Honda CB 500 road to race bike build (part 1) walkaround and teardown pc32 pc32s 93-01

Thought I'd do a build video of my Honda CB 500 road to race bike. I bought this as a bit of fun but then decided to turn it into a race bike, with the intention of racing in the Thundersport series.

In a series of videos, I show I took the bike from standard road set up, stripped the bike down fully, and then built it into a race bike. This is the first time I've taken a bike and stripped it down to an engine/frame. learned a lot doing this and had a lot of fun too. Hopefully it will help a few others interested in these bikes.

In this first video, I show the bike as standard and explain my plans for it. I have various parts to put on the bike, and I also begin the tear down of the bike. Along the way I find a few issues which I wasn't expecting!

Please leave a comment if you liked the video or have any questions about the build/bike. 👍

I've had a lot of help from fellow cb500 builders and racers, so I won't try claim credit for all the tips and info in the video's. A huge thanks to those who have helped me, you know who you are 👍

I'll post each episode as I work on the bike over the next few weeks/months.
