as a machinist with 18 years experience, i would definitely say that top clamp has more than enough strength left.

I love how goofy this couple is yet obviously he is a pretty skilled mechanic. Don't let him fool you, he knows very well what he is doing to get these bikes working :D Also, the wifey is super hot :D Great youtube channel.

damn missed you bro. your in my top 3 of favorite you tubers to watch

I actually like the electrical stuff as much as the mechanical. Also, that hole you drilled will not affect the structural integrity. And your guage cluster does kinda look like my head.

What the hell? I have never seen a channel with so many positive comments... In fact, I cannot find any negative comments. This speaks volumes as to your style of videography. Love your Channel, keep it up.

Thanks for the updates. I love that you have been consistent with uploads despite what I assume is a busy personal life. Please keep it up. You are inspiring people whether you know it or not. God bless.

Never clicked on a video so fast

Yet another brilliant episode.. I think I would have made a plate (1/8” aluminium?) to take the speedo/tach unit, which would go under the handlebar mounts, saving you from drilling holes and weakening the triple clamp. It would have put the unit a little further forward, but allowed you to choose the viewing angle by bending the plate. I made something similar on my Chinese 125 to shift the speedo/tach to a better viewing angle. You two are great together, what a YT format! One of my all time favourite channels, I watch and rewatch all your motorcycle episodes. Thanks. Les in UK

Couple others already suggested it... I highly recommend switching to LED's where ever you can. They are so cheap these days, and since you like to build things you could make your own LED boards if you want. That battery will deal with LED's NO problem.

Just finished a 94 KDX 200 frame off build and it runs like crap.May have to buy a carb as you did.Hope they don't try the ole "switch er roo" on me.Thanks for sharing you knowledge

You guys are a good team! Thank you for putting out these videos. Very informative & entertaining! 👍

Jake you're an inspiration. Love your vids. The editing. The content. The camera work. The funny banter. Love it.

Love that tank on the thing, it's huge.

I am so addicted to this channel you teach and keep it entertaining 🖒

You have an amazing wife that supports you god bless you!

Excellent work with this build! I just finished binge watching the whole playlist! :) Thanks for sharing! It looks like you only have a few small things left :-)

ive only recently found this channel but i cant stay away now ! ive watched all the kdx build, the trail 90 and the Rukus. the chemistry between you both makes for addictive viewing.

Drilling through the triple clamp made my insides hurt.

Hello from England. Just spent the weekend watching through some if your back catalogue and projects. I found them all really informative and entertaining. Your videos just seem to get better and better. I love how you and Jen interact and her witty commentary has me laughing out loud. Can't wait to see where the KDX goes and what you'll end up working on next. Cheers

I love those KDX Videos. Just take your time. I personally can learn a lot by watching you fixing things and creating something new. Just do your thing. Greetings from Germany!

I hope you have more videos coming. I’ve watching all of them now and would love to see more

This was actually very entertaining, especially the wiring part

Please don't fear doing something that might be boring to your dedicated viewers. We love experiencing your genius and Jennies glorious humor and patience. You guys could make brushing teeth and cleaning the fish tank interesting, and the whole time making me believe that I too can accomplish something. I WANT MORE, MORE, MORE I SAY !

That pop sound, when you put the battery holder in is the most pleasing sound after that hard days work And the beauty and simplicity of an analog tachometer is hard for many to understand Looking forward to the corvette build Love and regards from india

I had a KDX 200 back in the day and loved it! Rode the crap out of it and it never quit on me. Here in my state I was able to tag it with out an inspection so no turn signals or speedo and rode it to my riding areas without much problem. Got stopped one time and the officer was pretty cool about it, was more interested in the bike than me and told me to be careful and have a good day!

I love your girlfriends commentary. So funny.

I always love your videos! It doesn't matter how technical or non technical it is. Keep it up!!

I just love how he says I barely understand this myself, and then proceeds to draw a perfect diagram along with the exact parts needed to make the upgrade/conversion

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G as always, you never fail to deliver good laughs alongside a lot of knowledge! You really are a one of a kind couple!

You guys rock. Up-beat and fun and real. I always look forward to another episode. Keep it going guys.

