Man I wasn't planning on watching it all and then I just couldn't stop. This is peak mechanics asmr. Well done sir
That's one of the highest compliments you can get. Thank you for spending that half hour with me, Ben!
@@madmarc who taught you all this did learned you self?
same here. I just stopped what i was doing and sat quietly for the last 20 minutes
@@mahdigire78 same question i need to know who teach this guy
Same here. I was mesmerized.😎😬
Great to see there are still people who take pride in their work, great job mate .
Thank you my friend 🙏
Ghhj
Simply put, the best dirt bike restoration build ever put to film. Thank you for creating this.
Thank you Robbie, that means a lot!
You are evidently a well-trained motorcycle mechanic. Well done!
I could watch videos like this for hours, please make another one. This is incredible and truly a work of art
Thanks Dude!
This work is a piece of art!
This video was truly incredible. This the amount of time, money, and effort that went into this restoration is remarkable, it makes me wish that more people would care about what they did. My favorite part was the fact that he went the extra mile to even do the serial number on the bike to where it would stand out. This man has incredible talent, and I can't wait to see his full restoration on his next bike.
That's very kind of you Dino, thank you for the comment.
This is so awesome on so many levels. The dedication and effort to this project (not to mention documenting and editing it all) is next level. You Sir are an artist in every sense of the word! Bravo!!!
Thank you so much Dirk!
One of the best restorations on a dirt bike I’ve seen… I love how it turned out
Amazing Restoration, you rebuilt it to perfection. I'm working on a 1997 Kawasaki myself, got to learn a lot from your video.
Awesome dude, good luck with your project!
It is hypnotic to see someone work with precision and love for what is done. Sensational.
ok holy crap I have a lot to say about this video. 1. This is an absolute masterpiece before you even consider the bike and the amount of hours that went into it. The drama, the cinematography, it just cant be understated how amazing this is. 2. I feel bad for the people that wont see this, or will and wont understand it. They're just simply missing out. 3. This should be shown in schools, like a required part of the curriculum and everything. Like seriously, college graduations, you name it. For real, I appreciate the hell out of this video, the effort into the build, the cinematography, just the straight up bold simplicity. I sat here and literally drooled for an entire 30 minutes. Thank you. and subscribed definitely
I should add that the audio was absolutely incredible. It was so good it was almost an after thought, almost an after taste. Like the taste left after a savory dessert. Freakin awesome, I loved it.
Awesome job man! The hours to build the bike and shoot the video they way you did shows true dedication and craftsmanship. Love the Music too!
Thank you Steve! I appreciate it.
never though cleaning a bike could make me cry
I never thought so many people would tell me that, but it is indeed a common reaction.
Coolest thing ive ever seen in my life. I hope you're extremely proud of yourself. well done.
Thank you Patrick!
Omg, I love watching bike's restoration videos and I can say this is the best I've ever seen. Awesome job my friend, congratulations!
Absolutely amazing work my friend! Ready to see another build
This is how a craftsman should bring this level of actual body of work and artistry to any project of restoration. No rushing and/or corner cutting, or compromise. Do it completely right the first time, and look what you have, a Masterpiece. Congratulations Marc , well done. Thank you and Godbless you and your family ✝️🛐❤️🙏
Thank you Anthony!! I appreciate your kindness.
Excellent work. Really enjoyed this! You make it look easy. A few years back I restored a KDX125 from a total wreck and created my childhood dream bike. It's not easy, but it's certainly worth it!
I am in awe at this beautiful work of art… I cannot believe that I watched the entire video, but this talent of yours was mesmerizing. Well done sir!
What a work of art. Absolutely incredible work, outstanding color choices. Keep at your craft and keep restoring these timeless pieces. I’m only disappointed we didn’t get to hear that beauty purr.
Thank you dude! I ride it at end. See the last minute of the video.
Amazing! This was great from start to the end. Hard to beleave that 30 Minutes can fly by so fast.
Wow thanks for sticking to the end!
Beautiful... Thx for share 🔝🥂
I used to own a KX 125 of this model. This video brought back some great memories. Outstanding work, mate, the bike is a work of art.
Thanks dude!
Yes, that was mesmerizing. Thank you for the effort you put into this video. It brought back memories of my KX500 🥰
Amazing job ! You deserve way more subscribers , attention you pay to details is awesome 🤩 , cheers 🇫🇷
Thank you Arnaud!!
Lo realizado fue una obra de arte, felicitaciones!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Also relaxing because right from the start you understand this guy knows what he’s doing. Really impressive.
wow bud that looks amazing you did a heck of a good job. best dirt bike restoration i have ever seen.
