What can we Build For $200, this Motorcycle.

[@dougaranda6187]

I’m pushing 70, and that’s quite possibly the absolute coolest home made contraption I’ve ever seen. Wow Mustie.

[@samsonian]

Yeah, I was thinking either that thing should be in a museum for either motorcycles or even folk art! Do you also think maybe Mustie missed his true calling as a prop designer for Hollywood? Certainly seems to me that bike could have been in a Goonies remake or something…

[@donparker8246]

I love the rat rod/steampunk/modern art look. Very cool piece of work Darren. 👍😁❤️

[@dougaranda6187]

Art is in the eye of the beholder. To my eye, this is art. The best kind of art, right from your creative center. Very, very cool !!

[@after5auto133]

I followed along years ago when you first built the bike. Still amazed at how you just used what you had laying around. Can’t wait to see you build another one

[@pdub7352]

Here, here! For what it's worth, Mustie, count me among those who look forward to another of your creative bike builds. Mechanicreativity

That was the Mustie 1 I remember!

[@after5auto133]

I also appreciate the fact that Mustie has never forgotten where he came from. I’ve had the privilege of meeting several youtubers over the last 11 years and some have sadly forgotten where it all started. Thank you Mustie1 for keeping your channel the same as it has all ways been

[@hellshade2]

@AfterSauto i have a friend who wanted a trailer for his chevy s10 pickup. he found someone who was selling another one that was one year older than his but had a blown motor. he talked the guy down on his price and bought it for $150.00 bucks. he got it home and removed the cab and motor/transmission and cut up the framed and welded it all together and and made the pick up bed into a trailer. the truck also has a cap on it so it worked out very nice if you gad to haul stuff you did not to get wet when it was raining...

Not only do you know engines and teach so well, you are also an amazing artist!! Not to many people that could do what you do brother!! Look forward to seeing a new build!

Midweek Mustie. Love it !

[@richair1527]

The genius of mustie 1. Or perhaps "Mustie Genius". Tea pot exhaust and ice cream scoop air intakes. So creative. Love this bike.

[@roberthocking9138]

Wow was that 7 years ago, I remember watching when you built it. Time flys. Those tea pots on the end of the exhaust are a crack up 😂. One of my favourite builds

[@josephcormier5974]

It's nice to see her running around again excellent video thank you for sharing five stars brother

This really belongs in a museum somewhere. Meat thermometers, noodle strainers, and forks. 👏 A work of art. Your dogs tags say it all.

[@sonnymoorehouse1941]

What an awesome creation !!!!!! when i found your channel I watched all the videos you shared on these builds. I enjoy them all. You should do more !!!!

[@BruceBoschek]

I remember that build well. I was amazed how you found and chose the parts to give it a unified look. That little teapot (or whatever it is) with the flapping lid is really a hoot. Thanks for bringing this back into view again.

[@DeadKoby]

Back-Yard engineering and Artistry all in one piece.

[@charliemansonUK]

Like quite a few in the comments, I remember when you built this, the catering store items etc. I think it's time to build another, for all our mental health goodness. It's been a blast watching you wrench stuff over the years buddy, thank you Charlie 🇬🇧

[@63straycat22]

Thanks Mustie. I got hooked on your channel when you built this bike. You said you built these to Improve your mental health, some of us watch you work and talk to us to improve ours. Many thanks. Stray

I don't know why, but seeing those two kettle lids flapping about when the bike was running just brought a feeling of absolute joy to my heart 😁.

Thank you Mustie for this video. I remember this build I loved it then and now . Would love to see him build another one .

Double Mustie week! Perfect length to be able to watch before work.

A pleasant surprise this morning. Glad to see you bringing this bike out again. I know how much fun it was for you. Make another one bro ! Good for your mental health.

[@vincentmannelli2258]

Hey guys and how's it going? Like I have said a million times,you are incredibly gifted!!!!! Your abilities to build, troubleshoot and repair mechanical devices leaves me speechless!!! I'm glad you are enjoying your motorbike and the time it took to build it. Later!!!!!

[@andreacrashe9894]

*Darren, Thanks for the memories of seeing this bike again. Yep it is TIME to build another one. In fact why not bring them all out into one video and seeing them all running again.*

[@jonathontaylor8861]

I thoroughly enjoyed the whole build series, it inspired me to build a Twin Engine Mini Drag Bike with Triple Disc Brakes operated by Cable.

These bikes you made are truly works of art Darren! Thanks for showing us! I remember a video a while back where you showed us all of the creations you made like this. Love the channel and keep up the awesome work!!!

I discovered your channel then back-binged into this build. It's truly a prodigious display of talent and creativity! Talent in the mechanical assemblage, creativity in the gorgeous aesthetics. It's mechanical art of the highest degree! A legacy build that'll outlive us all.

[@irishmuscle7352]

Wow that thing is freaking awesome, one of the coolest steampunk looking bikes I’ve ever seen, and fully functional too, not just some stuff added to a normal bike. Hats off to you Mustie, you’re super innovative

[@irishmuscle7352]

@xrrxy vvoi Mustie’s site? What site? As far as I know he doesn’t even have a website

[@artemartem1134]

I love that even with TWO engines installed, you can still pedal the bike. You are a master of fabrication! Plus steampunk is a great theme to build something like this on. THE TEAPOTS! LOL They get me laughing every time.

[@wilsonlaidlaw]

Roland Emett (machines for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Festival of Britain Train) would be proud of a creation like this - well done Mustie!

Remember when this was built! Nice to see it still kicking about. Your talk about wanting to do more and more on future builds reminds me a lot of one of the early steam car makers.. I think it was doble, every car was slightly different as he kept thinking of new things and different ways to do things..

[@tarstarkusz]

I don't know if you know this, but you can get a freewheel for the crank (not for a one piece crank though, only a 3 piece). By using a freewheel on the crank, you can still pedal, but you can still run the power through the chaning without forcing the pedals to turn.

A lot happened in my life since, some good, a lot bad, but I'm always looking for your Sunday morning posts to bring some light in my life !

I recall when you made that bike using the ice cream scoops to help scoop air onto the head, and of course the tea pots for your exhaust. I was blown away with your skills as a mechanic back than while watching you build all of your bikes. I miss those days, bud. Time to build another bike Darren this time make it a real Bike that has real horse power capabilities with all the gooffy looking gadgets and all btw as long as it has brakes solid frame lights safety steering abilities and can meet all those basic requirements there should be no trouble being able to register the vehicle ..I hope you do this brother. btw Every time I see those tea cup lids bobble up and down from the exhaust it just puts a smile on my face. I tell ya Darren you truly do have a creative mind and those creative juices that day were flowing and flowing well, that's for sure when you decided to use them tea cups to finish off that exhaust.