Only found your channel last month. I've binged watched them all and cant get enough. KDX is great little bike, hope you get to enjoy it soon. That ring ding smell and sound is the best

"when it heats up it really gives off some toxic fumes" "so do you" "WAT" -lmao @9:18

I started with the generac at the cabin at 5p.m , read comments, made comments, subs cribed, then a couple of scooters, trail 90 to 125 conversion and now this Kawolski that is kicking your butt. It is now 1:30 a.m. I need you finish this mess so I can get some sleep! Great videos. Thanks.

I personally enjoyed each and every connection you made in this wonderful video.

I got stuck watching your videos after searching for a generator and I have to say they are very entertaining and remind me a lot of fearlessfront when he started on KZfaq a while ago you guys are doing great

I love watching these videos. You and your wife make a great team and I love her teasing you its great.🙂

This video speaks to me, the KDX was my first and only dirt bike and always ran like a gem.

Wooooooo love seeing new vids, don't ever stop you guys!

Always entertaining watching you solve problems as they occur. Jenn is on form as per usual 😂❤️️, I look forward to seeing the finished product and watching some more posts from you 👍

Love the videos. Especially the humor. Keep up the good work.

man, your channel quickly became a favorite of mine. you do an excellent job of making these videos and you better not stop any time soon. you and your wife make a great team, and i look forward to every upload. keep on doing you!

The term for the stator modification is called floating the ground. People seem upset about the hole,. I'm like you in that we'll find out how it works when it's ridden. I'm impressed by the factory snap of the install of the battery box! Well done! The bike is coming together!

Get 'em straightened out Jenn, although I was fairly proud of him UNTIL he made that Large hole in the front critical support piece! If it breaks..it will only mean all control is gone, the front end will most likely fall off, and leave sharp pieces to greet the riders face ;( just wish he drilled it to where it was a tight fit to get the cable through..and oh yeah, did I mention I hope he didn't 'rob' enough parts off YOUR bike to keep you a nice safe dirt bike in that lovely lime green all of your own? Well I did now! And hope he knows your interjected comments at crucial times makes the videos interesting ;) stay safe you all..even if that means I'll take the first ride on the bike..although I'm wearing a full face helmet for this one! Can't wait to see the finish video(s) including your dirt bike going again too, maybe you riding around your property on it, together on a ride.

I LOVE Jennie's comments! Great vids. Wish you made them more often!

It's a great video series. Keep em coming! Fun from being to end. Thank you.

Keep it up bud I’m a mechanic and motorcycle guy so it’s nice to see someone that knows what they are doing!! Lol just a FYI a regular upload schedule and more often is something the KZfaq algorithm looks for as a positive channel to promote. I’d love to see this channel blow up you two are great entertainment!

Hey, I can't wait for you to finish up! I get here every day to see if there is any new video. Cheers from Sweden!

Good job, and it's good to see you back making videos!

Owned a KDX200 20+ years ago, was such a great bike. I eventually pulled it down and sprayed the frame dark grey, had a lot of parts re-plated and polished the swing arm and fork legs - like you, I had issues refitting the wiring harness so had to whip it down to my local bike shop. When I went in to pick it up there were three blokes checking it out, they couldn't work out what it was and thought it was new, I kicked the stand out and told them it was a 90 model KDX200, they freaked out! Think I sold it for $2700 AUD, which was what I paid for it ☺

Been a month now. Where are you?

If you finish the KDX , you know what that means..... Another project lol Keep up the great videos. You 2 are awesome and Thank you for taking time to put these out.

Great videos. Sat here bing watching most of the afternoon.

Great to see you back again, I was beginning to wonder if you'd made it back form you road trip. I have to admit I'd have tried to make a bracket to come of the handle bar clamps and hold the clocks at an angle to clear the triple tree but the hole looks good and I'm sure it will all hold together. Welcome back :-)

Good to have you guys back.

They are the definition of perfect for each other. Love watching their videos. Great chemistry and a good amount of comedy. Plus i always learn something.

Wooohooo good stuff mate great to see the blue forks in the finnished bike...

