NEVER HAVE I CLICKED FASTER! I'm in like flynn, take me to awesome town! ive wanted to see you guys do something like this for a while now. more bike videos please.

[@MrLunithy]

Haven't heard that in like flynn since I left Alice..... lol

[@MrCarGuy]

I was hoping you'd cover this eventually. Motorcycles are such a great hobby.

[@thevinmeister5015]

Seriously

[@befer]

That's literally what they started with what are you talking about. Their whole BRAND was Churchill customs wtf

[@BilgemasterBill]

I totally agree. Their ADVChina and old Churchill customs renown should make custom "curated" modified Chinese bikes a natural segue now that they're here in the States. I'm sure lots of folks over here might wanna buy one if they were just "beefy" enough for occasional highway use--say 400cc or more.

[@stevec9669]

Happy to see a bike video here every now and then.

[@yeticusrex1661]

Ahhh....I get it now....after seeing the colors on "C-Milk's" motorcycle, his name is short for Chocolate Milk.

[@KA-vs7nl]

Condensed milk

[@ohno8589]

Clear Milk

[@jdman141]

These guys are correct, it's for condensed milk. A Winston joke as I recall from Matt's wedding.

[@mikebrennan7045]

Cows milk

[@yeticusrex1661]

Actually, I knew it was condensed milk...I was making a joke seeing that his seat on his motorcycle was chocolate colored.

[@WalterWhite-gw3vm]

Man watching this makes me think back when I helped my uncle rebuild his buddy's 1992 Harley Fatboy 17yrs ago. It took us around 4 months to complete it and that was the 1st and only Harley I ever ridden, car's are my thing

[@zaxarispetixos8728]

I actually have a whole build series on my '96 GN125, where I "bolt stuff on" (for the most part, lol). They're just so cheap / reliable, and It's been an awesome time learning the ins and outs. Totally love this build - thing looks sweet!!💪🏍️

[@juststeve5542]

Yay! Bike! Winston's cheap bike challenge from all those years ago is part of the reason why I have a GS250 in 1000 bits in my garage right now! 40 year old JIS machine screws really don't like coming undone! (I should have got a GN, parts are so much easier to find! lol!). The other reason is my VTR1000 is worse on fuel getting me to work than my car! LOL! It'll be on the road this year, honest!

[@waylmaster7487]

I actually built my first "motorbike" about a month ago. I bought a cheap Chinese 49cc 4 stroke bike kit and outfitted an old used mountain bike. I'm only 15 so no license or nothing so this is good for now. It does about 50+ Kmph so thats more than enough for cruising Toronto. Best thing is, it cost me under 400 bucks. We all gotta start somewhere! These vids are really inspiring and I love your content. STAY AWESOME!

[@maxhen1132]

Maaan that original colours are beautiful😢😢

[@natelan69420]

I think this is now my favorite channel from you both. Love all your content but have really been diggin' Worthless Whips lately.

[@chrispetersen3151]

Yeah, Bruh !! I had a GN400 back in say...87 that I got for $400. Black on black like your 125. I was looking for an SR500 Yamaha, but they were all over $1000.. That little Suzuki was a 5 speed thumper, with a top speed of like 80. But it was what I needed at the time to really gain confidence as a rider, I was just a kid.. That's the bike I rode when mastered wheelies around corners, going up stairs, kicking over bikes without using the compression release, etc. It was a good solid bike. If it only had one more gear...

[@williamswenson5315]

The bikes you rode in your documentaries each had such a simple, but classy style about them. Minimalist and clean, they appeared graceful even in repose. Who knows? Perhaps you should copywrite "Churchill Motors" along with the logo and file it under future projects.

[@MatthiasAI]

This was actually amazing to watch... I never liked bikes before but the amount of tinkering you can do has made me interested.

[@ayedee6681]

time to bring this channel back WINSTON!

[@marshallkaufman3123]

im am 19 from canada i got a yamaha blaster atv and fabricated a cg125 motor into the frame ! its a little ripper. i got the quad for free and you can get the engine for literally like 200 dollars and they are super reliable. my other build im doing is a dt50lc engine into a mini moto dirt bike it's pretty much all done atm. cheers!

