[@VeryHairyKrishna]

Nice bit of fabrication there with the new fan shroud. It made a big difference to the overall look of the bike. And that 60's chopper fishtail exhaust sounds awesome. Your vids are firmly entrenched as part of my Sunday routine. Hope you keep doing them for many years to come.

[@winstonweiss7972]

I can't believe this work of art was headed to the heap. These bikes are perfect for this. They look just like early motorcycles. I got the fever. The red tires on a brass colored wheel are really sharp.

Quarantine living aboard my sailboat - no shop/garage for two years now.. I vicariously live my build/fix/create desires through you and your awesome work - keep it up man, I LOVE it !!!

[@FromSaultoPaul]

I am 5 miles outside a small town and live alone. So although not quarantined I am out here by myself without any family and VERY FEW friends. I do not go anywhere unless I have to. I want to build one so I can get out without my Jeep Grand Cherokee sucking my gas MONEY. LOL. I can go fishing with it.

I wasn't crazy about those tires when you first showed them, but on the bike they look pretty cool!

[@Falkkonstag]

Yeah, originally I was a fan of the whitewalls, but this follows the distressed bronze kinda look on the rest. Gas tank's too shiny now, though.

[@mwechtal]

I'm 66 and I've never seen tires that color. Am I weird? I do like them on that bike though.

[@marcijunebug]

An old velvet brand pipe tobacco tin would have been perfect, but like the yellow with the red letters! Really pops your eye to the center of the bike! Has a great sound! 👍

And now my Sunday can begin. Have been looking forward to this 😀

[@Papajur]

So did I! Lovely video's from Musties

[@marlinezell643]

You and me both

[@timwilliams9443]

You ain't kidding

[@borderprepper]

I think this build needs the bike siren I saw in one of those milk crates....

[@RedfishInc]

I saw that and immediately thought he had found his air cleaner but nope , never gave it a look.

[@Tekwyzard]

The snail-horn one? I thought that too, it looked small enough and would be a nice surprise for folks. But then he'd need to mount a reasonably beefy battery to make it work properly, which he might be planning to do anyway to run lighting.

[@billaswangkapre1656]

Sounds almost as good as my Shadow , lol

[@fynbo1007]

It was the right decision to make a new cover, it’s looking amazing. Thank you for sharing your amazing journey. Be careful and safe. God bless you and your family.

[@brettsutherland4194]

I liked the way you explored all the possibilities of finding a pull start housing from what you had at hand, and then gathering your thoughts and deciding to fabricate one yourself. I guess everybody that watches you have been there and done that .Thankyou for your content.

[@SD1fruitbat]

I was looking at all those chainsaw pullstarts thinking "don't they all turn in the wrong direction?"

[@TheRetr0Gamer414]

I love the shot of Lily playing in the stream. We all know who the boss is here 😁

[@JimmyMitchell-Lucky]

Outstanding, you have me motivated to try something like this! The only thing I’m worried about is the chain - tire clearance!!! I’m sure your on top of that!!!!

[@johntomassetti3818]

When you held up that brass cup, I was thinking, “choose wisely “. 🤣

[@SharkoonBln]

Exactly my thoughts... I was going like "Why has this man the holy grail in his stash? And why is he putting it away again?" :)

[@nybergsgarage]

he chose... poorly.

That's so funny.I was watching that,and then this.

[@Ajaxaxxess]

A pepsi?

[@brianally1531]

Happy dog! This is turning out really sweet. If you're looking for things to do (ha) you could split the case and anodize the pieces with a flat black dye. But please mend the power cord on that grinder first.

[@flick22601]

Was anybody else yelling 'leave it alone' when he had the straight rectangular piece for the exhaust in position the first time? Looked great to me following the straight line of the chain. Oh well, guess I can make it that way when I build my own. Love these videos.

[@ArtMan659]

I was thinking the same!

[@Military-Museum-LP]

I love watching you work metal! Like a blacksmith.

[@jamesjacocks6221]

Some school needs to confer upon Mustie an honorary degree in "repurpose industrial design". Heck, he could teach a graduate course. That Industrial streamline in the original bike now has a lot of supporting accents and engine true to the original style. The welding of the pull start/fan cover was absolutely beautiful.

