Freddie Dobbs' Bonneville | THE END OF THE ROAD!

Stickers Available here: buymeacoffee.com/thewurks/e/2...
Join me in this video after taking on the challenge to fix @FreddieDobbs Triumph Bonneville T100SE. This motorcycle is the central focal point of his channel and has been right there with him on many adventures from all over Europe to the Sahara, across the Atlas Mountains to the local coffee shop!
In this video we reach the end of a long 6 month build taking this Triumph Bonneville from scrap to photo worthy motorcycle. Join us enjoying the final bits, some minor issues and then the big day at the DGR handing @FreddieDobbs his bike back...
If you wish to join us for the DGR either sign up to the Tamworth ride or a ride from other midlands dealerships which are heading to the Triumph HQ Hinckley factory.

I don't know what Joe does for a living if it's not KZbin full time but he, and Emily, deserve every recognition in the world and to find someone that talented, dedicated and passionate is rare and it makes for spectacular viewing. Joe and Emily for wheeler dealers.... with bikes.

[@josephchai4401]

The level of collaboration between all of you has made motorcycle history on KZbin. Salute to Jo and Emily.

[@TheWurks]

Thanks Joseph, plenty more to come...

[@anthonycook8090]

Like many, I suppose, I'd never heard of this channel until I followed Freddies bike here. I watched the whole series and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's been the best telly on a Sunday afternoon. Thanks guys -x

[@TheWurks]

Wow, thanks! More to come with the Royal Enfield we've got to now consume all our time :)

[@joel.rundle]

I’m sure Freddie knows how lucky he is to have a bloke like you in the picture Joe, bloody fine work. I hope you have to start turning down work for being inundated with requests from people to work the same magic on their bikes!

[@Roger.Coleman1949]

Brilliant achievement Joe & Emily + Neil's final detailing. The tank badges really work with a nod to the early 1950s styling bars like on my '54 Thunderbird .Freddie owes a huge debt of gratitude to you with your offer to take the Bonnie on !.

[@warrengarfield309]

Welcome to the world of motorcycle maintenance {cleaning} Freddie, esp. chain lube fling.

[@nickaxe771]

So glad I got up early to ride down to tamworth from near liverpool on my watercooled T100.....quite chilly day to start out.....M6 was quite.....but I made it in 1.5 hrs......quite a ride for me at 71.....but so worth it. The Bonnie was there outside undercovers....I saw all 3 of you and exchanged a few words with all 3 of you.....even got some Wurks Stickers from Emily.....gee she looked so cool in her vintage outfit. Thank you Joe and Emily for sharing the whole experience of re-building Freddies bike. FANTASTIC JOB.

[@TheWurks]

Incredible Nick, Thank you so much for making that huge effort to see us on the day. Was great to catch you. Ride safe and hopefully see you out there sometime. Stick around we have plenty in the making too.

[@Thunderbolt6fifty]

Nice people doing nice things and sharing their knowledge and mutual calm respect, (without calling each other “mate” ), is hugely appealing and motivating, well done boys and girls, well done.

[@TheWurks]

Thank you so much for your kind words and taking time to comment. We massively appreciate the support!

[@volt8684]

Freddie has golden orbs. Best life, gorgeous girl, best bike and very very best mechanical engineer and friend.

[@DimitriLeeBX]

The satisfaction of a job well done. If Freddie ever wants to move on from this bike I hope it finds its way back to you.

[@parasinthephilippines]

Absolutely a stellar job. Right from the outset it was clear the mammoth task in front of you. Emily adding to the joy of watching the weekly vlogs. And then to finish it off with the detailing just added the cherry on top. Congratulations to you on your success and im sure there are big things ahead. Well done.

[@TheWurks]

Glad you enjoyed it! Plenty more to come...

[@BobberRider]

£1670? That has to be the bargain of the century! Well done to all involved, stunning outcome. 👍

[@TheWurks]

Thanks 👍

[@packrat61]

Joe you Emily and Neil deserve a huge pat on the back you guys have done a fantastic job of the Bonnie i so hope that Freddie looks after it and i hope he does pay you for you work ...that is alot of work to do for nothing ...realy really hope Freddie looks after it from now on i will be putting some coffee shouts up for you and Emily very soon

[@TheWurks]

Thanks pal!

[@ianseddon9347]

Supreme video - Emily you’re a genius!

