BMW K75 Cafe racer - Full Timelapse Build

[@odokurogarage]

So much respect for building this bike alone and without tools that others wouldn’t even dream of attempting without. All those hours spent by yourself in that garage hit right in the feels. Mans got some determination

[@BladeRicsi]

I am amazed! No complicated machinery, in a dark garage, only with creativity, and you build an awesome motorbike. WOW

[@TahitianRider]

Haha thanks, you got to do with what you have :)

[@damienvincentelli8663]

@@TahitianRider Brad! monte ton business et je viens travailler avec toi! big up de Noumea 987 --- 988

[@petroclassics5547]

You're not going to win any awards with this bike, but you have won our hearts. An inspirational video on creativity. What any common person can achieve in their own basement with limited resources if they apply themselves. Thank you for sharing.

[@kadabra2354]

Watched this video a few times over the couple years, finally jumped the gun and bought a 1990 BMW K75, works great and plan to take influence from this video and make my own personal changes. Thank you for sharing, inspiring and even writing out a blog on all the work you've done. So much appreciation for it!

[@POSTAWPIWO]

I'm going to do this same:)

[@skakpedersen]

Who need a one million dollar workshop anyway? Hammer, hacksaw, spray paint, a creative mind, a bunch of personal hours - and wham-bang you got a unique café racer. RESPECT bro!

[@GreatCornholio69]

Using playing cards to protect the tyres from paint, that blew my mind. Cool build nice job!

[@Frank-rh7vh]

Transforming from Dr. Jekkyl to Mr. Hyde - Thinking about his conditions, this is a Masterpiece. Very well done, young Siir !!!

[@kevingrandke6075]

I agree with Seislman this is the best inexpensive build I have seen in a long time. and it changes so much on the bike but leaving little modified! I love it.

[@robertbenz]

You are awesome! and the whole build in a dark parking garage! Kudos to you.

[@jorgergonzalezvisualartist8925]

Back in the late 80s I used to ride with a friend that had one of these. We went across the usa together, but I never did like this model because I found it too long in the geometry of it! With this built it looks a lot better. Another part that I didn’t care for was the sewing machine sound the bike made.

[@1100mrjohnson]

About halfway through I was thinking "This bike is going to look like a Frankenbike" but at the end I was pleasantly surprised...especially that it turned out like that being built in a parking garage! Great job and a good looking bike.

[@Turco949]

Best part is, he is a young amateur custom bike maker with no professional tools or shop yet he creates such awe-inspiring bikes from, seemingly, pieces of junk bikes. Kudos to you, Tom! Keep up it up!

[@drexelking8792]

Great transformation. And that's how you edit no need to drag it out. Thanks for sharing.

[@MrToonfish]

Il faut l'idée et le courage pour déshabiller une K75 et en faire un beau café racer... Bravo ! Chouette boulot et pas évident dans un garage commun.

[@spraylondon]

Man I've never been a fan of BMWs mainly because of the engine block shape, but you have done a fine job, she is a beauty!

[@donparker1823]

These video's make me grateful to have my own garage and a reciprocating saw.

[@t.sb_0570]

This video is so underrated. Absolutely LOVE the final result! nothing like the orignal anymore! Much respect to you man. You do one heck of a job.

[@josiahowen5408]

I MISS THIS! I remember tearing my first bike apart. Removing the extra pieces, installing new exhaust, brakes, stacks, and then blowing the little 250 trying to hit 110mph. HAHAAA!

[@vinnyct17]

Dude I give you props for a few things, doing all the work yourself, picking a bike thats not easy to see its potential and making an awesome cafe racer. nice work man!

[@heinzbaron9129]

I really enjoy the vibe of building the bike in what appears to be an underground parking garage. Sort of a lost space being put to use as a garage.

[@maritocolonna9995]

Great trick with the cards. Excellent rim paint job!

[@mynickisalreadytaken]

This trick with the game cards for painting the Rims! So simple. I feel stupid. Great, now i can paint my rims as well, without getting rid of the tyres. I missed it, when i was changing the tyres a few weeks ago. Thanks!

