GSXR 1000 Rebuild Series, This thing SUCKS

[@Gixxerbrah]

Looks good to me

[@rozi5129]

still beats a 50k shiny and squeaky clean ducati 😆

[@yesterdaysgarage]

Looks like my stuff

[@patrickmba7638]

Forgive the obvious question,but why not just get another Gixxer of the same year if that's the major thing for you?

[@willyphister494]

Brah if you can ride that death trap the way you do/did then I'd love to see what you could do with a brand spanking new bike... Start torture testing reviewing every sport bike on the market

[@mala7794]

As long as it isnt brah thats riding. He would be passed by a ninja 400 in amatuer group at the track. ;)​@@rozi5129

[@AC-Ninja]

I was instantly fascinated by this in the first min I was hooked to this series... Just think. He was doing 180 in this thing barely held together lmfao.. What a legend.

[@Gspotgarage]

With backpacks on for date videos

[@fingers8087]

Lost some fairings on Christmas Day rippin too hard lmfaooo

[@stanparker9556]

I've done 170+ on my 636 with the body being held by zip ties more times than I can count.

[@Gspotgarage]

@@stanparker9556 sure you did.

[@stanparker9556]

@@Gspotgarage the bike did 169 stock. The body panels got busted up stunting the bike. All real riders have zip ties. You shouldn't ride, although I can already tell you don't.

[@MotorcycleRebuilds]

These bikes are why Jake quit being a mechanic for other people’s.

[@LifeMyWay007]

LMAO - Jake's #1 comments during teardown... "WTF is This???" and "WTF does that go to???" Gonna be a FUN Series

I love how this bike PERFECTLY depicts the average gsxr owner 😂

[@Denmark_1974]

Only in USA.

[@wolf-eat-tiger]

My dad wrecked his gsxr and I rebuilt it then he went off the deep end stopped riding it Sold it to a crackhead and now it’s in shambles. Makes me sad

[@thepsychicpeach8425]

Nah my shit is the same no lie. Steel wires holding shit, missing bolts, ebay exhaust, mismatch levers, smoked visor, and a 4 inch bolt for a right foot peg.

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

And Mr Brah as well. Its perfect. I was expecting..... no less.. No more.. This.... exact thing.

[@Username-2]

@@Denmark_1974The gsxr is gonna be only in the USA from now on anyway because of eu emissions regulations so enjoy that.

[@xrickel559]

Brahs bike being completely clapped makes me love him even more 😂

[@aitutaki50]

Hi Jake...thanks a lot for rebuilding Gixxer Brah's bike...I'd just always assumed that he was having it regularly tuned & maintained @ his buddy's shop--since he lives close by to it, & he seems to drop it off there a lot...actually, I am completely shocked at its state of complete disrepair--especially considering how hard he pushes it on so many of his rides (at least the ones he posts on KZbin)...I know you'll do great job on it!

[@maldenfoster]

His buddy’s shop is really just a dealership they don’t do very much bike maintenance besides the dealership inventory also g.b. Isn’t very mechanically inclined

[@ZackGoes]

I volunteer my bike for your next rebuild series.

[@bakerXderek]

I'm definitely watching this build, your build vids are my favorite.

[@fattestwhiteguyever757]

Eyyeeaaaahhhh.

[@funny3scene]

Cheah

[@grahamnelson5376]

This series is going to be everything I need to feel better about my clapped out track bike, and the awful work of the previous owner 😅

[@drexlr613]

“previous owner” 😉

[@OzTrollracing]

Aw man I feel this I bought an asbk bike thinking I would get something that was really well built it has been the biggest ongoing nightmare 😅🤣

[@AlexRR1]

That’s the type of content we want to see from you Jake! 🎉

[@Curry3659]

That's so messed up. I'm sure he would hate to work on shit bikes for a living again....

[@AlexRR1]

@@Curry3659 I would do it for free, obviously videos riding around are boring and since jake started to do so his channel happened to have less views.

[@stonesie81]

I really like your reactions to this bike, I've felt the same working on friends bikes a ton! WD-40 is amazing as a degreaser, it's mostly Kerosene and fish oil so it smells nicer than any other degreaser too (In a closed garage this really matters), it's the best thing I have found for removing old chain lube.

[@maldenfoster]

… sams club purple degreaser I use it for degreasing the literal inside of engines

[@rejourn]

this is a really good chance for us k5 / k6 people to see some tutorials. With the bike being so old its hard to get info on these sometimes.

[@netwatch7261]

Agreed, there isn't much on the internet aside from the manual.

[@kristoforf5713]

This should be a good series! every zip tie on a GSXR adds .05 HP so keep that in mind....

[@freshboy2339]

Jake spraying that WD-40 like Lysol 😂

[@phil4986]

Everything that can wear out on a motorcycle will be worn out on that motorcycle. I wouldn't be surprised if the frame sections the bearings sit in aren't hollowed out. It is a tribute to how strong the stock bike is that you are actually having something left to fix. Good luck.

[@Lex3501]

This will be great content to watch. I'm looking forward to your GSXR Bro rebuild series on this bike.. Dang, difficult to believe he let that thing deteriorate like it has.

