CX500 Street Tracker Build - Fabricating The Stainless Exhaust (Part 2) - EP 19

[@garyyorke1080]

I'm loving the way your describing how and why your doing what your actually doing . I was a bit puzzled by the fact you were having a longer bit to 1 side than you did on the merge. ( I started watching a few minutes after the explanation) Then later it became clear . The shape of the headers needs one to be able to be seperated. Went back and started the vid over to be sure . Came out very nice matching the lines of the engine and the muffler matches the frame . Great informative vid thanks

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you Gary! I feel there has been a lack of explanation when people build stuff so I go the extra mile to explain my reasoning as I go. Thanks for checking it out!

[@AdamMcNutt]

Nice save!!

Hey man, I love the content! I came here looking for info on a 650 engine swap and stayed for the quality. You have some skills man, I can't wait to see this project continue to evolve!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Wow man thank you! Im honored!

[@garyyorke1080]

Silly I know but I keep coming back to these 2 videos on the exhaust . It's just a simple video and easy to watch the development of how the pipes come in. to shape

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Well that means a lot that they can still hold attention 🙏🙏

[@S09Engineering]

The CX is looking good! I can't wait to hear that exhaust.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Saaaaaame!

I love your work bro, you’ve got the patience of a saint, but it’s good to see that you are only human and get tired like the rest of us Hehehehe 😂 , i’m in the process of getting a CX500 And wanting to make a cafe racer just like yours , I have a Inverter welder I need to get the Tig handpiece for it , Love your videos very inspirational with lots of detail, all the best for future projects👍

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Well thanks so much Terry! I definitely have my moments lol. Best of luck on that build 🤘

[@ChopperFisher]

Damn thats lookin good!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank ya!

[@jishh]

Love your fab work man! Its looking epic already ⚡️ makes me want to buy a tig welder!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thanks man! Once you have one you start thinking of different things you can make with some more precision. The trade off now is that it only highlights how much more I need a lathe. Snowball effect.

On the 650 motor what's on the bottom of the oil pan the thing that's bolted to the bottom is it to clean the pickup screen

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

The 650 engines had an actual removable oil sump for extra oil capacity.

[@righthoekstra]

Great project!✌

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank you! It is for a customer and we are excited to be building such a top level machine.

[@righthoekstra]

Before it goes to the customer, I hope we can see some driving videos from it, curieus about the handeling with the shocks and wheels upgrade, and offcourse the sound! Thats 1 lucky cliënt who has his bike being build here!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

@@righthoekstra oh that is a given. We plan to try to get as much riding content as possible.

By the way, I liked the look of the black frame, the blue wheels, the gold anodized forks and the brute metal colored tank. But that changed .....

[@Flashdogger]

I'm trying to find the video that shows how you actually connect the rear cowl to the frame. Also I'm wondering how does the seat cover or material attach to the metal pan?

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

The cowl just has 3 screws on a frame. The seat material just gets glued to the pan.

[@cainbeeping8480]

Nice

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank ya!

[@Utii89]

How do you not swear on video?! When you struggled with the pipe and exhaust... Amazing work man, keep it up! Best regards from Marius/uti_s14

I can't heart this comment enough hahahahaha! I have plenty of clips that aren't PG or where I'm obviously biting my tongue lol.
