Triumph Thruxton R 'deBolex Special'

[@thejasonrk]

out of every 100 or so bike builders that pop up every year there are usually only a few that stand out, this is one of them. Great work. The red scrambler with aluminum cowl is what really impressed me.

[@TheGreatestBeyonder]

STUNNING BIKE. STUNNING WORKMANSHIP. DeBolex must be extremely proud of this creation, It looks and sounds amazing. Well done, Best Bike Shed Motorcycle Club video to date. Thanks all.

[@johnkinnane547]

G’day and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 I couldn’t believe it what I was seeing, in 1984 I built a cafe racer that was very similar to this great looking bike Evan down to the the levers, it bought back great memories. The engine on mine had a MTC kit in it which had ample speed. This bike is to me more like the older bikes that I grow up to thanks for showing it kind regards John

[@cecilwilson5442]

If I am ever lucky enough to be a lottery winner then there's no way I'd be ringing anyone else but that fella for a cafe racer and quality British engineering

[@alan1340]

deBolex, More like de Bollox - first class. Beautiful bike, what a dream ride. Love the wiring, changes it from a complete fustercluck to a thing of beauty.

[@jochenwagner5170]

You mean the Bollock Brotherz? Greets 🖤🔥

[@alan1340]

@@jochenwagner5170 Yep that's sure what i meant. They got the Bollocks and then some. Fucking A :)

[@KP-05]

I love all your mods. Every bike I see is exactly how I want my bikes to be modded. I will definitely travel down and do business with you guys in the future

[@MrTurnip1000]

Only modern Thruxton I've seen with an exposed air filter, makes the bike look SO much better imo. Lovely build.

[@peteramann2561]

Gorgeous bike, all mods are very subtle and amazingly executed, very inspirational and makes me want to take my bike build to a much higher level, thanks and I love your channel

[@boldstar69]

Looks like a triumph, ducati and an mv all combined into one, I like it!.

[@prodrift101]

Triumph makes some of the most beautiful bikes in my opinion

[@Lar308]

Yeah - if only they could be left alone!

[@nickcoulter973]

I am very impressed by the work this company does. The quality of what they are producing is exemplary. Every bit has been thought out to the point that it makes me think they have an incredibly costly batch of failed test parts in the scrap pile. Lol

[@NOTAFULLUN]

It’s fantastic for me to see young engineers producing outstanding work at home in the Uk. We need to harness this as a nation and show the world we can create desirable vehicles. Thanks for bringing it too us and showing us. Ride safely.

[@100kmp]

Looks good. The attention to detail. The components. The finishes but at the same time subtle. My hat off to you guys.

[@ScrapYardDog64]

Love that tank.

[@paulruddock4621]

A truly beautiful job. Superb stance and proportions with some gorgeous touches. Hats off to you lads.

[@flatcapcaferacer]

Nicely done.

[@FlorinNitulescu_1]

Proper modern cafe racer! It looks insane! 👏🏻

[@jochenwagner5170]

[@rrobotman]

Pure excitement and a stunning build.

[@dondarko7885]

[@Justfinnishguy]

If the motorcycle can be beautiful, this is it!

[@arora_for_life]

@5:35 why the RPM console is showing 1500 RPM on that bike?

[@arora_for_life]

I guess that engine was running.

[@zinni_de]

Wow, what a rebuild! 👍🏼

[@leechamberlain1273]

Really nice finish on this bike

[@CosmicTourist]

[@2ONQ2]

The Bollix Engineering? Love it!

[@michaelstrauss6587]

Absolutely sublime.

[@swiss889]

Wow my dream bike

[@findingretreat]

deBolex has come a long way!!!!osum

[@justdad53]

A real beauty. What was the horsepower on the dyno after tuning? Not sure why abs and traction control was not incorporated? Does the new ECU allow for higher top speeds?

[@Manjaco]

What an amazing bike!!!

[@thatguycalledart6270]

This is beautiful

[@cafesportster642]

tail cowl better than triumph stock one , nice work

[@kildareman051]

Beautiful. Tank has a Vincent vibe to it.

[@olrenison]

Stunning.

[@freddoon4454]

BIKES IS " TITS " ALSO LOOK INTO "BRISK " SPARK PLUGS ! "EVO" OR "DUAL SPARK " , THEN ADD " NOLOGY" COILS AND SPARK PLUG WIRES ! AND YOU WILL LOVE THE RIDE EVEN MORE ! ! !

[@pwoolveridge1]

just stunning!

[@buddhastaxi666]

Finally a replacement for that gutless 900 motor. The refinement in this bike is first class.

