Edit: I am not sure what happened with the audio in this video. Editing and playback has always sounded far more clear and crisp but it seems like at one moment the video shifts and audio gets muffled for the remainder. I promise it was not like that when I exported it. Scratching my head on this one. It feels great to be chipping away at this project again! Next week I will have the cases back and I can do final prep for paint which will be awesome!

Great one, thanks for videos on this.! - can I suggest a try on the black bolts, BJ?.. Find a satin black spray, and do some wrapping with epoxy.?.. This must be trying,.. I'm not knowing the complete finish, but can be worth trying!?

Why do you think it's a good idea to play music while you're talking? Crazy. Just let the sights and sounds of your surrounds be the sound track. Leave the music for intro, outro, and transitions. Cheers.

You are inspiring me to return to a rebuild project I have that has been on hold for 2 1/2 years. For 13 years I could not find a useable cylinder head for my 40HP Yamaha outboard motor. 3 weeks before I moved to Lake Panasoffkee Florida I found a used head but having plenty of things to repair at my new home, the outboard took a back seat. Now in the dearth of winter I can make it run again.

I do my own zinc plating. It’s a whole new hobby in itself. If you don’t want that, I would suggest buying just the chromates from caswell. The prepping and plating takes a long time, especially if you’re wiring up individual nuts and bolts. The coloured chromate is done afterwards, separately, and it’s just a dip. So you could get the parts commercially plated and then just dip them in black, or gold, yourself. You will need the pre passivate dip as well, but it’s super easy and cheap.

Doing your own zinc plating seems to me like an excellent idea for many reasons. You control everything! Time , scheduling, quantities, quality, colour and thickness. Who else in your area does that? Obviously nobody, otherwise you wouldn't be in the situation you're currently in. Your care and quality of cleanliness on everything you do is an essential qualification for successful plating so you're already halfway there. You have a large community of enthusiasts who probably encounter the exact same problems when they are looking for someone to plate their own parts. This could become a small financially lucrative sideline to your business. I know you are pushed for time but there must be occasions when either one of you can't progress with a project because you're waiting for parts from suppliers or other workshops. The CBX has never been a deadline project and I know you want to get it as good as you possibly can. The finished project to be a fine example of what 'Brick House Builds' represents and the quality of work you do. These are just my thoughts on the subject and I'm sure whatever final decision you make will be the right one.

These things take time. I don't have the clean space but got a zr7 engine and a '79 cb750k, and I just can't afford someone else's shop time. Recall when you found this, huge job! Glad to see you picking back up on it. Looking at that engine will be great stimulus to continue. Gonna be a long job, but a gem of motorcycling history. It'll be worth a bit too. Just trying to be encouraging. Small victories, do one thing at a time, when you have time. Seriously interested in plating, for much the same reasons. Currently reviving a '99 concours that fell into my lap. Enjoy it dude! That's key.

Brings back memories I of a cb900 build I did years back. The big mistake I made though was not cleaning the head enough. I thought it was clean after grit blasting. It looked amazing but some material got into the thread of the cam cover bolts holes. I tightened it down, it's only very low torque but was enough to break out the bottom of the hole. Head back off. Welding required, some machine too. It worked out ok in the end but lesson learned. Really check those blind holes.

Loving this build. (But then, I really enjoy ALL of your stuff!) Keep doing what you’re doing! There are tons of legalities attached to chroming and plating here in the UK too. There are not many places that do it now and the consequence of that is…. Guess what….. it costs a fortune - and takes forever to get anything done!

Glad to see good progress made on the CBX project! You will really enjoy this bike when you get it done & running. Too many people smoke down the cam cover bolts and pull all the threads out of the caps in the process. Great tutorial on installing timeserts in the threaded caps, been there & done that(not with my own CBX!). When assembling the primary jackshaft in the cases, do pay attention to timing the jackshaft because you will play hell when you go to install & time the ignition and it is off even a little bit! Also find an 81-82 CBX clutch basket, they use a spring damper as opposed to the 79-80 baskets with rubber dampers that always clatter. Sending good luck & vibes to you guys on this project! Looking forward to more episodes, thanks BJ!

