Ex Machina wanted to make this bike truly meaningful. With Dani being a Honda rider, it came as no surprise that the CR500 motor was the perfect centrepiece, fitted with a hand-built chromoly frame and body works that embodied a healthy mix of Americana and dirt track DNA.
The finished bike can only be described as a certified weapon - a custom sword for the ‘Silent Samurai’ himself - Dani Pedrosa.
Bike Specifications:
- 1985 Honda CR500 Motor
- Hand built Chromoly frame
- Davie Durelle adjustable triple clamps
- Ohlins 43mm Dirt track forks
- Race Tech hand built shock by Jimmy Wood
- DOT street legal Dirt track tires
- Lectron Carburettor / Hand built by the owner
- Saddlemen seat
- Body Work all hand made out of 1100 O Aluminum
- 19in Wheels build in SoCal at Dubya

Sensational! What a jem of a motor. Classic bike. Nicely done. I'll miss Dani on the MotoGP grid. A real sporting gentleman.
I LOVE that its a 2 stroke with the gnarly non power-valved Honda big block. That saxaphone pipe says it all.
I see a 2-stroke pipe, i click the button
It's a 2 stroke! Everyone loves a 2 stroke! Except for your neighbours.
And government...
And emissions (just a joke I love 2 smokers)
😂😂👌🤙
Will you reveal some action riding? Wanna see it on the track :)
Nice to see his dream bike is a 2 stroke
Those ape hangers at the beginning 😂, why anybody would want to ride a motorcycle in the position of Tarzan swinging from a tree is beyond me.
😂
I get pins and needles just putting my hand up in class, my arms would die riding like that.
its ugly as fuck
Its quite horrendous really.
Because they can't afford soap for their armpits
Dani pedrosa peaceful racer smily face in motogp history 💖💖👏👏
What a beauty. I am sure Dani will be proud to call it his own.
Wow Awesome! Love the end result!
Seems very fitting - honoring a very gifted rider and human being with something utterly unique, elegant and simple - Nicely Done!
A special build for a special guy .makes perfect sense x
Great video.....I’m a big Dani fan... great rider and a gent...
Ciao Dani, sarai sempre un GRANDE!!! Tutto il mio rispetto!!!
I love everything about Dani & the bike is awesome...
That.bike.is.BEAUTIFUL 😲
THAT'S REALLY COOL! THAT'S REALLY A DREAM MOTORCYCLE!
What a great custom made bike👍
Love it🤙
Absolutely beautiful!! I love every aspect of it, especially the fact that it's a 2 smoker. I have owned thumpers & smokers, but nothing like when a 2 stroke comes on the pipe. I would ride that thing to work every day
Every so often, otherwise the cops would be trying to get you. 😂
Veo carreras desde kenny Roberts senior contra Spencer, y te digo que esres de lo mas fino que he visto . me recordabas a E. Lawson que con una 500 2t parecia ir en una 125. Tu fisico jugo contra ti , y el cambio a 4t, fue como ponerte en un camion. De hecho las llamo motocamiones. Tu arte y finura quedo patente , al menos para los que amamos las motos con cierto entendimiento de lo que es ser un Biker. Todos mis respetos. No dejaste nada por hacer. Duerme feliz.
Bonito juguete Dani ! Una joya de motor 2t del HRC en un chasis echo a mano por Deus ....Que locura de moto ! Te mereces Todo lo bueno que te ocurre ...
Dani number ONE, the great!!!
Nice supermoto. Good job bro
Amazing build
Nice!
Nice stuff 😍
Everything is awesome here...Just Sayin'
That is to cool. Would have loved to seen it with a Honda RS250R motor. Lighter and more HP. But I still want one👍
Dani is the Rahul Dravid of Moto GP
Wonderful beast
My dream bike too 😱. Good job
thanks for not doing a sound test, i really love watching custom motorcycle videos and not hearing what they sound like...
Tom yeah
Will miss Dani in motogp.
Por supuesto!!!
7:09 you actually get to see the bike dimly lit for 2 seconds.
seriously could barely see it!
