Everything you've done to the bike is badass with exception of removing the rear brake. Never never never sacrifice safety for style.

Wow i cant believe ive been watching your videos since 2014 time flies

no rear brake sounds terrifying, hope you never have to panic stop.

I literally subscribed for this build. I watched every video on it. Thanks for reminding me I need to get off my ass and do something with my bike.

Ik I’m only 16 but finally someone who understands me, bikes and car lifestyle. Love your work on the bike hope to see more videos on things you’ve been up too.

Red Kote is the best, I have used it for 30 years. I worked in a radiator shop for many years and we used it on lots of old autos that new fuel tanks weren't available. I have used it on steel, aluminum and fiberglass motorcycle tanks even my dirt track race bike. It was not affected by 108 octane leaded race fuel and Klotz Benol. Great video.

Combination lock - brilliant idea! Awesome bike 🔥🔥

Dam good job , looks great, sound amazing. Love those open headers

Those carbs looks amazing!!

That sounds amazing! I'd love to do something similar with an old rebel 450 I have. Not too hardcore of a café but some of the charm they have.

Bought my CB 550 after watching your build. Cognito Moto has so muchvgreat stuff for the 550's. I would suggest the rear hoop with built in break light. They also make a rear disk break conversion for 550's now, bought one for mine. Good luck man, keep up the good work.

That sounds amazing!!!

Awesome bike! The character it has is what makes it interesting from the usual. Have always loved cafe racers and would enjoy building one. Keep it coming man👍

Soooo can’t wait for the front end rebuild cus am gonna do that to mine but never done it before. 🙌🏽

Yay! Pumped you'll be continuing the build. BTW I'm pretty sure you live < 5 miles from me and I've got a '75 CB550 I'm working on too! 💪

The Dodge Ram’s latest video has so many views already! Your content is above most channels man, hopefully I can make it to mechanical engineering school after the military!

I love this build man!!

I have my honda cx500 and im going to make cafe racer, this is almost the look what im going for, will see what its going to be like after this winter :) nice bike you have!

Bike is sweet. Love seeing the imagination bro, keep going

I’ll buy the clips on set up from you. Great job.

I just love your bike!😀👏

I really like the modern fork swap on these old hondas. I have a R6 front on my 77 CB750.

I'm currently starting a CB 550F build. I've had the bike about 6 years but this video gave me some good mod/cafe Racer ideas

DUDE! we have the same taste. I had a 280z and still have a cb550four. great projects. you earned my subscribe.

crazy sound bro! thumbs up

Buen vídeo 👍 y muy buena maquina 👍

it sounds like a beast

very nice rig

love my CB

ahahah "impulse buy nights" are the best and worst nights ever

You’re a genius kid. 😮👍🏼

Damn where has this channel been, KZfaq recommendations needs to step up its game!

love your videos the bike is awesome1 doing a buildw with an 82 suzuki gs 650. i was seeing if you , or knew of any good videos to help me with some bare bones wiring.

Hey, I love the bike. Think it looks great. I started watching your videos from the rusting the tank videos. Have you had any problems with the clear coat discolouring or chipping off?

2019 doesn't feel right if Czero hasn't uploaded a video

Top tip, put something between the tire and the intake, if your caught in the rain, water thats flung up from the tire will get sucked into the intake, (not good)😂 learned the hard way.... beautiful bike though!

hey i did the yellow foam strip light on my bike. the trick is cut the slot spray the foam first then push the lights into the slot if you put the strip in and spray into holes drilled behind it will just go around. its pretty easy not as bad as you think.

I would steal that bro looks dope lmao

Where are you CZero? We miss the videos.

On the fence about tail light and GXR front end. Might take way from the vintage cafe look a Little to much. If anything I would go with anodizing the GSX front end black. Maybe find a metal front fender dump the plastic. Tail light just not sure I would shop around on that one. Awesome job.

gsxr forks and r6 forks should be direct bolt on for a 500/550 frame besides the conversion bearings. You can use a harley front dyna glide hub with the correct wheel bearings to fit the forks and then run a spoked wheel. I usually just run a 16" spoked hog wheel in the rear, maybe run some nice excel rims on them. Im fishing a 750 chopper project and 550 cafe right now, text me if you come out to Waterford. by the way I really enjoy that toggle combo for the ignition.

Hay thật sự, cảm ơn Đức Phúc mang cho mình dòng cảm xúc này!

czero please upload more content. i miss your videos😭

I’m looking at doing the headlight tape mod all, does the halogen melt the electrical tape?

You need to get a back wheel fender guard so rocks and dirt and especially water won’t get into those OPEN carbs!

Not worried the wheel is going to throw dirt in your carbs? Nice to see the bike back

It’s been a while since iv seen this cb

Great video, and great bike!! Thanks for sharing!! Are you still running the 110 main jet....?

Hey man, I show how to machine the stock 19" front wheel to an inverted front end on my instagram. Also, I machine an led stripe brake light shroud to recess the led into the hoop.

where you put accu in yo Cb bro? good job bro

I love how you finished gas tank …. May I ask . Where you get yours headlight seat and the grips please ….. thank you so much …..

