Pro-Tip use a wire-mesh over your oil bucket to catch any bolts and screws you don't want them falling into dirty oil.
It was an SAE power cord, one went to a radar detector, and a shift light that he never hooked to an RPM signal. Some people also hook up small screens with a rear view camera to display so they don’t have to run mirrors.
This 👆.... this is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
@@RKMotorsports That particular cord is for heated riding gear. I ran the same stuff when i commuted on my bike. The jacket plugs in to the cord and the gloves plug into the jacket
yup camera set up

In our throwaway society it's very nice to see a machine restored to its former glory. Looking forward to seeing the final sale price
Putting the damage aside it looks like the dude cared for the bike quite well. It's really clean.
Just going to forget about the weedwacker line holding the entire tail back on the bike? 😂
Kawasaki brother ! How are you ? Thanks 🙏
@@CaptainCooter and one engine bolt missing and the other was too long.
@@tesseract2365 you have to order those bolts not easy to find around
@@chriscs9080 Could of just went to any hardware store and made something work with actual bolts , depending on what type of coated bolts you get they cost in the cents or by weight... Could of found something else that worked and looked better
You should do videos on how to find good bikes for good price to fix
Love how you go through and price everything out afterwards. And you are meticulous which is awesome! Keep up the videos you got yourself a new subscriber. Thank you!
By far this is the best video I have ever seen about rebuilding a damaged bike.
You were very thorough and gave us the exact information we needed like how many hours and the cost of the parts.
Keep up the good work and Iike to see more of your videos.
"Informative videos" always a fan of builds, love seeing you get your job done appreciate all the time and hardwork
You did one of the best motorcycle rebuild video I ever seen on CZcams so 👍🏾 to you man
Your work is extremely meticulous, I love watching these builds! You got a great deal on this one, a few snags but you masted it as always. Always enjoy your videos, I’m definitely excited to see your channel/ business grow!
Thank you! Each bike has it's own surprises and hidden damages once I start taking them apart, but that is what adds to the uniqueness of rebuilding each one!
I love when you do the "what it cost you" after. Gives me hope so I can start doing this too.
nice vid, great detail and explanations, always guessed at what kinda of work it would take to do something like this, but you took the guess out of it and just put in the work!
Great job, also loved the breakdown at the end.
Recently been looking for a bike that was in a small accident to fix up and I came across your channel. Instant sub. Great informative content. Looking forward to more videos!!
Thanks Joshua! Good luck on your search! They are out there!
I've got one,you got yourself a steal mate and I've have had a oil leak on the stator cover.
Feels so good watching an old bike get into its brand new-like condition, sooo satisfying!
New fan here. I don't have a bike except for a bicycle. Since I can't afford these kinds of bikes, watching this is an inspiration for me that I want to work harder and maybe someday I'll have one of my own. Even that someday is somewhat impossible. Thank you for the know-hows. I'll be checking more of your videos. Ride safe brother!
Love your work man, every video is better from the next I swear 😂
Love the Content!!watching you rebuild bikes is like a therapy!!
Great stuff with the CBR rebuild as well!!
You earned a Subscriber!!
Love from India🇮🇳
Thanks for the effort (especially liked the technique you used to remove that broken bolt), good luck brother.
Congratulations for the beautiful work, it gives an impression that amuses with the bikes. Following the channel here in Brazil. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
First time watching your videos. Holy crap this was awesome! I've got so much more videos to binge now!
Same
I wish i had a mechanic like you here in italy
Awesome videos! I have learned a lot watching your videos. I have been working on slowly for the past 2 years on a 1999 Suzuki SV650 with under 10,000 miles on it.
and i noticed that you are very honest with the build sir... thanks....
FYI - that oil filter which gave you a hard time - it was one from K&N which has a hex head on top of it which is meant to be used for extraction of the filter by a ratchet or a wrench ;-)
Heh heh ... a hex head ... but, who has a racthet? Gota love K&N and all the other cool manufacturers that either hex head, or reverse so a socket extension fits! I hate shops that put them on so tight!
