This is PART 3 of the Cafe Racer hump build series.
I'm joining the hump to the seat base, You could also build this all in one piece if you want, I did it this way because I thought I would make it easier to release from the mould it 2 small parts than 1 big part.
I gave this a bit of body filler to finish it off and I also reinforced the hump to the seat pan later with fibreglass on the underside that I isn't shown in this video.

Fantastic idea to match the hump with the tank. Make sure the colour steam is matching.
Verry true :) Thank you for taking the time to comment John
Looking awesome! I think it looks pretty sweet as it stands, but then again even the tape lines give it a great effect. I vote you make a second hump/seat using the mold and have the option of swapping them :)
Thank you for the kind words :) Will do
Tapered lines: awesome idea, your made is brilliant!
I think your designer pal has nailed it - and although itâs a little hard to see the lines accurately on video, picking up the top of the hump may give it a slightly better line with the top of the tank? Excellent work, a pleasure to see things done properly!
Thank you for taking the time to leave me a comment, you are right, Its going to be hard to see on camera but worth the extra work I think :)
Nice work. I took my 750 in a different direction, but I appreciate the effort and skill shown.
Its a yay from me. Always one for trying things as you know!
Jish itâs amazing to see you pop up in my comments. Thank you brother đ, Im really looking forward to seeing the footage of you at the show :) itâs so cool that for the bold is going also. Trust me I did think about getting a flight over :)
Yay for the hump design đ
Thank you for your Videos. All the best
Yay on the seat designs
Thank you mate, I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up
Your a true teacher brođđ respect đ
Yes mate, matching the tank lines would look awesome. Great job on the vids once again.
Justin Lovejoy Iâm still yet to do this so stay tuned and I will be coming in a future video :)
Great idea on the hump. If nothing else you can use paint on the tank and top of hump to keep continuity on the lines. Great video man. You're killing it.
Hi Peter, Thank you mate :) Yes you are 100% right, paint can achieve this look too, Im definitely going to have a go at making this new design and take a mould from thishump so I can create a few more cool ideas, so keep an eye out for those videos coming up, I'm sure you wont miss them :)
Super awsome! Ive learned a lot. Thank you from the philippines!
Carlo anthony Reodique Morando always welcome my friend:)
Yay... That would make it look like it came from the factory that wayđ
thank you mate :) that is hopefully how it looks when its all finished :)
Definitely worth the time
yay on the tank/hump idea
I like the idea of the designer ! Think it would look pretty sweet đđ»
Thank you Ian, yes I think he is on to something and I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up so stay tuned :)
Yay, Bro; do it!!!
Yes definitely yay for the subtle additional hump. Make up your resin and put a little bit aside, add microsphere blend to the rest to thicken up the mix, paint on a some resin first then add on the resin paste to form the hump. Sand back and fill accordingly.
thats a great Idea, sounds like you have done this before?
Looks great as is but those lines would look fantastic. Yay
I have to agree with you Alan Its looks awesome now but I need to make it just to see how it looks :)
yeah the tail bit holding that line from the tank i think would look great
I think its a top idea, i want to make a scaled down version of the back of my tank for the hump ( R80) try using the plug , make a new hump and put two slits where you had tape , this will allow that gental rise nicely, re glass underneath and fill with bog . Good luck
That is a really good idea! it's kinda what I had in my head but not sure it will work yet, stay tuned because this is probably how I will do it :) Thank you for taking the time to comment Grant :)
Looks great Dan, I would definitely go with the idea of following the lines of the tank, it ties it all in and takes it to another level! Just needs to be real subtle mate!
I hear you loud and clear :) you are 100% right!
Hey man. The idea of running the tank lines back to the hump sounds class!! Would love to see how it turns out! đ
Thank you mate, I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up too :)
Yes, I meant the centre section of the seat hump between the blue lines to echo the shape of the tank. I started watching your channel at episode 25 so I'm playing catch up now. I love the way you present your videos.
neil allinson thank you Neil. Yeah now I understand đ
Donât worry Iâm sure you will catch up faster then it takes me to make them. Lol itâs a long process shooting and editing but itâs worth it and I love doing it
Great video as per usualđđœ. I think the line idea would suit it better in my opinion. Keep it up đđœ
Thank you Charlie :) you are 100% right, I will do the new design and even a few other changes on a different hump :)
Do it mate, it would look awesome. And if you don't your going to wish you had and end up doing later on I reckon. Great vid
So true, Yes I will do it! great comment by the way
Looks amazing. A yay for me
Thank you mate and will do! :) Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment
Cafe Racer Garage no problem mate. Love the videos. Giving me lots of inspiration for mine. Keep up the good work. Shame youâre not at bikeshed London this weekend.
