The Davis Designs CX500

[@knightvisionvideo7379]

The seat was made by C-racer.com The helmet is a Biltwell Gringo and the visor is by The Equilibrialist. Those seem to be the most common questions. Sorry I am not on here more often. For other questions first try watching the complete walk-around video I just made. Thanks for all of the support and kind words :)

Built cx500 cafe racer myself. I know all that journey so well. Remember working 3 long days over the long weekend putting everything together to start it for the first time. Unforgettable! Extra points for Snow Canyon. Been there for IM70.3. Wish I could ride my cx there. Never sell it, get old with it! Great build!

[@Badenhawk]

I love that you kept the dual shocks in the back, I love that curve in the frame right behind where the air box used to be, it seems unique to the cx500 and I see a lot of people deleting that in favor of a monoshock. Well done man!

[@stephenhafer4090]

Nice build, way prettier than my 79 back in the early 80’s!

[@allistairneil8968]

That bike is absolutely sick!!!

[@lfcwilli]

Love a cx500 and this is a beauty

[@jansbamusic4778]

I never saw a more stunning cafe racer build as the Garth Allison CX 500 yellow machine, it's awesome front to end, but this one in black is more street mean, it's a wonderfull job done, congrats , must be a great feeling of accomplishment and drive

[@gilpul71]

so weird your video have so few views, such a nice bike, story and video editing. Nice job in everything. Today I just made my cb350f run properly, and was looking for more inspiration ideas, and from all the videos I watched, including cafe racer tv, this one made me reply and say thank you.

[@abbersj2935]

Thank you for a wonderful video. Really well produced and shot. Truly professional. Oh yes, bike is great too!

[@knightvisionvideo7379]

[@Crazy-Constructions]

Awesome bike, I built a Cafe Racer from a CX500 Turbo, it looks like you painted the cylinder covers like this.😁

[@jeanpierreguinard3497]

He probably took valves cover from the a CX 650...they are like this.

[@Baseballkid2234]

That was a awesome video. Sick bike dude

[@Sjors126]

Dude, I have to give it to you, this is - hands down - the most stunning CX500 I have ever seen! I guess you really can tell what you get when you spend +two years on a project like this. Any chance you have the parts-list easy shareable?

Nice work son

[@zoshcustoms]

Very cool built. Congrats. I just started and dismantled a SR500 as first built. Your words about doing this are so true... And I really like your browwn-rimmed glasses. Which brand is that? :-) Please go on and post more stuff like that

[@paologrimaldi2911]

Ciao , which muffler you have chosen

[@timange124]

I’m very seriously looking at a ‘79 that’s already converted to a cafe racer. In pretty decent shape from first look.. any info you can give me would be great. I’ve been in love with cafe racers for years, and more so Honda cafe racers.. I’m only used to riding my 2022 cb300r with ABS, which concerns me a little. It would be my second bike, and I I feel like it’s a nice step up.. any thoughts? Ps. That video was filmed so well. It was short, but so many good shots throughout (and a gorgeous bike!)

Please tell me the site or the company from where you got the remove able seat!!

[@blackpearl6575]

So beautiful! I have a question, how did you lift the tank so it’s a strait lined? Did you do any modifications so you could fit in the seat? I have the same seat and I was just wondering If I could have some good advice regarding that🙏🏽

[@knightvisionvideo7379]

If I remember correctly I had basically just welded a 1 inch x 1 inch cylinder and then re-tapped it for the rear screw so the tank sat up a little higher in the rear. The whole rear of the frame was chopped and then my buddy designed a new section on Solidworks, as well as the battery/electronics tray.

[@d3one3]

Is the exhaust custom or from a DIY kit, etc.? Thanks

[@knightvisionvideo7379]

custom fab

[@FlyingMachine-mw5gr]

What bike did those forks and triple tree come from?

[@knightvisionvideo7379]

forks are from a 1983 gl650, cut down about 1.75". triple tree as well, except for the top clamp which was custom fabbed by cognito moto if memory serves. took a few other things to make it all work.

[@gerardlombardi4087]

Smart, good on you. Nice job. My question is, why chop up a piece of HONDA motorcycle history, that belongs in a museum?