The hexavalent compound in the old-school black zinc chromate is banned in the uk as well. Hexavalents are extremely carcinogenic and you need a special licence to use it and most plating companies just can't justify the costs and risks involved. I zinc plated the black hardware on my honda ns250 with a trivalent black passivate which is much safer. I purchased it off a plating supply shop on ebay and it turned out really good. Those caswell kits look very good too according to cameron niemela (RIP). That's what motivated me to do my own plating and I found it really satisfying.

Those inserts are something magical, there is another youtube channel that proved how good they are and somehow you can tight them way harder than the original aluminium thread, and i did some repairs with those myself but the ones that are a coil and still worked great, but the thing with the coil ones is that is a good idea to put the hardest thread locker you can find (locktite 271 in my case) just to be sure because they dont have a proper locking like the ones you used.

Just wanting to give you a shout out again and thank you for all your content! So glad to finally see this progress. Making me regret scrapping a 900 engine that I used for parts because it had a thrown rod, but it isn’t a very popular Honda engine. I always feel like everything has potential. Thanks to all your videos Ive been watching over the past 2 years I was able to get that 1975 750 I mentioned last time brought back to life! Super excited about getting it cleaned up and taking some inspiration from your older projects. I want to keep its character like you did with your barn find and keep it as original as possible. Can’t wait to see you guys fire this CBX up for the first time and get it back on the road, but Im sure it will be awhile because it’s colder than a witches t?&%$ out there right now 😂

Alle Achtung, deine Videos schaue ich gerne. Du stellst dort Motorräder vor, die sich jeder als Grundlage für seine schrauberischen Ambitionen leisten kann. Und das ist eher ungewöhnlich für einen US Kanal. Viele etablierte Motorradkanäle in den USA und auch hier in Europa legen mir Motorräder wie z.B.die Ducati Panigale Superlegere für 60.000 € ans Herz. Soviel Geld habe ich nicht und würde ich auch für ein Motorrad nicht ausgeben. Das ist einfach nur elitär. Deine CX500 Builds hingegen finde ich echt klasse. Ich mag die CX500 gerne. Wenn auch dieses Motorrad in Deutschland einen sehr speziellen Ruf geniesst. :)) Abboniert habe ich. Mach weiter so! Grüsse aus Deutschland.

Great stuff. Remember, where CBXs are concerned there are no half measures. Question: your timesert cam cap repairs…the insert level looks a bit low and also about the same diameter as the valve cover retaining bolts’ shoulders. You might end up using thin SS washers/trimming cam cap to compensate. Best of luck with your build, all the headaches will be more than worth it in the end.

Isn’t there a provision allowing the bevel to be cut just enough for the insert to sit flush in its application. No worries regarding stripped threads on CBX heads. Seems most times I check the valve clearances on mine (& check the torque on all the cam cap bolts…they sometimes snap in regular service!) and torquing things back on the low side of spec. with a proper in/lb wrench it’s not unusual for something to strip. Sadly, CBX castings are known for their porosity, you just never know when/if they are gonna ruin you 1/2hr. maintenance job. Looking forward to your progress, loving your process 👏 Mike C.

I've always been this way and getting into a larger space allowed me to go a bit crazy but I'd like to tame it back a bit. I want to do less projects but do them better. Less vehicle insurance, less parts to order, less property tax, etc. Efficiency is a big goal

IMO Don’t get the kit, get chemicals only from Caswell. Get your anodes and accessories elsewhere. It’s far less expensive that way. I feel caswell charges little extra for anodes and buckets.

Exactly. The kit is too expensive but their chemicals are very good. Much cheaper to buy power supply, etc, elsewhere

I mean they are charging more to provide a convenience and save me time which is extremely valuable. My issue is that I'll spend 5 hours shopping the best deal to save $10. That's not cost effective for my brain

So I'd go for brand new replacement parts rather than re-plating if the initial cost is 4 - 5 hundred bucks for the plater.

Well not all of these pieces are available to even replace. With all the other bikes I have i know it would be a good investment. Id have a minimum of $500 in having just half of my stuff plated

You've already introduced media into every crevice of the cases by vapor blasting. Don't compound your problem by sand blasting.

If you do start plating yourself, I'd guess that if you took a holiday in Mexico then you may get back home and find the necessary chemicals for black zinc had miraculously appeared in your luggage....