[@jshawley]

The gold box in the tail is an Annitori QuickShifter. Althought, it didn't appear to be hooked up. Great quick shifter, if all the parts are there.

[@Rural_Racooon]

Cool to sit back and watch the entire process from tear down to cleaning and eventually to some new part installs. Huge fan of both of you guy's channels. Jake has been an inspiration to wanna get a bike since i found him on YT.

[@nplexraider3985]

Jake I love your videos and I hate that KZbin doesn’t pop them up for me enough. Keep up the good work man!

[@Ian.IgnitionTV]

I’m honestly looking forward to this. This will be a good series

[@TheGorillaBiker]

Tbh this is the bike build type I prefer. Not a crazy money dream build, more of a "I bought a terrible lemon cus it's all I could afford and now let's make it probably ok maybe sometimes"

[@Kmortisk]

Actually really looking forward to this series!

[@spitthatmoraleout8603]

I feel so much better bout my bike now. And I will 100% fit in to being a Gsxr brah.

[@Gixsir]

I bought a gsxr 600 years ago not knowing about bike culture. At first I didn’t want to embrace it but over time I realized with stuff like this I’m a full on gixxer bro

[@Jeredsmith]

Jake's enthusiasm level for this rebuild is in a downtrend📉 the whole video lol

[@Curry3659]

This is the only channel I will not skip an add on. Make this channel profitable again!

[@yulaw5110]

Looking forward to this build, love a good wrenching series with Jake

[@fredharvey2720]

Take your time with the bike. It'll be a while after he gets back from doing time in Colorado. 😆

[@tattoomotorcyclefreak]

My current ninja, when I tore her apart after purchase, every other bolt was either stripped, over torqued, finger loose, or completely not there

[@slyfox_explores]

I tend to put off certain work on my bike and watching this is literally snapping me into shape xD

[@foamer5490]

Gotta love finding standard hardware on metric bikes. Always tells a little story on its own.

[@nefariousnz]

As someone returning to the bike scene after 8years I was thinking damn this is a great watch, who is this chap? Jake theGardenSnake! no wonder! I used to follow you back when I had a bike, great to seen your still making fantastic content! instant re-sub.

[@MrGhostVortex]

Alright I 100% support a Jake bike rebuild series....this is freaking nice!!

[@the_dog_house5463]

you should try the frozen tank trick to get the dent out! Fill it to the brim with water and freeze it, the displacement of ice can sometimes pop out the dent to original. I’ve tried it a few times on Harley tanks and Honda tanks it could work!

[@BlueRage]

You'll get it back together and he'll blow the engine. You already know this Jake.

[@EdTrollington]

I keep rewatching this video. Incredible. I had no idea this bike was that clapped. Can't believe he was ripping on this thing like that. This bike is damn near a complete tear down, except for the engine and trans.

[@Spartan375X]

This was almost a reciting of "What's This" from Nightmare Before Christmas.

[@mechanicalcanvas]

Reminds me of one of the last Buells I picked up. Rear motor mounts was cracked in half in two places (how?!), rear shock was cut on purpose by the owner to lower it but never put back together right so it just fell apart when the tension was released. All the electrical was just twisted together and taped. Forks were leaking and caps mangled for some reason. Exhaust can was missing its mounting bolts (huge no, no on Buells as you'll almost instantly crack the headers) plus a lot more. Some people shouldn't work on bikes. Worst thing was I asked the guy if it was ok to ride home 2 hours before I showed up and he was like "Ya! Its great" Glad I ended up bringing the truck instead.

[@Camera1931-p5v]

Great content! Nice to see bros working together!

[@deathwing491]

Yay this will be amazing to watch during work!

[@wildwilco]

8:00 originally the breather would go through some wizardry and back into the intake... but right now hes just put a filter on it and all the engine stuff thats supposed to be burned is now getting flung allover the engine... poor GSXR

[@gageneisius8034]

This is my first video of yours and I’m just now getting into bikes but I’m glad to see there’s bike people with sketchy shitboxes like me

[@OhioGuy82]

Excited to see this. Bring it back to it’s former glory.

[@linksgarage1985]

Man, a solid upgrade for the brakes is a 04-06 R1 brembo master and the sumitomo monoblocks. Just did this on my K5.

[@Cyan25]

been waiting good for this series to start. cant wait :)

[@wehttam2492]

Seeing the state of this bike, I believe that gixxerbrah actually sends this at the speed he does.

Dude, I'm not even a "bike-guy", I'm here because of my friend! And yet this video has me wanting more...

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

8:15 Ghetto air box mod done wrong. Stunt riders often do this TO PREVENT this mess (and prevent oil being sucked into the carb/tb's), the way hes done it seems to perpetuate the mess.

[@bigfootgarage2201]

I can’t wait to see Jake make this thing nice

[@NANA-lq5md]

Its crazy he rode THAT bike THAT fast. I didn't ride like him but i always took my bike to get fixed by qualified people.

going to be interesting to see the whole process of you just fixing some junk. keep up the great work cheers.

[@WheelieWeasel]

Most people in the comments are like "Average gsxr owner" yeah no kidding, gsxr riders actually ride the wheels off their bikes. Although they're cobbled up 90% of the time
