  • I finally completed the CB500 race bike build just a handful of days before my first race outing on the bike.
    In this video you'll see it finally transform into it's final state along with what it took me to get there.

    Overall this bike cost me just under £2000 including buying the original bike for £700. I kept costs low by buying most things used (used items marked with a *)
    Some of the costs were;
    Spare wheels - £150.00 *
    Wet tyres- £140.00 *
    Downpipes - £90.00 *
    Hagon shocks - £80.00 *
    Front disc - £80.00
    Coolant pipes - £65.00
    Dry tyres - £55.00 *
    Replacement front brake caliper - £50.00 *
    Race seat unit - £50.00 *
    Racing rearsets - £40.00 *
    Belly pan - £37.00
    Tank grips - £27.50
    Brake caliper rebuild kit - £25.99
    Front number board bracket £25.00
    Straight bars £21.00
    Race fuel cap - £20.00 *
    Engine case savers - £16.00
    Number board - £15.00 *
    Exhaust - £10.00 *
    link pipe £14.99
    This is not an exhaustive list but gives you a good idea what it takes to build a race bike I hope

    I'm pleased to see you've upgraded from the floor to a pallet. Are you getting more pallets as your channel grows?
    Great start to that Brands novice race.

      😂 Yeah slow progress eh? That certainly could have happened but I don't have the garage any more! Was a scalable option at least
      Cheers! I had some great racing there. Rewatching the race footage got me itching for me!

    I think I almost made a cameo there when you were stripping it at Brands lol. I thought you did really well for your first race. 😎👍

      Glad you did Nick! Pretty well remembered! I'd need to check myself but I'm sure top 15 on the road and top 5 in class in one of the races 😁

    where did you find the list of components that needed to be lock wired?

    • @ILikeMotorbikes
      @ILikeMotorbikes  Před rokem +1

      It was in the Thundersport 500 regulations - each club should mention in their regulations for each class what needs to be lock wired but usually it's a minimum of;
      Oil filter
      Oil sump plug
      Oil filler plug