He knew that and probably stripped that 1st
Yeah but they usually shear straight off 😂
Nice video of the rebuilt. I prefer the bike in blue, but that is personal taste :).
Keep it going 👍🏻
Thank you! I wish I could have saved the blue fairings since thats my favorite color, but because they were damaged I just went with a new set
For stuck oil filters just stick a screwdriver right through it and use it to lever on , your going to replace it anyway .
I really enjoyed the video tours but it was more enjoyable to see the bike with a new look because this bike is my favorite among bikes
I cant even find Chinese scooters for £600 ($700ish) in the UK!
You need to look for to look for the broken stolen recovered models at police auctions lol
Join biker bay on facebook pal loads on there
@@chrismcginty3687 thanks man :)
I second the stolen recovered/salvage auctions. You'd be surprised with how cheap they go. There isn't as much demand as cars and you can pick up a bargain at the right time.

eyy fellow pinoy
Thank you Alryan! I truly appreciate the support and motivation!

Damn you are one talented guy. I can’t stop watching ur videos Sir!! PLZ Keep those rebuild coming. God bless
Love watching your videos bro if I had space where I lived id be buying bikes and fixing them up just like you. Keep the channel going !!!
That cable is for a slow charger like an optimate. It's wired to the battery so you can trickle charge it as and when required without having to removed seat/ battery etc.
Damn, wish I had a friend like you, would sure make my riding life easier! 😎
He has a magic parts box 😎
i also got a motorcycle, had 2 1980 yamaha xs650 because i wanted an old bike, had to sadly sell them since my dad said no, moved out, purchased a 1977 kawasaki kz650, and man, this project is what im lovin, just finished the electronics, working on the oil, getting new gaskets for everything, break lines, valves, forks and everything. sat for 10 years between 2 rotting trailers not running, no gas, no rust in the 2 gas tanks i got. its by far gonna be a fun winter project for me personally. the 2 yamaha xs650 were to easy with carb cleans, and i just wasnt attached to it as much as i am attached to this kz650.
Finally!! someone who knows the value of an impact driver for disassembly!
You need a bench!! It is so easy to accidentally stand on a part or piece of fairing and the resulting damage can be very costly. Also, consider investing in a hydraulic ramp - they save all that bending down (your back will thank you when you get older) and makes working on bikes so much more enjoyable. Having said that, a great job and I always enjoy your videos.
Ya what GM said,,,,nice little side Hustle you got going on as well
robbie k never misses. great vid man loving the constant content
Thanks brother! Gotta stay consistent!
Your videos are so much fun to watch and makes me want to start fixing and flipping Motorcycles as well. You would be surprised by how cheap you can get a used not working or broken motorcycle scooter for. I bought a Tao Tao scooter for $50 not running been sitting up for years and all it needed was a new Carb and battery..
Awesome... best bike channel. Just bought a 07 flip r6. Needs battery... tank side panels... and service.
Man if I could get a used R6 for $600 😔 You can't get a beat up 125 scooter for that much where I live.
Just bought an 05 r6 last week for $500 it even runs flawlessly... man...
@@jampakdd Where did u get that from? 👀
@@gustavodomingues6929 Nice guy who clearly didn't know anything about bikes and hadn't run it in years... all it really needed was a back wheel, a new battery, and the exhaust plugged. (it was cracked in half)
Lol in my country, an H2 costs $80,000, and A brand new Cbr600rr costs $55,000 if converted to USD
@@kenjikunuwu3644 Suffer I guess...
those bolts missing on the engine is probaly from the frame slider :)
I wonder if I was alone with "That's a frame slider bolt you idiot!" LOL But love the videos. I do not agree with that replacement bolt.. How ghetto! Might as well put the fishing line back...
Yeah thats what I was figuring, I have seen it a ton in the past where either the longer bolts are left in there or the bolts are completely removed.
Just getting ready to type the same!