Dan, sheâs really shaping up nicely. I think you could accomplish the tank and hump match with a wild paint scheme just as well. Just my simple thoughts from 10,000 miles away! Thanks for a great video, Mate.
đđđ
Ma man Gary, Thank you for the ideas any Thank you for your always kind words :) I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up like a full leather wraped hump :)
Cafe Racer Garage sweet idea!
Looks killer. I think bringing the tank lines through the hump is a great idea. Would want to be subtle though I think. Nice work.
You are 100% right Thank you mate, I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up
If you ever do another half hump please do a vid on a removable hump( hornet's nest) nice work brother
Its turning out fantastic! Yes I like the idea and I think you should modify the tail, Ride safe!
Thank you mate I love to get comments like this, makes it so worth every second I put into the shooting and editing :) Got your vote and I will happen so stay tuned for that video :)
Seat hump looks great. Adding that extra hump to match the tank would be cool in theory i just dont think it would look better then what you have now.
Happy birthday! :-) Your friend came with beer...and a fantastic idea! Give him a kiss! ;-) How you do it, with colours or building up (or both?), is up to you maestro, the result will be out of this world!
Thank you John, I'm not sure how I will attack this yet, however, I will definitely make this new design, I'm thinking of doing a full leather wrap of the hump as well just a few different Ideas :) Such a nice comment John thank you :) Sorry for the delay in my reply
No worries mate, life's to short for complications! :-) Leather? Hmm...well you might surprise me! I think it's a bit "caveman". Maybe something new? What about rearlights in 2 rows, made of small pointy LED, from top to bottom? A bit more future! ...just a thought!
Thats awesome mate. Its great to see another fellow aussie on youtube đ i think a nice custom pinstripe following the lines of the tank an down the hump would look great but with your skills matching the hump with the tank would look killer and look factory made. Great job an i will look forward to seeing her compleated. Cheers Mark
Thank you Mark :) yeah I'm definitely going to make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up, what location are you in? I'm on the Gold Coast, I have a lot of subscribers that are Aussies from all over :) thank you for your encouraging words, Its honestly amazong comments like this that keep me going
Cafe Racer Garage thats great, i see alot of american channels but not alot of good aussie ones like yours. I like biker bits aswell which is about everyday bike, camping an mancave stuff. I'm in victoria in a town called kilmore. I love Queensland there is so much to do there. I have been up there on the goldcoast a few times an its beautiful. Planing on an adventure trip following the coast from here to the tip of aus đ your new design an ideas will look awesome mate great work, i know its time consuming but well worth the effort đ cheers Mark
I'd hate to make your project harder but I kinda like that idea of following the lines of the tank. The bike is coming along nicely, can't wait to see the finished product!
Its not at all making it harder Wayne, its a challenge and I love It :) Thank you for the great comment you made me smile
I watched your video as I'm doing a similar hump with a raised centre section so I vote you do a second plug with raised centre section so I can learn from you. Overall profile of the bike looks great.
Thank you mate, I'm unsure what you mean by raised centre section? Do you mean the seat pan to be higher?
Great video and nice work. How do you attach the seat and hump to the frame?
Thanks
Looks already very nice but whit the part of the end make like the tank will be awesome ,)
Thank you mate, I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up
She really is coming together and the seat hump mimicking the lines of the tank would be a killer idea i'm all for it. Please please please can you start to wear a mask when you are cutting and grinding fibreglass mate thats nasty shit if you get that into your lungs.
Good
Happy belated birthday! I think it will be worth the work of adding the lines to your hump. Little details like that are what makes your bike unique. As for the painting, I think you should give it a go yourself, you've got the patience and the talent required to get a great result. the key is to put on enough clear to be able to cut and buff out the orange peel and dirt.
Thank you for the kind words Joe, you are a great guy, I really like that we have the ability to build amazing machines and make them unique just by adding little touches as I know you do the same on your builds, getting little ideas and inspiration from each other is what its all about, I hope my videos are of help to you in some way :) Thanks again for the birthday wishes.
