- The final installment of my journey to restore the 1992 CBR900RR N SC28 to her former glory. From the painting process to assembly, spit, polish... and of course having some fun getting a final photo-shoot of her under the full moon. No jokes, the cayotes were going crazy.
I've also finally managed to get my grubby little paws on an RC51, look out... the sneaky beast might make an appearance after all.

Yes.... I mean just yes, yes, yes ..... Consider my cap doffed in your general direction sir. The details are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Much obliged sir! Stay tuned for more magical, mechanical monkey beeswax.
WELL DONE U DID A GREAT JOB THAT MODEL BLACK AND GREY FIREBLADE IS THE NICEST ONE. COOL LOOKING MACHINE IN BLACK👍
Thanks Patrick, appreciate the feedback! I just can't stop staring at the thing to be honest...
I think I have committed at least 15 of the 7 deadly sins, watching this. Auuuugh, soooo beautiful! And the VF1000R, Interceptor, RC51...sigh. Props to you man!
Thanks bud! Just make sure you don't run out of the last two of your 9 lives and you'll be rockin!
AWESOME !!!!!
The states never received that paint scheme that’s a shame it’s so classic Honda. You can see all the hard work you put into it. It’s absolutely beautiful.
Thanks! Yeah, we were lucky to get the ‘92 up in Canada... I can’t imagine the bike anything but black / silver.
Yeah first year down here 93. I’ve been doing a lot of the white blue and red ones. There really picking up in popularity.
perfection! I had the same model in the same colour and loved it so much! Thank you for restoring it back to its former glory!
Awesome man! All time favorite for sure...
Just caught up with your video on the awesome fireblade. Superb job.
Thanks man, working on some more stuffs as we speak!
Hi, you're a killer !!!!!!!!!!!!
Great, great job. I didn't think the bike I bought was so ugly.
But now it's like OEM with a little dust spot for originality (like Cindy :-) )
Thanks bud! She's one of a kind ;p
Man! You do Amazing work! I have a 93’ in the black/red/silver scheme. I have neither the patience nor skill level you have achieved. You sir, are the Honda Super Bike Master…. Truly amazing!
Thanks man! I do enjoy a bit of messing around with them bikes ;)
Bloody well done. Just picking up a mint 99 myself from Ontario to AB. Should be getting it by next week!
Awesome like the sauce!
Honda sure made some sexy ass bikes back in the day. Rc51, cbr 929, 954 fireblades were way before their time.
You know it man!
Subscribed 👍🏻 Make sure you share this on the 900RR pages on FB, they’ll love it
Awesome sauce, done & done
Fantastic job rebuilding that bike and maybe even better job with the editing 😂. I have a white/red/purple '93 sc28 i love dearly.
Thanks bubba! A labour of love for sure. Not that I’ll ever find one but if I see a white one… I’ll probably have to sell a kidney
Great Restoration , well done . An now an RC51 , fantastic .
Thanks Gary, appreciate it! Managed to finally get the RC51 last week... almost wish there were more things to fix on it ;p
Amazing work. Looks perfect.
Thanks man! I need a new project by the looks of things...
What a beauty... My man I wish I could piece together a 1st gen CBR.
Thanks dude! They’re getting harder to find but they’re out there!
Top job 👏👏👏
Great York, congratulations!!!
Work
Thank you! (Wou) ;p
Good job
Thank you sir!
I like your videos! You're precise and prudent! Amazing work! Gratulation!
Thanks dude, appreciate it!
Very well done
Thanks, always good to save these classics!
Great video love the editing
Thanks dude!
Brilliant restoration well done.
Thank you sir!
From one Honda rider to another, Loved it.
Thanks man, appreciate it! I just stepped into the garage for a scotch with my animals & saw your post.
Holy fck!! Shes peeeerfect!!
Absolutely fantastic.. I am in the process of restoring back to as close to new my ‘99 SC33.. I managed to find some oh so difficult to find oe fairing panels that haven’t been cracked, plastic welded, badly sprayed, scratched or covered in dubious stickers.. Literally also just bought some oe Honda bar grips too.. that win feeling👌🏼
Love your VF1000R too.. I had a VF400F & VF500FII back in the day.. V4 power
Thanks man! I’ve been trying to find a sc33 the last couple months but no dice... enjoy the resto!
@@counter-steersc28 vs sc33, whats our thoughts 😃 looks, tech, comf etc
I’ve never had the pleasure of a sc33 but from what I know there’s a lot of overlap.
Beautiful restoration! Just finished restoring my VTR1000 SP-1. On the look-out for a first year FireBlade now, i have a black/grey 1992 in the scope, its done 65000km and could use some TLC. These are such classics now, so i should pull the trigger really ;)
Thanks Frank! Yeah the first gen Fireblades are in a league of their own. If you’ve managed to find one, scoop it up quick!
Say... that’s a nice bike...
Hehe, nice... Terminator 2!
No words to say simple beautiful
Thanks dude!
New bikes with all their tech, all their power and all their speed, can't complete with the daddy of them all.
You know it! When I just got this bike it felt much faster than some technically faster bikes I’ve had. Thing blew my brains right out!
COOL
😍
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Damn!
4 dislikes are only jealous
My dream bike is the 1998 model
One day :)
Rock on! Don’t wait too long…
Wuaaaaaau!!! Sorprendente trabajo, no logro entender como llegue a este video, quiza sea el amor que le tengo a las HONDA, que buenos efectos de video. Espero y entiendas mi comentario ya que no se escribir en ingles. Admiro mucho tu trabajo, y seria genial que si pudieras decirme que programa usas para editar tus videos.
👌👌👌
wow!!!
