    Very nice Vid! Beautifully done. I really like the CX/GL500. The only thing that always bugs me is the rear wheel and the extremely thin tire. Its looks so weird. It def. Needs a wheel/tire twice the size in my opinion

  • @willnicholson9859
    @willnicholson985911 ай бұрын

    Thank you and I agree with the rear wheel. Unfortunately the swing arm is what restricts wheel size. This is pretty much as big as you can go before needing to make some significant modifications for clearance.

  • @willnicholson9859
    @willnicholson98592 жыл бұрын

    This was most definitely a budget build so the wheels stayed as they were from the factory - arguably more 'period correct' if that is your thing.. I'd like to rebuild it one day and maybe some spoked wheels and a USD front end conversion.... but we'll see.

    Hello Captain Keyboard Warrior Philip Smith. You should know I shot all this footage myself while we visited the Isle of Man TT in 2017 for the sole purpose of sharing the event and memories with my friends and family. If I was doing it for internet points or 'fame', it would have been the worse career move to date. Sadly a lot of the footage I shot has been taken without my permission and claimed by others. Things like this don't exactly motivate me to share anything in the future when you get faceless individuals making false claims on the internet. Good luck, I hope you have better things to do with your day.