@@RKMotorsports I love this Yamaha r6 I would love a deal like that I wouldn't mind buying something like that for $600 I'd atleast trade the stock parts for stunt parts anyway I'll be following you on instagram looking forward to your comment I live in Florida
@@StrawDragon p9l)]⁹
love to see that you finished it in no time :))
12:50 It's kind of risky putting thread locker that way, it can break the cover by hydro lock
I like how he stacks his water bottles on the stand like "man, these repairs are something, so we gotta be hydrated"
A true Hydro Homie.
YOU ARE EXCELLENT IN REBUILDING BIGBIKE SIR.... WOOOOWWW!!! I WISH I WILL JAVE A BIKE LIKE THIS... YOU ARE VERY BRILLIANT AND SKILLFUL OF THIS JOB SIR... WATCHING HERE IN CEBU, PHILIPPINES..
Wow, are you actually a bike mechanic or where does all of that knowledge come from? I just stumbled across your channel and I just freaking love it!!!
I thought those wires might have been for a electric jacket for cold weather.
Was my first track bike, those bikes are underrated IMO
Got an 05 R6 as my first bike 6 months ago and love it. Thought I was gonna end up selling it n buying an r1 but im definitely keeping it
yep, still why i have mine
Amazing work Sir, and what a beautiful bike you have, Congrats :-)
Dude you have OCD. I need a mechanic like you !!! The pain you went through to replace glass cover on gauge and all. Hats off to you 🤤
I wish to have this kind of bike.. hahahaha Its cool bike 😍
I believe the cable loom you remove are laser jammer cables. And if I am not mistaken, the control unit is still in the bike under rear seat cowl.

love this man, so much good info from watching this
you got so lucky with that blue broken screw! I was so tense until it came out
you did really good job, and I'm planning to buy a 03-05 R6 this summer ❤️🔥
Thank you! And good choice! They are great bikes!
keep going i love watching your videos, and I'm learning lot of things
I'm glad you guys like the R6s I just got an 08 r6 for my first bike I'm getting some hate saying it's a horrible first bike but I'm a responsible rider and I respect the bike I don't mess around in it any advice would help love it and don't want to sell it
Nice. Some things that I think would take the work/output to the next level:
- Torque the bolts to spec
- Use loctite on the bolts
- Use standard bolts (the frame bolt)
- Wear disposable gloves
You forgot
-clean the bike before you start so you arent working on a filthy heap
-clean things as you go, instead of putting new fairings over dirty headers
- service the brake calipers, lube pivot points, copperslip bolts, try to make the bike better than you found it
I've had 2 of these. An 05 and an 09 R6s. Loved both of them. Great bike.
Glad to hear I just got a 08 r6 and I get alot of hate saying not a good first bike but I'm safe on it responsible rider what do you think any advice will help thanks 👍
I live it and don't want to sell it
Your so awesome, fr bruh, i love your videos and it inspire me a lot. God bless you always bro. keep safe!
Made me want to build my own bike even tho I don’t know much about it dope video
Oouuh.. my dream bike😍
But my wallet prefers to wake up rather than dream about it 😂🤣😭
Good afternoon from Indonesia 🇲🇨
Another good job done. You did great Bro. all the best always.
nice video,you do some good quality stuff mate so pleased i subscribed keep them coming and i will keep watching!!!!!!
Good to see you back here Ian! I'll keep the videos coming for sure!
Every one of the r6’s I have rebuild has had a crack in the gauge cluster case like yours 🤔
I don't even know how it happens but it's always on gauges even without damage
@@RKMotorsports maybe a R6 gauge ghost
You can always have a glass maker make a new piece for it so it doesnt crack again head the plastic up till the glue weakens pull the plastic out and carefully replace it with a glass piece
@Rk motorsport i think you reece a bike build off .