Your videos definitely do help! Inspired me to start working on a removable seat hump of my own :)
Those tapelines make it look better. I would make an illusion in the paint to mimic those edges of the tank!
You are right this is a great Idea thank you :)
Nice tail sectionđ, Iâm yay to match the tank. Maybe you can make a mold of the profile, and bond them onto the hump.
Thank you Tom, I'm probably going to make a mould of the entire part and so some different things to an entire new part to show how I do them to help anyone wanting to do the same :) You should see how cool is looks all painted in gloss black haha Oh hang on, you already did ;) lol
Good idea,sir
Yea for sure !
Ok will do. Thank you for the comment :)
I would do it! It would tie the two together so well and would be something very unique.
You are right :) thank you for the comment and vote Olie :)
Yes to matching the tail with the tank.
Btw a cbr600 f2 rear wheel fits on the rear with only a few alterations (Bigger spacers). You can fit a 160/170 tyre on the 4.5 inch cbr wheel. Probs a bit too late now that you have already powder coated and purchased the rubber hah. Im doing the swap soon.
I do love this idea, maybe my next one :) send me some photos of yours, Id love to see them. Send them via my Cafe Racer Garage FB page as a message :)
Great series , look forward to the videos . Personally I would get rid of the lines on the tank , I think the tank looks high compared to the seat . Just my opinion still think the bike is going to look fantastic when finished . Cheers mate
Thank you Paul it's nice to get different feedback :) Have a great day.
Yay!
Thank you. yeah I'm definitely going to make this new design after making a mould of this hump. I even have a few more cool ideas coming to
Adding the detail from the tank would be worth the effort, though you could likely mimic it with paint. That said, the effort required for the paint is very likely more than with fibre glass. Keep up the awesome work man!
So true, Its going to be fun making a few changes to a new hump so i will take a mould from this one and make a start soon I hope :) the CX Scambler took up some time but than again Im not really in a hurry lol
Yay. Match the tank
I hear you loud and clear :) thanx for the comment brother
Yep on the tank lines copied on the hump ... that would look sweet!! Even with just the tape there you can see it'll tie in and flow really good. As others have said, you could even do it with paint and give the hump just a visual effect of having the slightly raised center section. Coming together real nice now man :) Looking forward to seeing what you do with the rear footrest hangers, air filters and exhaust .. I know that'll all be coming soon ;) Oh and clocks as well ....
Thank you mate, I have loads more Ideas still to come. :) As for the rear-seats and the exhaust, they are parts I'm still trying to work out, Im currently trying to find an aftermarket exhaust for this bike to get the 4 into 1 pipes so i can wrap them to the junction and custom build the rest.
Hey Dan. Looking good as it is but I do agree with some of the other comments that following the lines from the tank would look awsome. Touches like that always set a build appart from others. Perhaps you could use the mold you already have to play around with different profiles rather than muck about with the one you've done? That way you can have different looks for what ever mood you're in! As always, love ya work.
You said it perfectly Ian, I will take a mould from this one and create a few different looks, I even think a fully wrapped leather hump will look awesome :)
A definite yay.
Thank you Stefan :) making a mould of this whole tail section to do this and keep the original
Cannot wait to see it! I am so glad Taylor from Classic Octane sent me here, you are a fantastic builder and a superb guy.
Stefan Krgovic thank you mate :) any question just ask. Feel free to throw any of your ideas in the comments I reply to everyone đ
Hey boss quick question. I just bought a 2000 zx6e. I want to make a cowl that'll just sit over the back seat is it possible and how could I do that?
yay
Thank you Stuart :)
Yes. Yes. Yes. Can always grind it off if you don't like it.
Hahaha this made me laugh but you are right :)
Im actually going to take a mould of this whole tail section to make a few more cool hump styles so stay tuned and thank you for your comment Danny
Yay ;;)))
Thank you mate :)
Another thing take your emblem mounts off the tank, and put them on the hump. To be different small changes get appreciated more.