[@wannaseethevid]

It is recommended when you take your front wheel off to place a bit of a spacer between the pads to ensure the caliper doesn't close up. I usually just place an allen/hex key between them to keep them open. I here tell that if you didn't it is possible to accidently knock your front brake and squeeze them in, it is even possible to actually (say someone pulled the front brake on for instance) push the brake piston passed its seal) and then DOH!!!!!! so place a simple wedge in between to save a lot of hassle.. Just my 2 cents.

[@zeze3305]

Crazy this pops up as i have been wanting to get into bikes.

[@rwiersema]

What I usually do is just take the 2 bolts out of the caliper and fit that when the wheel is on. That way you're not trying to make 5 things fit at once (especially with dual front discs)

[@ahmedp800]

Wow that transformed the bike entirely! Loving your videos, please do more :)

[@BryceByerley]

great looking bike. I wish I had this video back in my 20s.

Where is his channel

[@lyndonbull3581]

Good to see you guys doing some bike stuff again at long last. I love the muscle car stuff, but being an ardent biker and coming from the UK I am not so interested in owning one. I currently work in the Middle East and my future wife is a Chinese woman, so I am always interested in your videos.

[@SDreamchaser]

I’ve been wanting one of these bikes forever!

[@pikethree]

Thanks guys! Now I'm searching for a 125cc bike on eBay as a suitable project. Little did I know my wishlist of 1: a K1200RS or 2: a slightly used Hayabusa wasn't going to be enough! Now I need a teeny tiny project to make me happy. Thanks 🙂👍 I already have GSX600F and a GSX750F starter projects....

Man this is so cool I this channel, had no idea you gad this, keep it awesome!

[@Ssmetalslime]

There are some videos of this Peruvian kid working on gn125s, and does a "brat style" mod that has super similar to your design. You should check it out, he welds a custom seat support with a led strip and it looks awesome. I appreciate the way you frame your serpentza videos with the vcr tape intro/outro (nogistalgia factor), it's the little things. Your fathers stories are awesome. You do work that saves lives and is helping save this country. From east central Missouri, Stay Awesome we love you guys here, I am helping share your channel(s) and message for years now. Hi cmilk, love you guys, first saw C.S.C. in 2017.

[@LuisPipoComunica]

[@Evilpricetag]

This video will teach me how to be a really cool dude.

[@tomster7574]

I got an old bike like yours. An ‘80 yamaha 400, the only thing i customized was the handle bars, a bit lower so i lean into the wind instead of being a drag cute sitting straight up. Rear Shock extensions would have been nice if i could have found some to lower it a bit. I like the seats the way they are as its like riding on the frame, for a short guy like myself it makes waiting at a light much easier having a seat instead of bars to straddle. To each their own tho, i like all the things you took off for their function. Especially the lights, ive come up on so many of these customed bikes that i couldnt see their signals and almost ran them down cuz of it.

[@andymehrer457]

lol i love you guys but it is funny that i live in the high rockies and yesterday was this first nice day i felt i could brave a ride with out freezing my butt off and you guys have more weather protection than i did just tooling in the garage in socal. IM AM LOVING THE BIKE STUFF THOUGH! you guys could do touring in america on motorcycles and kill it. more than muscle cars i would think. With the stuff you guys have been through in china on street bikes some fire roads and cool towns would be a breeze for you. keep up the good work!

[@ronerie]

Great job on this video ! I just happened to be doing a search for Custom Scrambler builds for the 250 cc Suzuki's and came across yours ! Looking for fender ideas, as I don't like the look of ANY bike without a rear fender, and this video is like, easy, relatively low cost, bike customizing 101, lol !!!!! Great idea for both fenders, and Gave me more ideas !!! Thanks !!!

[@CA5H3W]

I really like the bike stuff, doing a custom bike build is also really good cause you can watch the transformation in an episode or two, you could make cool custom bikes make media on them, then sell or auction them, they're cool, unique, simple and not too expensive, and they would have story behind them... I think you could sell them
