From Resoration to ROAD RACE - CBR400RR NC29

I didn't plan on using this barn find for an isle of man road race, but it was eligible and it got an entry... the only problem was it had been abandoned for so long and was in no state to ride let alone race. Did I mention I didn't even know if it ran?
All of this sounds like it might have been a bit much for a two month turn around - and if that was all we were up against then it might've been fine. But it wasn't...

[@user-hg3fd9bd1u]

[@zoebool5295]

Nice bit of easy start 👌🤟so I see ya a pro at random wires … might have a winter job for u 😂😂

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

I am a bit handy with the electro spaghetti 😁

[@corneliusnubston]

bloody hell youtube algo actually pushed one of your videos for me ive been subbed for 3+ years and i think this is the first time its actively pushed something

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

No way, that’s crazy 😆

[@corneliusnubston]

@@UnrestrictedIsle although considering i have autism plus i do watch alot of long form content so it maybe because it was like an hour and KZbin decide oh yeah you sub to this guy dont you haha ahh the algo reveals it self in funny ways sometimes haha

[@petersykes8891]

Hey boy from messing around at jurby and the early days of your channel things have definitely progressed. Not see a post for a long time but this was definitely worth the watch. Keep it up 🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲👍

[@tooold4917]

Super good video💪

[@Dave_Kneen]

Cracking video 👍

[@MechanicMindset]

Great watch! Thanks for taking the time. Just getting in to track riding here, ACU next month. 😅 PS, what are your plans for the E30??

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

@@MechanicMindset ooo exciting! No better thrill than a grid start 😁 It’s being revived after sitting for a few years, pretty close to being sent out for paint! 325 too 🔥

[@stepheny6321]

The best 55 minutes , 56 seconds on KZbin

[@leeastle2287]

Love the video…. Hope there’s a southern 100 vid 👍

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

Planning on there being one - hopefully it’ll have more onboards and less mishaps 😆

[@MrMpaclassics]

Nice one Blake, loved the sound of the crunchy fuel line 😂 well shot and edited and a great result for a £200 bike

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

It was a satisfying snap 😁 Glad you enjoyed it

[@Screamifyoumeanit]

My NC23 ended up frustrating the hell out of me with starting issues? It's been sat in the poly tunnel for years now, perhaps I'll drag it out again and give it some more love.

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

Do it 😁 I’d bet on the carbs playing a part in the issue (I have no love for carbs)

[@Screamifyoumeanit]

@@UnrestrictedIsle Me and carbs don't get on either! The bike just seemed to be such an arse to work on because everything is so tight in the frame. Had other projects to focus/ spend money on... i.e track prep/ retro mod the 96 SRAD, that ended in tears! and now getting the 91 ZZR600 D1 back on the road ready for a tour of Ireland. Great vid... New subscriber.👍✌

[@franklinwilkerson2061]

It does not get more grassroots racing than this! Nicely done.

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

Powered by the love of the sport 😁

[@jamesstanding3364]

Looking forward to this one 😊

[@motorcyclegarage2307]

Great job, Engine sounds the business. I used to marshal at Iron Gate.

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

Bet that’s a cracking spot to watch from!

[@GButs_]

Great watch! Out of interest, once you had bought the bike what was the cost of getting it ready for the test day at Jurby? I’d like to take on a similar project but I was wondering how deep my pockets need to be 😂

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

[@mikeplumridge3831]

I had one of these cbr400 but think it was the earlyer one and im 6,1 tall i managed to get a john mcguniess type screen tall one from power bronze i think

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

I’ll have a look into those 😁

[@waynetaylor7285]

JAWSOME !!

[@davidmale4880]

Great video and the r6 looked good on track yesterday aswell, please may I ask where you got the spray from on island?

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

Thankyou 😁 It’s from Motaworld, 2K in a can that’s mixed to whatever colour you need - so no clear coat needed. Once you pull the pin in the can it’s got a couple of days to be used or it’ll go solid… which is why the helmet got painted, the Jerry cans got painted and there’s some left from the R6 so the generator is in for it 😆

[@davidmale4880]

@@UnrestrictedIsle thank you I’m after a couple of kawasaki green for my new fairings, the kids came up with me yesterday and it was their favourite bike. Cant wait to watch you go round billown for the Southen

[@UnrestrictedIsle]

@@davidmale4880 I’ve used Kawasaki 777 green from Motaworld - it’s good stuff 😁 Not long to go now!

[@stevenmarry212]

Blake what quick releases did you use on the fuel and where did you get them? Thanks
