Fair play Cameron! Takes a lot of integrity to be that transparent, and it's really interesting to know the numbers behind not only the bike, but the career that you've made of this. Great to see you enjoy helping others. Look forward to more amazing content. Stay humble!

This is why I want to buy used bikes with some mods already done. Saves you some money off a new bike as well as the parts.

[@jacobshepherd3997]

They wouldn’t be wrong. It’s just an unfortunate fact of life that when you pour money into a car/bike you’re not going to get that money back out of it. Obviously this would be worth a little bit note than blue book due to the condition being like new and having new parts. But there’s no way you’d get anywhere close to the value back out of this bike

[@nickmayo2647]

Someone please put my guy in a dirt bike magazine 🤦‍♂️👍👍

[@bbundridge]

Cam, hats off to you for being so straightforward. I hope when I get my new place and the shop I want to do something similar to this. I've always wanted to do this, sans the online storefront but working and restoring bikes is always been something I have been passionate about. Still need to get some more items, like a bigger air compressor and sandblasting and an old oven but this definitely helps push to make those goals a reality. So huge thank you for being open and transparent.

[@jimmadonna1436]

Cameron, the bike is not just a bike, it's a WORK OF ART!It demonstrates how talented, focused and dedicated you are at everything you do! Subscribing to your channel was one of the best and most entertaining things I've ever done. You inspired me to recover my seat. It turned out looking GREAT. I told you this and you were genuinely happy for me. Thanks again for your help and your channel. You'll never know how much I love it and RESPECT YOU!THANKS!

[@walkerw3091]

Open, honest, inspiring, you're a contribution to this world, really, I thank you very much.

[@stuntoholics2110]

I’m glad you showed this no other KZbin creator would.

You are such an awesome dude, I've been following you for a while and really broke my heart when you had your health issues. It's so awesome to see you back strong as ever.

[@pgmurray76]

Wow! You were the first person on KZbin, at least that I watch regularly, that gave a total and concise breakdown of revenue and sponsorship info! Thank you Cameron! I am blown away. It did take you a decade to get there, but you definitely honed the level and quality of your work over that time period. It really shows, and your videos are superior. Congratulations. I loved watching the break in video. The CR wanted to fly! I had a feeling you would be in 1st gear for the smaller track. Crispy Ripper!

[@observingrogue7652]

That motorcycle, it the epitome of a passion-project, and functional work of art. Great job. And yes, I'm inspired. I'm inspired so hard. Thank you.

[@rohdacious]

You have got to be one of the most genuine people on the planet. You're an inspiration to any DIY'er who is looking to take matters into your own hands. I started watching your videos back when you first got the CR250 and I can only imagine the fulfillment that you must feel to have created a such a masterpiece. Keep educating all your followers and stay camstrong.

[@maxweidenbach2919]

I’ve only just stumbled across your channel and this build but I gotta say, your honesty and transparency has been so refreshing! Not only have you stepped up and put out the reality of the process as far as the $$ go, but you also built an awesome bike and did a super great job. I also have to commend you on sticking it out through the whole leukaemia battle. My best mate battled leukaemia in high school for three years and I saw first hand the stress and struggles it put him and his family through. Bike aside, it’s just good to see you come out of all that motivated and looking healthy

[@kevinwyse4970]

congrat's buddy, I've become hooked on your videos since i came across you couple of weeks ago. Learned so much and incredible to see what you create. All the years you've invested into your business, it's great to see you succeed in something you love. You deserve every penny you've earned

Firstly thanks for being as transparent as you were seeing most people would just thank a sponsor in one vid and never mention a word about them later. You even went the mile further and got discounts for everyone who wanted to do something like this. Thanks Cam. Keep it pryme

[@tomnekuda3818]

Really great job....the bike is super. The most important part, tho, is that you've been an inspiration to us, both in your battle for your health and your desire to keep going on the build. I'm an old guy but I look to your vids to pick me up when I have so many troubles with my worn out body(and bikes!). Thanks, Tom Keep the Faith!

Basically because carbon fibre is more labour intensive and the manufacture process less automated. Try to build a carbon fibre motor cross bike and see what it costs...