Hey man! Building one because of your video's :) What jet sizes do you run in the end? And what are your needle settings?

are those velocity stacks? :D

What year is the 550? I have a 1978, stock. Nice job.

Love it and can't wait to see the front-end install. Please configure a rear brake solution though!

Big fan Czero, but no rear brakes definitely sounds like a bad idea

how did you lower the stock front forks?

Hi man , how many inches your tires ?

Where did you get the ignition switches.

I built a cb550 cafe in the early 90's but ran a Kerker pipe and it wasnt much if any quieter than your open header. Besides having to make my rear set the main difference between my build and this was I used a Ducati style fairing I got from a swap meet in Pamona. I did the build after hitting a patch of sandy gravel and dumping it one night leaning into a corner. Ride it for 5 more years before I sold it when I started a family.

Makes me want to do a cb550 motor swap in my cb350f

What setup did you use for the carbs to get those velocity stacks working?

Is there a video for the combination starter? I love that idea

Whats up Ish! Bikes looking super mean! Just wanted to say two things- firstly, Ive seen all your builds from the beginning of when you posted them years ago, but I dont remember you saying that your tank is ACTUALLY NOT FROM A CB550. As Im sure you know, Its from the K model of the CB750- basically any year from 69-76! If guys are going for that fuller and larger tank look- the lower profile cb550 tanks that are from all the K versions of the cb500/550s are not going to be the same. Theyre similar but more slimline. But The F tank from CB550F 75/76 and all CB550 tanks from 77-78 are bigger, larger, more "stout" looking and race inspired. Secondly, the GSXR front is basically done to death, but for good reason! Its a huge upgrade to the entire ride of the bike. My favor to you is keep the strategy of this build the same- when approaching the front end. So far youve kept everything budget conscious from the beginning- basically giving alot of us garage guys- a ton of amazing information, advice and most importantly inspo to do it at home on a dime. That being said the easy way to get that front spoked wheel is to do the full Cognito treatment, but its really expensive, so my ask is that you look at the GSXR front end with the harley dyna front wheel solution. This comes with some inherent issues- like drilling out the correct pattern on the gsxr or huyabusa rotors and some spacing issues But for 95% of guys the solution is much more cost effective and makes it doable. Thanks again and keep up the amazing work !

where you put the battery?

Is that a Open carb? man i can imagine how much dust coming inside. But its really nice bike

how about using a nfc tag as authentication + start switch?

Is it for sale?

Possible to connect rear brake to front lever? So sketchy lol.

Great to see you're back on your Cafe!!! Building my own Cafe and watching your videos for inspiration and Reference!! Truly humble guy!! GL friend!!!

Just subbed, but I ain't goin to Insta... So post some fn updates already! Haha

where are the new videos? :(

How so I get rid of the battery box and all that?

Sick. Ass. Bike. Nuff sed.

I want my bike to sound like that I have an 82 cm450e I've completely changed the way it looks I wish I could show you a picture of a before and after but my old phone broke so I lost the pictures of it.

Need more videos buddy

Like where this project is going to and am I already subbed for 4 years????

Finally a video on the cafe racer! :) For the rear tail light just buy a led strip and zip tie it on to the hoop instead of cutting and trying to mount it inside it. LINK: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GJGCR9U/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

these old bikes are pretty dangerous. I have a 77 cb550 and i came from a 2007 r6. First thing I noticed was the suspension sucked and the brakes were terrible. BUT I still love riding it.

CLASSIC OLD

My buddy put a tail light strip on his bike, and it died in 4 months. I don't know if it's the best option.

How the hell did you pass safety inspection to get it registered without rear brakes?

Cool video! Ever take that motorcycle in that outfit to say a 7 eleven to buy something?

😱😱😱😱😱💯👌

Only just came across your videos. I love them already! The combination lock is so funny and clever too. If you have time please check out my latest riding video from Japan.

Thoughts on tommyfyeah evo not sure if you watch his channel

u look so tired but love you

Still

this customize supposedly calls 'bratstyle' not cafe racer

Yo

Make a video with GoldGuy!!

CZeroMedia? Shit more A6M2ZeroMedia

Shit i see why i don't get any notifications from ya

Are you living

no rear brake??? really???

No rear brake? That's not good.

I just did a GSX-R 1000 front end swap on my 83 CB550sc. If you need any help. I've been down that road. We really should meet up next year (I'm in Waterford). Cafe meet up or something. If you're getting new wheels you should think about getting ahold of that rear disc conversion setup that you can get from cognito moto. Love the build and the channel. Keep it up my dude.

I think somebody broke into my google account, because I didn’t Subscribe to this channel

Stay different, everyone runs those cheap strip tail light's. You are creative think of something lol.

why do people want such a thin and uncomfortable looking seat? i dont believe cafe racers are suppose to be inherently uncomfortable to ride. why not just take the seat off entirely then?