So mesmerizing, what an incredible project to undertake. You've further inspired me to get an old 2 stroke and rebuild what I can! Thank you for this type of content.
Thanks for watching Nicholas!
I've never seen someone do such amazing work
Complete work of art.. the amount of time for the editing and build is mind blowing, thanks for sharing this.
Wow....just 👌. Its so gratifying knowing that you built a brand new bike from the ground up. You can't buy that feeling. Top knotch build.
U my friend deserve way more subscribers and views..excellent work,details and finishing..just exquisite..weldone...
Thank you Windy!
This won't be short, but I want you to read it. This what you have done is so awesome that I almost cried, because I now how much effort you put into building this bike. I am an mechanical engineer and also motorcycle enthusiast. When you started striping it off, I said fuck, this will be a long journey, and it was. I unfortunately don't have time to watch all your videos but this one is amazing. In the middle of the video, I was so disappointed in myself when I have realised that I am probably not capable of doing 10% of what you have done. But man, when you made yourself a new leather seat...... Common man hahaha Where does your knowledge stop? What are you, a machine? Just kidding, please enjoy this bike and I am sending you greetings from Croatia. P.S. this is what youtube should be for and not for people like fucking Jake and Logan Paul which are making kids much more stupid than they should be.
I had to look up who Jake and Logan Paul are, and I have to concur with your opinion lol. Thanks man, I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Comments like this encourage me to keep making videos. 🙏
There is no way this man can live in a house that he did not build or construct it would drive him nuts. What a hell of a job awesome
Brilliant work , you can tell your a true perfectionist
Agreed. This is the epitome of skill/artistic ability. Well done, this restore was nothing short of amazing.
I have a 96'. I loved every bit of what you did here. Great job sir!
Probably the best restoration I've ever watched
See IG for cool stuff: instagram.com/madmarcmoto/ FB too: facebook.com/madmarcmoto PS: If you can't endure 30 minutes of classical music, watch the condensed version here: kzhead.info/sun/fbB9cqycmKSAjGg/bejne.html I'm currently building an RM250. Check it out here! kzhead.info/channel/PLIYhPHL85g7H7yLctIWTvabCZFl6k7hsW.html
I like it much more than these heavy metal tunes everybody else uses. Very relaxing thanks!
@@AbcAbc-ox6pg lol
Marc I just bought a tt 350 130 hrs Super clean was in an old man's collection. I'm 71, And I love putting around on it. Keep up the good work really enjoy Watching and listening to that fine music.
Bubby I can handle a lot I use to work out with a man who would listen to classical music when he worked out 🤣 haha true story
you should post a non speed up version too, its very relaxing to watch
I just read the rest of the Comments. I saw the description I was looking for. 'A work of art' most certainly. What a wonderful example you are for young people interested in dirt biking. You deserve much credit. Later; I've got to watch this some more.
Without a doubt, one of the finest videos online. Not to mention how amazing that KX turned out to be. Going to search through comments to see if there’s a total hours and parts cost for the project.
I particularly enjoyed the sanding and polishing parts a lot. This is perfection. Thank you.
There are a lot of restoration vids but the quality of the work on this is just head and shoulders above the rest. To see the bike being ragged at the end is the cherry on the cake
the extra mile he went to paint the bike stand was amazing + all the other work
Best restoration video I've ever seen!!! Respect!
Thank you Dimitris!
The precision and knowledge in this video is unbelievable!!
i cant believe how much satisfying and peaceful was..Piece of art.
I love that you're restoring it vs parting it. In the end you'll get so much more out of your videos & reviving bikes, than some quick cash stripping bikes.
Wow! Beautiful rebuild and awesome talent! Watched every minute of it
Beyond impressed ... ..outstanding restoration......really enjoyed viewing your work
Your mechanical skills are beyond any doubt, but enclothing that with classic music we took a look at your state of soul and mind. EXCELLED
Truly a work of art. Absolutely stunning...
Top notch excellent work. I ride and maintain my own street and off road and wouldn't have the patience to take on this sort of project as a hobby and I get paid to work on tractor trailers for a living. You've got something to be proud of there!
You certainly know your stuff, amazing build. 💯👍🇬🇧
The depth of detail in the work is incredible, well done my friend.
That is inspiring work, Marc!
Such great filming, editing. Very enjoyable to watch.
Very impresive! The work you did its just priceless!
Well done! No shortage of knowledge, scotchbrite, patience or camera angles. So much time...and satisfaction.
Thank you Tim! I'm happy you enjoyed it!
Absolutely outstanding job mate. New subscriber ✌🏻