I love these kinds of vids! Very interesting and I am so happy you are changing out those forks!

Glad you’re back. I always instantly watch your videos.

Dude I just started following you. And from what I’ve seen so far is amazing. Keep it up 💪🏻👍🏻

Man I love your videos. Thanks for sharing you knowledge and make ir fun.

I love all your dirtbike videos. Im hooked, I seriously watch a build from beginning to end. But i must say that drilling that bike in the triple tree was a little crazy. Love to see how it turns out

I liked this video before even watching it! Please continue on this project I love everything about your videos.

i really really really enjoyed the fast pace and condense version. Loved the video

I just watched all the kdx videos. Good work on the kdx's. You two are really a great team which makes the videos fun to watch. Keep it up :)

Very funny, entertaining, and educational!! Love your vids guys! Especially the comment of the "misus" haha. I really i want to see an update on your shasta project though haha. Keep the videos flooding man! Really love your work!

the way you do the elec. I can under stand, were most videos I cant , so thanks for helping him jen.

Love your videos you are a true mechanic

Just found yr channel. Great content and glad to see you're approaching 200K subs! You & Jennie make a good team and these videos are making me think I should buy this cheap, carbless Honda XL100S that someone's selling near me. You're also maybe one of the first KZfaqrs I've seen who I think has potential as an film actor (or at least a performance role beyond your garage). Cheers from Canada!

Can’t wait to see it finish

Great show you have going bud

Keep making your videos!! I look forward to every one of them!!

Awesome dude so close to finishing it up cant wait

look forward to your uploads more than any others! keep up the good videos!

i just picked up a 1986 Kawasaki kdx i think 250 3 wheeler with a clutch kinda cool the wiring harness is fried so watching you do it let me think i could. lets hope so anyways haha keep the vids coming i am learning alot.

Love your vids make my day better

Great vid always enjoy the banter between yea! keep up the great work thanks for sharing most enjoyable and interesting.

This was nostalgic, reminds me of all the electrical work I had to do on my 72 F7 Enduro to get it street legal. Luckily it still had everything but the lights and some of the wiring left on it. The weak little 6v battery though doesn't give enough juice to prevent the flashing effect fully, but the headlight runs on AC in that bike, so it's only the tail light that blinks with the signals.

Always love your videos. Keep it up!

I love this project, it never gets old. Your like the old bike professor 👨‍🏫

I wanna see the SHASTA

I drop everything I'm doing when you post.

Love all of your videos man!

I didnt think you were serious about drilling a hole then BOOM drilling the hole it is LOL cant wait to see it being ridden like it should! Great videos brother

Love your videos I watch them every time I get an notification wish and hope you could post more longer ones I really learn a lot from your videos I’ve been watching them for a while keep up the good aggravating work lol.

You're good. I don't own a bike and am not a mechanic, yet i this stuff holds my attention....good stuff.

We need more videos. You need to get another project that is almost impossible so we can watch and learn. Thanks Jake.

Love the videos ready to see the Kdx done

Great Video ,nice soldering job , with heat shrink, I say darn good job

I always enjoy your videos keep up the good work

Just finished watching the series on the Husqvarna bike. "I want to sell this in the next 6 months." is what he said. Here we are, a year later. He still has it (and it's still a pretty bike)

Dude you just drilled through a stress part. It doesn't matter if you actually weakened it, the point is you will never really have complete faith that your machine will hold up to hard driving conditions ever again! And every rider knows having confidence in your machine is half the battle!! that being said awesome videos guy, keep it up.

Not boring thanks very much for the education and please keep it up!!!!

Yesss about time, can never get tired of anything you do

I just found your channel and I love it.i know nothing about moters . But you and the "camera girl" have me hooked.much success.

Wish this much effort was put into getting the promised Shasta videos out. LOL. Nice job.

Times up! Just finish it! BTW- Great job on the rectifier and batter box fabrication! I want to move on to the Corvette project!

Extremely well done! Good informative video

keep up these vids like this love them man hope you finish your bike soon

Lol. “It’s kinda crooked ain’t” and edit the scene. You guys are awesome, love the videos.

good to see you again buddy like watching the vids