[@CowboyX1000]

Nice job! You've uncovered a great looking bike under all of that plastic! And working in a parking garage gets bonus points.

[@TahitianRider]

Thanks a lot for all the nice comments everyone!! I really appreciate them and it motivates me to keep doing more builds!! :) I do not have the time to answer all of them but I do read them so thanks guys!! I'm currently working on 2 other bike and will post more videos when done!

[@MrZeldolive]

tes réalisations sont impressionnantes. en plus tu fais ça dans ton garage.... énorme !

[@kwakas4ever]

Who says you need a full workshop to build bikes? Well played, young man.

[@PAJG28]

Well done man, this thing looks sharp!!! And all done in a shared garage!! Extremely impressive upgrade.

[@nicholasbaker2904]

What a fantastic budget looking build. Great work and I'll be taking some of this for my own future endeavors.

[@GGRidesMotovlog]

it gives me the idea of cafe racers dont need so much work to build. thanks!

[@hotforteacher7540]

This is the Best cheap strip and built I've ever seen. Awesome bike. LOL way to go!

[@TahitianRider]

Haha thanks bro!! :)

[@MrGiovannino89]

I agree with Seisman, best cheap built ever. You did a great job with few parts. Congrats, very nice ride

[@rodmaiquez726]

a fucking good 10min of my life! well done bro

[@nuudelz3711]

Best part about this bike is it’s on a platform this will run for literal ever

[@satemopatton8144]

A beautiful machine without any electronic 😍...... Perfect.......

[@sovereignentity4924]

Where there's A WILL... There is A WAY..! AWESOME BUILD..🙏

[@Tempvo]

Really

[@jakysz145]

Man, this is cool, you did it, in some parking lot (I assume) without even having a bench or angle grinder, it just shows that if you are motivated enough you can do everything everywhere !

[@evgenipratashchyk2699]

great job! At first, I was very hesitant when you pulled out that hacksaw. The end product looks great!!

[@keyseal2584]

Customize well, not over doing it. Just nicely done. Love it

[@terminalpsychosis8022]

Killer transformation. Looks like a lot of fun. Just needs a small, round shield up front. Trust me, makes riding SO much nicer. Looks cooler too.

[@DONphantasmo]

For a guy with basic tools, WOW. Great job man!!!

[@Dub105]

that's a lot of love this bike deserved.

[@timmytom]

I now know what to do with my old K75 Many thanks for sharing your build and inspiration.

[@syjoshua6930]

This man can build or custom anything 💛

[@SY1WEK]

That was very brilliant with what you did with the deck of cards and the wheels. Well done!

[@Mechanimations]

Great work with all the camera angles and covering every step of the process. It adds so much to the video that you're just having at it in a parking garage. No excuses!

[@wongalus6510]

I am proud of you. Even though you use simple equipment, the results are cool

[@T0BBi94]

Maserati in the background! Nice!

[@jaguar123987x]

Looks 10000000000000% better than before! Nice!

[@KarasouTengu]

Hell of a nice job. I miss my old Cafe Racer.

[@rightuppercut1426]

What a beautiful bike you created. Great job! Enjoy it

[@masterblaster6434]

Well done. Great to see old bikes coming back to life in a new form. I have 2 K100's ready to do this to.

[@TahitianRider]

Thanks :) nice! I'm sure you're gonna have a lot of fun with those K100's ;)

[@Livestrongandbeyond]

Awesome build and I really liked how dedicatedly you worked on it. End result was all worth it.

[@TahitianRider]

Thanks! glad you like it :)

[@welshbiker8491]

good work well done was it easy to replace the speedo with an aftermarket one

[@crnaprod]

Super beau travail mec, réalisé avec beaucoup de goût !

[@ludovicverbeeck]

Merci pour ce beau projet! tu m'a donner la motivation de commencer un street tracker sur base de K100!

[@LordFire232]

I love how you did the whole build using very basic tools. Not even power tools! You got my respect.