[@terrywindsor1310]

You are like a Marvel movie... you say you're done but there's always a teaser! Love it!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@28YorkshireRose12]

I'm getting to like those red-brick tyres! They really do pick up on the red detail of the frame and chain guard. I'm glad you built a new fan shroud from scratch too - it wouldn't look right, trying to spin the engine over in the wrong direction. The handmade steel shroud is much more in keeping with the bike, and with your handicraft. The exhaust is pretty neat too, looks the part, and makes the engine sound more like a bike engine. I can hardly wait to see you riding this creation, and the big wide smile that I just know is coming.

[@5150mxVW]

another cool build coming along nicely , nice work ....good to see the pup still getting out there :)

[@jagsfanrick]

Love the look of that cover you made.

[@cjc_0167]

I kept saying the exhaust and shroud needed some bead rolling but you didn't hear me - LOL. Thanks for the video Mustie. You are a true artist.

yea great video good sr. i enjoyed seeing your thought process .beautiful shot at the end with the waterfall too. have a good day everyone reading this.

[@CTmoog]

I'd like to build one of these! Love the water fall and rocks!

[@gordbaker896]

Coming along nicely. Make Rear Fender supports match front ones. Chain guard needed Both chains, at least as far back as tire on the powered one. Remove a hand grip, loosen bolt and slide out handlebars and reverse them so you are looking forward and they are upward as designed. You might consider a Gusset plate on that seat pipe unless it is Sched. 40. Cut the bottom off the rectangular can and use it for filter housing. Mount vertical. A small polished disc of Al or SS on the centre of the recoil. Or Vehicle emblem. M-B? Harley 1 !

[@hoosiertrailrider]

I really like the made recoil cover. Also the stream at the end gave me an architectural feel with all the stone formations. Love the sound of that little motor.

[@kevingrime5772]

None of the others would do! The pull start was in the wrong direction. Doesn't matter with two stroke but this is a 4 STROKE. May have to have a muffler box in the exhaust to lower the noise level to get a plate or may get pulled over.

[@mariolavoie9881]

Your a true Mechaniocal Genius! Love your video's! If the end of the world scenario happens, a man with your skill's would be king!

[@horstszibulski19]

Too bad, this isn´t a 2stroke, the exhaust fumes would oil the chain while driving! :-D Nice build so far! :-D

[@EnglishTurbines]

Liked the custom metal Fan Shroud...and the dynamo brought back some fond memories of my youth...The Engineer in me wants to fabricate a steady bearing for the end of that long output sprocket shaft..There are two threaded holes on the engine you could use to bolt it to....🤔🤔🤔👍😷

[@ukulelefatman]

Nice bit of fabricating there, looks great. A copper/steel/brass medallion in the center of the pull start housing would look cool, or maybe cut a circle from an old sign or can. I like the exhaust, but would like to see it looped tighter at the engine....something seems a bit off there...maybe it extends too close to the frame. ........But what do I know? Friggin armchair mechanic here : )

[@jaym1301]

Agreed. The exhaust header should have a sharper bend at the top (if doing that wouldn't ruin the exhaust scavenging) and less of one at the bottom so it parallels the frame. It shouldn't stick out in front like that. It just doesn't look that well the way it is.

[@MrLargePig]

Yeah, but that's a difficult bend, close to the flange.

[@simontay4851]

What about using a 90 degree plumbing fitting but use a steel one. He must have a suitable spare one in the stash somewhere.

[@erebus1964]

WOW ... sounds like ten times the engine displacement. Really like it!

[@jasonhimpson2334]

I was watching the first Back To The Future tonight and George McFly had this exact bike in 1955.

“There’s a shroud there, you just don’t know it yet.” Now Mustie1 is a sculptor, lol

[@steveaguinaga3821]

The world needs more of these..... And builders..... And kits.... I want to build one stretch frame a lil seat lower into back tire. 🤠

[@robertheinkel6225]

Your bicycle generator reminded me of one I had out in CA in the early 70s. I was coasting down the Big Bear Mountain highway at about 40 mph, when I hit a bump, and the generator engaged. Can you believe I blew out both the front and rear bulbs. I guess I needed a voltage regulator at high speeds.