Thanks dude, was a fun build!
Did you end up rebuilding the rear shock or just replacing it? I've been looking for resources on rebuilding the rear shock for my sc28 and haven't had a lot of luck finding any
Hey Kevin. The rear shock’s just about the only thing that didn’t need fixing... have you tried CMSNL for parts?
Love it ❤ I also have black RR-N which I'm getting back to original. It's already almost 100k km driven but still technically in good condition. It's fairings also need new decals and those look really good, couldn't find H to the O with google, could you point me to the correct direction?
Awesome sauce! Stick this in ebay and it should show up “CBR 900RR Fireblade 1992 full decals set sc28 stickers graphics 893 pattern logo” It’s a guy in Bulgaria. Note that these don’t have the same shading as the OEM decals, only solid color.
The guy from Bulgaria is the best!
you clear coated the decals? would you do that again or just buy gloss decals instead (if available)
When working without OEM decals I prefer to clearcoat... you don't want non weather resistant vinyl (especially if printed on) exposed to the elements. I used to spray bikes for a living in the late 90's and always used to clear the hell out of everything so didn't give it a second thought.
The trilogy impressed me! Such skillful editing and even better mechanical work. The SC28 is soooo beautiful. I wish I had the skills, time and money to do the same. I only have the RC36/1. I am sure you have been asked this question many times before, but how much money did you sink into that Honda? Again, its beeeeaaaautiiiful! I will watch the RC51 video now. Greetings from Berlin!
Thanks Chriss, appreciate it! I refuse to count the money (and time) spent on my bikes, I’m pretty sure that would take the fun out of it ;) A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do, you only live once & besides, I’ll never sell it.
I love the 1st gen RC36, great bikes… maybe one day. Need more space!
Say “hi” to Berlin for me, I haven’t been there in 20 years but have fond memories as a kid. Hmmmm the smell of auspuff ;)
@@counter-steer hahaha! The smell of Auspuff :-D And I thought that you can smell burned gas anywhere else in the world. Well. Berlin IS a special place! HAHA! Maybe you are right. Counting money and time does take the fun out of it. I might just have to convince my wife to let me buy a SC28. Greetings from Berlin again :-))
Nice video's and awesome work on the motorbikes, personally i like the fireblades a lot 🙂... question how high is your work ramp/bench ? I'm gonna make also one.
Thanks! My bench is about 18” off the ground. Not much but it makes ALL the difference in the world. Plus you can store parts underneath in bins!
@@counter-steer thanks, i’m going to make something like it. And like you mention. Storage is always important. Already 5 bikes cosy next to eachother 😆😄. Always looking forward to new video’s. 👍
@@PDC110477 Thanks Pedro! Videos are on hold until I’m in my new space… before Christmas I hope!
stunningly beautiful! BTW, whats the last track played in this video? thanks!
Thanks man, the song's called "Sport Punk Rock by UnlimitedSounds"... purchased on Audio Jungle.
Where did you get the sticker set? I have a 1995 that i have been wanting to restore, but don’t know where to get the original stickers! Thanks
Hey Thomas, I got it from a guy in Bulgaria that sells 'em on Ebay. He's got full sets for each year and color scheme, SC28 and SC33. Stick "Honda CBR 900RR Fireblade decals set sc28" in ebay and it'll come up.
Man, I have a 98' 919. The bike has loads of potential and runs like a beast. Wish I had the skills or either the $$ to get mine redone. How much would a restore run. By the way... Monumental job, bro. You gotta live it to get those results.
Exacto Mundo dude... labour of love. 919 should be much cheaper to rebuild with parts more easily available. Can't really say I like to keep track of the $100 dollar bills I had to smoke to get her shiny again, that would make it much less fun. More than the bike cost me to buy, that's for sure.
Man, thank you for your reply. I really want to do the rebuild myself but I have never done this before. You are inspiring , bro. If I send pics of the bike, can you at least give me some pointers. Where do you live and how can I contact you.
@@adriandennard7480 Sure thing dude, put your email in here and I'll shoot you a mail and delete the comment.
Did the engine need no TLC? It was fine and still had many miles left? Thanks.
Thinking of taking on one of these labors of love myself. Just concerned about the motor I might get with the bike.
Hey man, engine’s rock solid... not as lively with the stock exhaust & jetting unfortunately but still kicks like a rabbid mule.
@@counter-steer Right on man! Thanks for getting back to me.
Love what you did with the 900. I'm restoring one was well. Any chance we could connect? I've got some questions on products and materials you used.
Hey Josh, sure thing... ask away!
@@counter-steer what hi temp paint did you use on pipe and header?
I ended up using VHT... but even after all those coats I’m still not happy with it. Next time I’d powdercoat.
@@counter-steer thanks for the update. M motorcycles is going to do my paint. Plastics are in good shape and all original. I'll reach out once it's done. I've got an F2 from 93 in same red white blue. Matching set
Nice one, love the F2’s! If only I had more space...
My dad have this moto
A wise man for sure :)
Could you go for a SC44?
Hell’s yes! Same era as my RC51... I’ve only heard good things about the 929 but I’ve never had the pleasure!
@@counter-steer I have one, great bike, easy and reliable :)
Wonderful resto but I watched all three on mute because of the atrocious "music"........feck me it made my ears bleed!
I don’t get it ? you do all that work then you take your bike for a ride with a $3 dollar keychain flapping around and scratching the $300 triple clamp 🤦🏻♂️
More like a $5 keychain... with a leather back and gel-coated emblem on the other side. Learned not to put crap on my keychains when I was 13. That guns 'n roses metal scull sure was 'purdy though.