[@FASTBIKES4LIFE]

Stunning!! ❤️🤘🏼

[@CorvusHyperion]

Detail is amazing

[@davidjackson9565]

stunning, utterly stunning piece of work, god I wish i had the cash for somehing like this, by god. that. is nice! Cool little bit of VT too @bikeshed

[@georgeknox]

Not like I want to give you fine gents more work to do, "BUT" for those of us that take down a parts list with every video you post and stock these builds on the interweb it would be great to include some link of places to buy the bits. Keep up the great videos high five from the US. I'm a backyard bike builder that loves to find parts from around the world. Cheers

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

Hey George, we do sometimes provide some info and links where parts are hard to find or come from a guy who made something special, but when we just post links to parts you can find on Google, they often go out of date and end up pointing to Error 404s. Sometimes it's better just to namecheck and allow the internet to do the work. Check the written stories at the main site for more details.

[@normasnockers323]

top class engineering

[@scottastell9415]

Nice one!

[@deniscullis8518]

Fantastic bike hoping to get to the bike shop soon xden

[@Nickr9287]

What an amazing bike!!! How would one preform chain maintenance on a bike like this?

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

Same as a normal Thruxton, pop it on a paddock stand and get stuck in.

[@danilocapellan1316]

I love it 👍🏼

[@treytucker5619]

Beautiful

[@66smashy]

Love it !

[@tkn9204]

Does anyone know who makes the pull latches on the seat?

[@markcandlin6421]

Awesome bike.

[@R.B_B]

This seat is not bolted? Is fixed with magnets?

[@Steve-vm1fi]

Life Goal: Save as much money as I can, give deBolex my R NineT and a blank check

[@GixxerZilla]

Keep dreaming Steve, I will get it long time before you mate

[@aarongreggor8488]

Hey, Which is that paddock stand you are using???

[@viperq]

Lovely

[@tj76cedric]

Beautiful bike. Wish the interviewer would stop cutting the poor builder off mid sentence though! Wanted to hear more on the clutch at 4:35 but poor guy couldn’t get a word in 😂

[@jimallen199]

Love this bike. The electrical stuff pecked my interest I'm building a custom street tracker for a 2011 street triple & would love to change the instruments but can't figure out how to separate the dash from the ecu so the engine will run, any clues anyone.

[@grenphelps7455]

Tank reminds me of a Honda cb tank...I can't unsee this 😂😂🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@orval21]

I do have its competitor, A RNine T, but damn this bike is awesome !

[@GazderVarun]

BRAVO!

[@anthonymcdaniel3047]

Does anyone know what that shirt jacket ROSS is wearing. Its not Roland sands is it, OR IS BIKE SHED

[@alkatrajazzldleed4793]

Magnifique

[@MrStingraybernard]

How much to build?

[@castlefranck3979]

OH my god absolutely gorgeous, i 'm owner of thruxton r do you import the parts in France ? best regards

[@thepassionofthegoose5472]

Well, looks like I'll be putting off work for around 22-minutes.

[@sebastianwong1170]

I have a pair of shoes that would look outstanding with this bike.

[@gregorytimmons4777]

Really surprised that the standard clutch is cable actuated and the hydraulic setup is an upgrade.

[@davet7365]

How can i get a pan for my 19 speed twin?

[@rafaelaponte5442]

How much was it?

[@gauravkumar3146]

masterpiece

[@CASADELSOULVIDMIXTV]

Big Red sure does like to interrupt this kid when he tries to answer his questions.

[@dirtyscalper5584]

Anyone know how much a custom Thruxton from a shop like this would cost?

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

They haven't revealed what the customer paid but just think how many hours went into it, double it, then triple it again . Then multiply that number by an hourly rate half that of what you'd expect, and you might be somewhere close. Sorry, not much more info than that available.

[@expulseofficial]

Price?

[@jochenwagner5170]

Remembers me a little bit for AJS Boy Racer. Optical….. first look.

[@jochenwagner5170]

TT winner for twitters. Half historical- half new🤩🐶🔥🚀

Sheriff’s steering head 🤠

[@superbikebox]

Top !

[@hunterstien4475]

Smart Harley 1200’s please they had the XR1200 and the Xl1200cx Roadster, very cafe

[@goldenmath4091]

I love calums work, but as a lifelong craftsman myself I find it a shame that this level is not more common, I get asked to quote such work, but not many understand the work it takes to finish to a high level, the backdrop is race/aircraft/military None of that is cheap, if anyone feels it's all ridiculous overpriced nonsense do an apprenticeship and spend many years learning your trade I don't always agree on his designs, but the work but is impeccable, well done

[@stefanoturolla9359]

Bella

[@steelandglass]

Beautiful Bike … but why would you leave the swing arm silver … ? Wrong !