Yes, great idea. Now, modify the existing one or make a new one from the start... both are great options but from start would be cleaner
yeah I'm definitely going to make this new design after making a mould of this hump. I even have a few more cool ideas coming up so stay tuned and thank you for your comment
You can make the illusion of the design using different colors, I mean if you choose other than the black
That's a very good idea. Thank you Muhannad :)
My pleasure :D
You could even do a flat black with a gloss black stripe
Having those lines flow will make it look really consistant alternatively you could possible follow those lines with paint to achieve a similar outcome
Yes you are right, and the paint idea is a great Idea thank you :)
You are right and i may do this but a also wound like to create the extra hump because I love it :) The amazing comments keep me going :)
alot more extra work bro.....totally worth it though.....getting the proportions right will make ALL the difference
Yay
Thank you :)
You'd better not stop building bikes. The lines on this thing are so good that i can't even watch other builds on other channels because they are sub-par and it drives me insane. Oh well, i suppose that's what happens when the bar is raised. As far as the hump lines, i'd certainly be interested in seeing it done, but I'm not the one doing the work. What you have now looks excellent . If you decide to do it, making a new hump and comparing the two would be your best bet. Hell, show your buddy how to make it ;)
This would have to be the most amazing comment I've had! The comments like this keep me so motivated to share more of my build, so a big thank you to you brother :) I will make the new hump with the lines and how I plan to do it is first making a mould from this one and than making few new humps to play with some other cool ideas i had, just so I can share the process on video and help anyone else wanting to do the same :)
You could just add some pin strips or colour change on top to match the lines of the tank.
Very true thank you for your comment and Idea Ross :)
a yay or a nay? YAY!
Chris Dalvik thank you mate :)
Itâs starting soon
Cafe Racer Garage awesome mate! I recently discovered your channel. Love your work! Keep it up
Yes! I hate to encourage the work. But, in the end. I think it will be worth the effort. Your ride will stand out.
Haha you just want more videos from me lol :) Thank you mate, I will definitely make this new design with a few more ideas still yet to come :)
To be honest. I own a 2001 Honda VFR800Fi. Presently, I am turning it into a naked/cafe/scrambler (Something I like. I hate labels.) Basically, I wanted a new look. So, I decided to get rid of the plastics. As part of the process, I will be making my own custom seat. The seat is for a Ducati 916 subframe (That, somehow, I mounted to the Honda). I.m learning a lot from you. Thanks.
Thank you so much Nick, I love to share my process and my builds but the part I love the most is the amazing guys like yourself that are leaving me such incredible comments, Im honestly so grateful that you take the time to drop me a comment and its the main thing that keeps me motivated. I post one video a week Sunday or Monday. 2001 Honda VFR800Fi. is a very unique bike to turn into a naked/cafe/scrambler, Id love to see a picture if you would like to pm me and drop me a picture on the Cafe Racer FB page
It's got to be a yay for the lines mate
Thank you mate, I will definitely make this new design and I even have a few more cool ideas coming up so stay tuned :)
YEAH, match the tank lines, make them blend into nothing like the tank
leave it as it is!!
Thank you mate, :)
beaufitul craftsmanship man. It is also so good watch your videos and advise. Keep going!!!
More work and time, but would flow really well with the tank.
I agree with you brother, thank you :)
How does the seat pan, and hump mount to the bike?
Great question, Its held in with one bolt at the back and hooks under the tank at the front. :)
What kind of foam do u use for shapeing the seat
Robert Cig here you go mate :)
Foam for shaping (Same density as pink foam) amzn.to/2sB8eDZ
Any questions just ask.
Cafe Racer Garage thank you for responce
Do you make and sell these seat pans/ hump?
No, unfortunately at this stage I donât
I don't see how you have a choice. Matching the feature on the hump is a great idea. If you don't do it, that will be all you ever see.
You are 100% right :) thank you for your comment my friend :)
I think leave it. I donât think it worth I it for the little lines
Thank you mate :)
I did the same thing on my CB750, dit it with metal. ibb.co/jbVzAo
ibb.co/nvZRqo
That looks so cool, you did an amazing job, thank you for sharing. What location was that shot taken?
thanks, Shot was taken in Brugge (Belgium) at the Hermanus motorcycle store: www.hermanusbruges.be/ Cheers Aaron
everything has too many episodes
Unfortunately I canât please everybody but I do my best to try and show as much of the process as possible to help anybody else who wants to build a motorcycle and learn some new skills.
Have a great day
yay
Thank you, Taking a mould of this one so i can do this, Thank you for your comment mate :)