[@pm8465]

Watched Freddie take the Bonny out in the rain to the Ace Cafe. Don't know how he could. Joe, I know a good hitman 🤔

[@neilurquhart8622]

I still can’t believe that all the outstanding work done on Freddie’s bike only took 52 hours….simply outstanding

[@alexphillips8387]

Joe and Emily, lovely to meet you guys at the Bike Shed Show today! Thanks for taking the time to say hi, and the sticker. Wishing you guys the best with the channel moving forward, well deserved with the efforts you put into the project. Alex (the guy by the entrance at the start)

[@Lilgreenshed]

@alexphillips8387 it was awesome to talk to you. Such a nice welcome and great start to our bike shed show experience. Hope you had a good time at the show, did you do any shopping? I have my eye on some Goldtop gloves, they're so soft!! Thank you for your support. Ride safe Emily

[@trevorthorn5011]

To be honest you've done an incredible job for him He needs now to look after it and not be a wally I've roden motorcycles for over 50 years you need to look after them not abuse them I appreciate it's not mechanically minded but you really needs to up his game all the effort you put into rebuilding it waste the time

[@silverfoxracing1124]

Strange to think that I watched Joe and Emily’s first video with the Triumph out of nosiness and now they run one of my favourite channels on the whole of KZbin. It’s not just the bikes, it’s the fact they seem like genuinely lovely people - I’ve got my Wurks sticker on helmet proudly and can’t wait to see the next project…and the inevitable growth of the channel. Have a well earned rest - looking forward to more 👍🏼 Chris

[@TheWurks]

Thanks Chris, no real break here. We've cleared out the workshop and already have the next project on the go...

[@Alancclive]

Jo and Emily , I have watched both of you restore Freddie’s bike from start to finish. I have been so impressed with Jo’s skill and knowledge throughout, not to mention Emily’s knowledge and input also, well done both of you. I sincerely hope that Freddie will appreciate and look after the bike as it now deserves. Well done to both of you. PS I’m now a subscriber and watch all you produce 👍👍

[@TheWurks]

Thanks pal, you're too kind. We appreciate you sticking around, we have plenty more to come.

[@FabulousWanderers]

🌟🌟 "Champions" 🧡 Ps, needed an extra star for Neil who did the detailing 🌟

[@mattgreene01]

I must be reading this wrong: so it only added up to nearly £1700 in cost of labour? A whole spick-and-span nut and bolt rebuild? That’s an insane value for money considering this is now virtually a brand new bike. Incredible work!

[@TheWurks]

Hi Matt, no £1700 ish was parts. We worked 53 or so hours on it. There was no labour charged!

[@mysterybiker1717]

Jo, you are the mechanic i aspire to be. Looking forward to what comes next on your channel.

[@gerardcullen5131]

Fantastic finish on the triumph Joe Emily and Neil well done loved the series from start to finish and I will continue to watch you in the future 😀 😊 👍

[@dlmp70]

Joe, this restoration is UNBELIEVABLE! And, what’s even more unbelievable is the how reasonable the finally cost of the entire project has been! I was flabbergasted (in a good way) that you could bring the bike back to better-than-new for such fraction of the cost of new bike! Amazing work! And thanks for sharing the journey with us.

[@luddite6239]

Fantastic! Kudos to all involved. Neil's seven hours on detailing is probably longer than Freddie's spent on cleaning for the entire period of his ownership!

[@blkfxd02]

The Triumph looks incredible …… Great job Joe.

[@user-wz3ok9ms2t]

What an incredible journey!

[@TheWurks]

Certainly was...

[@richardjohnson3463]

The cat obviously knew what was coming if it fired up! 😂😂😂

[@jameskeefe4797]

I love the way the tank badge design, now matches the silver cooler fins on the engine. It looks pure class! Well done Joe and Emily, for turning Freddie's motorcycle into the most beautiful Bonneville I have ever seen! Absolutely brilliant!

[@michaelcomerford5509]

I wish I had your skills Joe , fantastic job and Emily . Triumph dealers should take a leaf out of your book .well done .

[@nealeburgess6756]

Great work Joe, Emily and Neil. The bike looks and sounds fabulous. However, I do have one problem. I have fallen in love with Emily. And she is already taken! Joe and Emily, you are a very lucky couple to have each other. Keep caring and working and learning together.

[@user-pm8gw3gp4x]

Joe and Emily….. you took a bike that had, as they say, had been ridden hard and put up wet…many times. And, totally transformed it into a bike that is far better than when it was new. Outstanding does not quite cover it. Enjoyed each and every one of your videos. Look forward to what’s in the future for you both. Thank you for a very enjoyable journey. One more thing….don’t let Freddie change the pipes.