MUST SEE BIKE
I lost half of it to the thumbnails of other videos to click (on mobile). Didn't even get a clean shot of dimly lit, hard to see bike. Am sad.
Big things come in small packages them cr500s are nasty!! It's a dam 2stroke!! And this what you built is amazing!!
The Cr500 is not hard to start...you just gotta know the secret!
Exactly but he he did this for the tiny spanish guy . Im not thst tall my self and spanish aswell but i know how to start the 500 after 1 kick ;):)
Dani is really little...
Nice Flat Tracker 😎😎🔥🔥
Életem legszearabb videója amit láttam...
Dani has been racing with 250+ horsepower motorcycles, I don't understand why this beast had to be tamed, because the stock cr 500 only gives + 50 rwhp. It is nice bike nevertheless.
Exactly
You know, a lot of these professional riders don't like riding outrageously powerful bikes in the public? Kind of like how Michael Schumacher (Formula 1 for those that don't know) didn't drive a fast car. I wish I could remember what it was, but it was on the episode of Top Gear that he was in.
everyone got their own preferences
the most important part is how the bike will make him feel
Big power doesn't equal big fun
Yeah I wondered about that, but at the end of the vid he says it has 70hp, so who knows...
Awesome
God that bike looks sick. Can anyone tell me what kind of manufactured bikes are similar to this? Does this style of bike have a name?
It's a street tracker 👍
Sweet bike
#thanksdani
Nice bike
Damn the rules, it's the feeling that matter.
Inspireing
it would be perfect with a tiny front mudguard. it needs it so bad!
Next!
What is the name of the tool for spinning/tightening the lock-wire?
Dani the best!!!
❤️
Anyone have info on the mill and also the lathe he was using here
Ma è bellissima!
Any pictures of it?
Why would you putt bolts through the samurai
Waiting for the 500 beast to be started and it did not :(
WOW
Anyone realized anything at 3:32?
What’s the tune at the end of the video?
Over seeing these branded t shirt every where
Whoa
derbi jättää
All the cliche's with some improvement on sound. Time for a new approach
Aver qué no allá malos entendidos se que Dani Pedrosa conducir super maquinas está moto es una petición o es algo que le izo el colega
What are the wheel and tyre specs
one of my fav rider.
Keren sekali
I love supermoto
I like your t-shirt
Can you actually show the bike ??
Evrythings perfect,, but you should achieve your sensational work by putting it a LIGER cylinder kit from CPI industries, and an adapted exhaust to eat with
It's a nice bike. But, that CR500 is gonna twist that swingarm around.
Avrei preferito una 500 AF
DEUS is the best, i’m from BALI island and there is a place named cangu batu belig where DEUS store and restaurant is.!!!
Who else thought that was jeff gordon in the photo
Kx500 would be better suit for hi speed and top end power... Maybe Dani just must favor Honda
The handle bar is too wide big for Dani 😂😅😊
2 stroke 😃
squirrel @ 3:32 ?
Racers don't really ride fast in the streets that's why they choose to use cafe racers in the streets
👍🙂
This feels really contrived and you can tell when he receives the bike. For me, this is just an infomercial for Deus.
Everyone hates on me at my school for rockin a blue and white red bull hat
5 minutes intro on the builder and then bike was made by someone.. He just copied and adjusted to Dani spec...
does the customer look a bit like james hetfield?
2:27 only in america would someone have a huge flag on their pushbike and handlebars like that bellend just after LOL
Great video, right up until a few seconds from the end when you covered the only shot of the finished product with thumbnails for other videos.
I have fabrication porn blueballs now...

Glad to see him away from the shitey cheating bastards that are repsol Honda. Having fun
You mean the team that made him rich and gave him the best bike.
Ga jelas.?
Welding sounds over angle grinder video... That's just all wrong!! Sweet bike though.
So your not going to show it being ridin boring
#overedited
Rossi is better
The cost of this ugly bike ??? This is not a style for gp rider 3 time champion its a bmx with engine
Any pictures of it?