[@David-yo5ws]

I had a reminder too. Going down a steep hill on a paper round in the rain, the wires came out of the front light. I didn't want them to 'jam' in the spokes , (thought I am on a bike with rubber tyres: won't get an electric shock). I grabbed the exposed wires with my hand and AC surged through me and I couldn't let it go! I did the AC 'dance' !! I thought "How do I get out of this?" Pulled the wires up and they came out of that GIGAWATT generator. Had a sore arm for a wee while. LOL I can understand how your lights blew...

[@Yackhammer75]

I know the shroud helps direct air a round the engine for cooling, but as it's a bike with air flow while moving, IF you could get away without it. The pull start by itself looked really good and showed off the engine nicely. But it is yours and that is just an opinion you do you and make it rock as you see fit. BTW I stopped before you finished it to say that so don't know how it turns out yet.

[@Eremon1]

21:24 We had one job! lol One of us dropped the ball there Mustie...sorry I'm still on my first coffee.

[@rock.doctor]

I thought you had it!!!

[@David-yo5ws]

Not very often we get 'Told Off' by Darren, but I felt his wrath! "Sorry about that one Chief, it won't happen again."

[@jlucasound]

I think small, leather saddle bags would look cool. You will need to choose the color scheme. Maybe match the brick red with black? Find black bags and attach a leather "emblem" that is like the old Indian motorcycle logo? Make it match the tank. I just noticed the exhaust wont allow a bag on the left. That exhaust does sound great!

[@eddiekilby]

Mount the exhaust pipe to the frame with and old valve spring from a small engine to give it some play.

[@MsSunwatcher]

I would burn my leg on that exhaust pipe. Can you vent the exhaust toward the front wheel?

[@peroduanippa]

I wasn't too sure about the flat exhaust pipe at first but it looks and sounds great. The whole bike looks great and runs great (I checked out your other vid). The coaster brake by itself could be a problem if you need to stop in a hurry, I would give it a ride though.

[@kpdvw]

Without "The Hoard" there is no Mustie 1... Fabrication is done when the chain guard for the motor drive chain is installed!

[@For891]

The belt drive tranny for those 49 cc are way better. Another must for those in to adjust the valves to .003 on the intake and .004 for the exhaust. You will absolutely notice an improvement. Those engines are meant to rev super high for long periods. I have had mine for over 4 years with over 4,000 miles . Awesome build. Love your vids.

[@m715fm]

Is it possible to hide the light generator on the gas flywheel? So when it is running it will provide lights.

[@philgerard4365]

Omg. Fan what fan. Ambient shop noise awesomeness! Hope you are well.

[@MRrwmac]

Mustie1, “Lookeeng Guud”! Sounds perfect. Nice work on the shroud, but I like it without a shroud, just the pull start, if the airflow would be ok?

[@richierex]

[@lmramos44]

Great Job! The bike is SWEET! To bad we live on opposite ends of the country, I would make you an offer for it you could not refuse. Great Job!!

Hey leave fan casing outside for a bit it will get some surface rust which would look great then you could cover it with a rust converter to keep rust color but keep t from rusting more . I really like the old time look shen you going to manufacture the bike :-)

[@xcalibre222]

One of the nice things about a bike is that it is quiet. Would you consider a baffle in the muffler to quiet her down a bit? Excellent video!

[@audiotechlabs4650]

Like others, I find Sunday mornings a treat with all that going on ton wake up to wrenchin' with Musti1! It's your build do what you wanna do. I keep thinkin', what reaction you will get going down the road or at a gas station or at a meet? People are going to go crazy, unless they know you and have seen others you have built. Either way fun times! Stay healthy, we need these videos to keep us grounded to reality. What we are going through will change the world as we knew it, but wrenchin' will stay the same! Thanxz

Watching what you've done to modify the pull start , made me think of an old lawn mower motor we had that used hand lever crank in place of the pull start for the motor, Really like what you are doing, it has given me some good ideas for a 1915 Black Beauty bike frame I have and plan to do something similar to this, thanks for putting it out there...
