I find myself watching this video at least once a year as inspiration. The more I do bike builds, the more amazed I am at your camera work and editing. The way you manage to show the whole process in just 17 minutes while nothing feels rushed is so impressive. Such an epic build.

I have no words to describe how incredible this video is. You made every detail on this bike and you can proudly say that you did EVERYTHING on this bike. There is no other motorcycle build video as complete as yours. I feel obliged to say, CONGRATULATIONS! You made it. I'm watching this video 3 years after you published it but it doesn't matter, after all the hard work you put into that bike, it was the least I could say congratulations.
Wow! Hope you are recovered and enjoying time with loved ones! What an amazing transformation! I need to go look at your other videos. I want to see the shop!
I accidentally found your channel when I was looking at "all things dirt bike". I nearly passed over your vids but got intrigued by your youth and work ethic. After the first video I was hooked. I'm an old guy at the end of my dirt bike days but not content to let the fire go out. I've been with you thru the acquisition of the bike to, now, its completion. What a ride it has been! I've learned from you, prayed for you, offered advice when appropriate, and watched you and the bike recover. The whole of this experience has been, in ways, a lesson for all of us. Thanks for being there for us as we have been for you. I hope that you will look back on this time as a blessed time for you, your girl, your parents, and us, the guys/gals that love dirt bikes and the great part of our lives our bikes are....Keep the Faith, Cam.....I'll be watching and, once in a while, offering a prayer for you. Peace, Kiddo, Tom

Hoping for your full recovery, hope this won't stop you from creating more videos! I love this video...
that engine paint job is so underrated that shit looks so clean
So I found this video, I was mesmerized by it. Really amazed so I started watching the series.. it took me 1.5 weeks to finish the entire series and now I went back to see this video a second time.. the work you do man, and the shit you've been through. You're an incredibly humble and amazing person, the bike turned out drop dead gorgeous! If anyone deserves to be doing this kind of work it's you man💪🏻
Beautiful work and beautiful story too. Thanks for the tips
Amazing job! I'm impressed! Congratulations!
That was so impressive to see your craftsmanship and skill. It broke my heart when I saw the pics of you sick and seeing your family, so glad to know that you pulled through. Keep doing great things.
"Meticulous". That's the word that comes to mind when I watched this video. You have the hands of a surgeon and an attention to detail that personifies perfection.
You sir are extraordinary, an inspiration and a true Champion! Your bike is a masterpiece. Bravo!!! 🙌
One of the greatest build of all time.Good work mate
Oh man, this is one of those videos you can watch over and over again!
Huge respect dude 🤙🏼 never ever sell this bike !! Always look at it as a sign of how strong you are 🤙🏼
This man deserves a reward for this coz this is insane and the fact that he got sick half way and came back and did it like it was nothing like that is the sickest bike I have ever seen
Glad your feeling better and once again killer build
I can't get enough of this bike. Pure awesomeness.(started a new project for myself last week. My last build is from last year)
Imagine every stock bike being built like he rebuilt this beauty.
This is really dope congrats on your healthy recovery. This bike is awesome