[@user-gn7cm6db2d]

Outstanding result on a bike almost scrapped.

[@TheWurks]

Thanks!

[@stevelacombe5291]

Thanks Neil!

[@dogzero1]

You did a great jon on Freddies Bike. I hope he paid you for all your hard work.

[@peterhobbs7609]

What an amazing journey this has been, and what amazing people you are to have given so much time and effort to bring back a bike from the dead to so much better than new, just superb 👌

[@daveco1270]

Bike looks great. I'm not a fan of that king and queen seat, but Freddie must like it for doing 2 up with his lady.

[@molino121]

Well done Joe 👏

[@vespaveloce1924]

Sterling job, both of you. Hopefully the channel goes from strength to strength following on from this.

[@markgallagher2386]

Joes efforts have put the two previous attempts to repair the bike by so called motorcycle mechanics shame. There are decent competent motorcycle technicians to be found. If you know them share them, use them, don’t loose them. Big well done to Joe to show that knowing what your doing makes a big difference.

[@roadsweride_pt]

Stunning work on Freddie's Bonnie!! I'd definitely trust you with my Triumph, eyes closed! Well done Joe and Emily

[@Jagshemasher]

You did a fantastic job on the rebuild but the detailing really makes the whole thing pop. Really enjoyed this whole series - great job . . . . in an era of disposable everything it is great to seem a bike that was effectively going to be written off being given a whole new life.

[@TheWurks]

Thanks for your kind words pal!

[@olliewhiddett143]

It was great to meet you today Joe and Emily! I’ve loved following this project from start to finish, your precision and expertise is off the scale. Can’t wait to see what you get up to next. Great work!

@olliewhiddett143 we really enjoyed meeting you too. Thank you for your kind words and support. Did you have a good time at the Bike Shed Show? Ride safe, Emily

It's a leap of faith to send your bike to a mechanic, hoping it gets fixed.😍

My dad was a great mechanic and it’s easy for me to have great admiration for this gentleman.

[@johnparsons4941]

Well done joe emily fantastic job you are legends

[@ThatBobGuy850]

What an incredible adventure this has been! First, watching Freddie on his channel suffer with the problems he was having as the bike was running worse and worse...and then switching over here to **your** channel, Joe, to watch the transformation. It's been an awesome coming together - more than just a "collab" as the kids say. I don't know what the monetary arrangements were, and frankly they're none of our business. But Joe, Freddie owes you a tremendous debt of gratitude for all of the time and energy and parts and blood, sweat and tears that you and Emily have put into this project. We, the viewers do too. It has been endlessly entertaining. And it's funny...in a way, I'm kind of sad that it's over. It really turned out brilliant, and you can be proud of the (finally!) finished product. Great job!

[@TheWurks]

Thank you pal, that was very kind of you. We have plenty more to come so be sure to stick around.

[@86scottjm]

"So you've got no foreign stuff anywhere" a man after my own heart 😂

[@christophersherrington5412]

Its so sad seeing Freddie with the back to back brake downs. So glad he got it fixed and got to feel how well a Bonneville should go. Well done Joe and Emily.

[@TheWurks]

Thanks Chris, very much appreciate the support.

[@Rob-lj1jl]

I guess I could not go on such an adventure on my loud chopper. Would not be very gentlemanly. It's amazing what you and also the detailer did !! Plus I love your little CCM. I'm only used to that name from ice hockey.

[@TheWurks]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jamesfisher1827]

Lovely to see Freddie thanking you both, and I think you are wise to stipulate you do next years service. Maybe Freddie will look after the bike properly now.

[@TheWurks]

Absolutely we will no doubt be seeing the Bonnie again in the future!

[@travellingbilly.4032]

Full marks to Joe and his crew for a really Top-Line job. The "Freddy Dobbs Triumph" series however also serves to focus on other,more mainstream Motorcycle Shops,who for whatever reason could not,or would not diagnose and repair Freddy's machine. Good Motorcycle Mechanics are a fast disappearing species. Hopefully The Wurks can take on an enthusiastic apprentice on the back of this ! 🙂

Joe & Emily you guys knocked it out of the park for Freddie as I knew you would. The bike looks fantastic without losing its character. I was hoping to make the unveil but sadly life gets in the way sometimes. I think Freddie got more than he could have ever hoped for. Well done for saving this bike.