6:36 out with the boys on a pearly white
My man caught it! Lol that pic was from a few years ago. Good times lol
Also! wishes ahead for the channel to grow fast # road to mill is right up ahead
Watching this channel makes me wants to find a clear title wreck bike and restore them 😍
New sub here from Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 my dream bike 😍
Hahaha 44k lang hahaha awit
When you throw a bolt in, what torque setting do you generally apply?
common sense torque
Bro I can see your breath! Get a heater in there! Even a little diesel one will do lol. You should do some shop upgrades and organizing and let us watch! Love your videos and love your work. True craftsmanship sir 👌 any customer will know they are safe riding away on something you have worked on. Keep em coming sir! 👍😊
Pretty solid bike, I had a 2004 r6 as well, sometimes it tries to kill you but still a pretty awesome bikr
Even if you paid for the fairing kit and tank you would have a little less than $2000 into it.
the price of the bike after including the rebuild cost is cheaper than a ninja 250 in my country
that is 250cc, r6 ain't that shit low on cc
@@cy1480 you missed his point
The wire looks like a harness for under frame LED lights for night time visual effects in different color.
I'm a huge fan of your builds. Wish I can have my own bike too, but it's too expensive.. :( Huge fan from Philippines!
Where do you find all these bikes for such a low price ?
By the way, great vid man, keep it up
It's not what you know
Any time I hear "I only paid..." followed by "... my friend" I instantly get mad...
Lovin' the channel in Scotland, more vid's please!!
Your a beast bro, just watched the whole gsxr 600 from dust to pulling awesome torque!!
Thanks Levi! Appreciate the support 🙏
What was the point of the image? Took me a little while to pause one it.
Cant wait to get my SV650S rebuilt by you this summer.
He doing my 1000rr rn my son loves going there seeing the bikes all torn apart my garage is dirt toys robs is street toys lol
Rob is the bomb when it comes to restoring bikes, no capp
Yes i watch all video n look for my rr 😆
@@babybearjoe we get it bro you have a 1000rr 🤦♂️
Damn salty much
This guy has inspired me to by wrecked moto's and rebuild them coz it's so easy if your mechanically minded..
U r awesome ❤️ new subscriber.. Hw u make things look so easy.. Dealer mechanics would be like.. R u kidding me.... Hope we see 1m subs party soon.. Get motivated.. Watched 7 videos nd will watch all. 😂 Fan from. India 🇮🇳
A 636 at 6:36? Coincidence? I think not.
you stole that bike from him for that price lol
For broken bolts, get a pneumatic engraving pen. The high frequency vibes will absolutely roll out a broken fastener that hammer and punch doesn't touch.
I wish to learn rebuilding and have atleast a bike... I am really a huge fan of biker... I love watching you .. keep up.. thanks for the video
congratulations, lovely video and please keep going
I love your channel man. I watch these rebuilds EVERY day. And I've used a bunch of them to rebuild my Suzuki gsx600f katana. It was absolute junk when I bought it,only thing nice was it's fairings and motor. I hand rebuilt the entire bike and I owe all my knowledge too you. I really hope I become a bike mechanic this year,I've been working so hard at studying and learning it these past 6 years
Very good price for this r6, also great rebuild. In my country you can buy a scooter at that price or maybe a really bad wrecked bike
Beautiful work you do man.Im hooked on your channel.
22:00 that's a kit camera for bikes, usally the LCD is in the front near to clocks and the camera under tail light. that way we don't have the need to look to the mirrors on both sides to check the rear. The cam covers a 180 degree view.
omg i would love those grey colors for my bike lol. looks so good
Check ur bill of sale, small print, "this is a rental of $600, all modifications done while under rental will remain when bike is returned to owner"
nice work! greetings from Spain, ride safe!
Ugh, wish I could find something half as decent as this in my area. Nothing in my area less than $5K unfortunately. I thought finding a bike would be fairly easy, but it's been extremely difficult. Nice find!
Damn thats a steal right there. Wish i lived in a bigger city cause its impossible to find any bike under 2k that isnt completely thrashed and would cost more to fix than its worth.
I wish I could find deals like this!!! I miss having a bike so bad I regret selling my bike I thought I was making the right decision when I found out I was going to become a dad but as the years go by I can't justify selling it still lol
Great series man !!!! Love em
Huge fan frm India I want to work with you have a huge intrest in bike rebuilds and I do learn alot watching your videos alot, I have no engineering degree or something but just my intrest your determination and work hard realy helps me going
