[@pineconedrone7921]

This guy makes more money from youtube and endorsements than a pro motocross mechanic. Those guys get raked over the coals when it comes to pay.

[@markusandrejeff5708]

Pinecone Drone Why not do both at the same time? Record the rebuild process on a pro-race purposed dirtbikes and still get the money from monetization and sponsors

[@allenklingsporn6993]

@@markusandrejeff5708 Because sponsors generally make you sign agreements that prohibit you from double-dipping on advertising or even from associating them with ads (a la KZbin) that they haven't agreed to specifically. Also, not much point to working on a factory team if you're just going to share team information with your competitors on youtube... Also, none of this stuff is pro-level information. This is all stuff that dirt bike owners should know. It's literally all in the owners manuals.

[@jtstrango7621]

All I wanna say is your determination in the video from the 15th is insane. Good job putting on a fight against leukemia and great job on the build! Love the colors of everything!

[@Foxtrot1967]

Custom builds add personalization, character and gratification. The best part about it is KZbin paid for it. Well done Cam!

[@robertrishel3685]

Genuinely have a lump in my throat and tear in my eye seeing you finish this piece of art. And art it truly is.

[@noahkruetzkamp7122]

Ive watched this build from the beginning. I watched this bike go from a peice of crap to any man or women's dream bike. You've done good battling cancer and keeping up with the build. Glad to see your having fun on it.

[@NandCChannel]

Sweet. Im excited for the next build. Any bike. Always a great finished

[@rubenguibert5100]

Love seeing mint bikes like these get ridden, awesome build. Currently rebuilding a 01 but found a crack in the case were the transmission bearing goes. Case is discontinued so hasn't been to easy but aint giving up.

[@geneswiech4381]

Cam, This CR looks amazing.... I learned a ton watching the videos !! I think the biggest part is your eye for details to take this build to the next level. AWESOME Your #1 fan from Pittsburgh Gene

This is the most beautiful 2-stroke I have ever seen! U did an amazing job with this Honda! I wanna do something like this with my yamaha

[@UlisesGlez26]

The video, we have been waiting for a long time as well, she's mint bro

[@brettcoop9149]

Bike turned out awesome. You may want to consider applying some Copper Antiseize to those TI bolts. They seem to love seizing to threads. I'm in the process of adding a ton of Blue TI ones from Pro-Bolt on to my 03 CR250/500 conversion. The way I prep the threads is I use the old steel bolt, put Copper Antiseize on it, thread it in and out and then install the new TI bolt. Using some Loctite 243 doesn't seem to be a problem - I have to due to the 500 being a rattle box! :)

[@youngbuck4440]

The best cr250 I've ever seen in my whole life keep up the great work. And I'm so glad you battled Cancer a little while back. By the way love your videos they are so helpful can't wait to see more!!

[@motosquid5979]

I love how well you show the build and walk us through it I’m always learning something new while also being entertained!

[@jimmadonna1436]

Love the bike. The color of the restyle kit looks darker than stock. You did a good job of cutting off the unwanted plastic. It was great to see you riding again.

[@mosconi0359]

Been a really long time since anyone has done anything that I would consider "inspiring" but you and your videos fit the bill perfectly! I'm in awe of your abilities. I've been riding motorcycles for over 50 years and never even considered taking as much care of them as you've shown in these videos. Frankly, I feel like I missed the boat. You are definitely going to inspire a bunch of youngsters with this channel of your's. And given what I've seen of Millennials these days, they are gonna need some inspiring. Rock on!

[@yellowveedub]

This brings a tear to my eye man. So happy for you! Rock on Cameron!

[@trustnuffin9121]

This bike is better than new and it's great to see you riding it after everything buddy. Keep the videos rolling out bro !

Braaaaaap! One of my favorite sounds. The other is a blow-off valve.

[@bradgriffith6234]

The bike turned out really nice. Better than some of factory bikes!! I noticed you like your bars swept back just like Carmichael.

[@sharpimaging923]

Super stoked for you Cameron. Been following along for a while and I’ve learned a lot from your channel. Your content inspired me to get my own yz250 and get to building as a way to get myself back into motor cross after 4 years off. Your videos are making me hopeful in how my ride will turn out and I really appreciate you doing all that you do for us viewers. Can’t wait to see what you build next! (Supermoto?)

[@lukemetzger8176]

I am so unbelievably stoked to see this build wrap out so nicely. You have taught me more about dirtbikes than anyone i know. You deserve to have such a bad ass bike. Thank you for everything man.

[@WireWeHere]

Resistivity setting of infrared thermometers may be of interest to you. Don't let that laser dot fool you, at a foot away the measurement is already about a 1 inch circle. Shiny is bad but a piece of tape or flat black paint is an easy fix. I prefer thermocouples for anything critical and use them to confirm infrared readings. Peace.

[@freddanger3028]

Man, i can smell the 2 stroke from here!!!!

[@331moto]

7:35 Notice the big air gap? I tried to get my CR250R dailed in and spent WAY TO LONG attempting to get it exact. I'm the same way with chain tension and rear wheel alignment. More so with my CBR600RR than with my CR250R.

[@luckgrip252]

Owww dayum CAM!! Still watchin' this and i'm super satisfied with how this bike is running bro!!!

[@FeelTheFlaw]

Yes, you trimmed that shroud, looks so much better! One thing I would recommend is TM Designs No Leak Exhaust Collar, works great, sealing off all the spooge drips from the expansion chamber/silencer connection.

[@RandomStalker69]

I dont think there is any reason to even do heat cycles. Cant find any credible source for it. All i've ever done is warm it up for about 5 mins and drive with varying throttle for half and hour and do smooth acceleration change oil and done.

[@christophervillarreal8565]

Just ride it! It’s all a myth there’s dozens of videos that prove breaking in a race bike is practically unnecessary especially two strokes.

[@efrey614]

I have a couple bikes that are done up and made perfect for what I want them for with quite a bit of money into them, and made them road legal. My plated wr250f is almost too nice to ride the places I ride it off road, but if this was my bike I think it went too far for an off road machine, and I probably wouldn't want to tear it up off road as the detail is insane on this bike, and it is truly a show piece. Nice job man.