[@SkvalaGaming]

Nice transformation

[@andrewd7586]

Terrific job working with next to nothing mate! 👏🏻 Cheers from Australia 👍🏻😎

[@vishansingh7641]

Every single part taken off is moved away immediately wow

[@NGSVALENCIA]

Wow congrats man, what a build for the acces you had to tools and equipment

[@LeBergerFrancais]

Travail très propre pour un amateur avec le coeur de la passion !

[@Podegra]

Dude, you are seriously awesome as hell!

[@Rog175]

lnspirational, motivational, honest. Thank-you for taking the extra time to share your experiences with us.

[@edmaluf]

Excellent. Thanks for sharing this. Can you tell us where did you buy the exhaust and the seat? Thanks.

[@myktrixxx49]

WoW nice job...best low budget production!

[@kunalchatterjee5310]

how amazing it is when you just follow your passion!

[@sidefx996]

This is so satisfying to watch. Wish I worked that fast haha. Looks fantastic! Nice job!

[@gippolito]

Very nice build! I enjoyed following along. You had a very good vision of a cafe racer hiding under all of those extra pieces.

[@nbdcbn]

You made it look easy and inspired me to build something beautiful too

[@TwoWheelsOneLove]

Thanks for sharing this, I enjoyed every minute watching!

[@grapzz46]

very very good job ....your life is for bikes and you are going with the flow

[@59jaguar]

Mad skills man! That’s one of the few bmw cafe conversion style bikes that looks good .

[@Sendapower]

Nice clean and solid bike! Have fun with it!

[@CafeRacerSSpirit]

Very nice work. We fitted the same exhaust on our latest BMW K75 build.

[@ISeeYouOliver]

That came out awesome!

[@llboodlam]

kudos for doing this in an underground parking garage..i wish you the very best in your future and in creating more projects like this in your own shop or garage (y)

[@TahitianRider]

Thanks a lot:) I considering starting a new project bike, or maybe even start doing some as a job :)

[@ogpu1]

Genius work! Keep up the good work! Many thanks

[@berniebgf]

Great video, well done on the build.

[@g-low6365]

nice work. proof that theres no need for expensive tooling to build something nice. Btw. u should have put end caps to the sub frame where you cut it. in order to prevent rust there.

[@eduardojungbluth4344]

Very very good. Beautiful bike. Congrats.

[@destiny3418]

excellent modification. very impressed with your skills👍👍👍

[@jeronimosj16]

That's an amazing job, my friend! Was really nice to watch it

[@plopping-wetlyacademyofmot9639]

10 out of 10 background music 👌

[@TheGweems]

I don't know much about mechanics but at 2:18 are you not fitting a part which has been painted internally to the engine?! does this not risk contaminating the engine oil?

[@adirondackcarfoundry368]

So you built a really cool bike. Inside a car park. Under a single fluorescent light. Damn.

[@Patiboke]

Nice! You deserve a proper mancave with good lighting.

[@АлександрЛаварден-и7з]

Горящий чек на БМВ это наше все!😂😂😂😂 а так парень красава, такой мот собрал, прям респектую!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@dopedowh]

all that just in a basement parking lot? respect!

[@bdog543]

You’ve inspired me man,now I’m gonna start doing this

[@robertgrant008]

One word (Brilliant.)

[@kasper.breistein]

Awesome project and a dope bike!

[@elljusma]

It looks so much better. Amazing work man!

[@palebluedot285]

[@8ballphilc]

Much respect! Great job with what you had to work with! Congrats!

[@scandenfreud]

beau boulot, comme quoi il n'y a pas besoin d'un garage luxueux et suréquipé pour faire quelque chose de sympa!

[@ELKIILLAKO]

Me quito el sombrero mis respetos ante tal obra de arte

[@jpithois]

Ia ora na! super video et super resultat ! ta becane etait en etat de rouler avant les modifs?

[@paindobeur]

Really nice job ! Quelle bombe de peinture utilises tu pr le plastique ????

[@Sylvebarbe]

Alors je n'aime pas trop celle-ci pour quelques raison perso. Mais bordel respect vu les conditions de travail merdique ! Voilà de la passion, de la vrai ! Bravo
