Wow does this bring back memories! When I was in jr high school I lived in the mountains in a remote area. I had a real need to ride. I had no money and town was to far away to ride my bicycle. I loved dirt bikes. I traded everything to get  motorcycle parts. I built many different powered contraptions. I welded up one contraption that was made from 7 different manufacturers.It was a riot to ride! Here is the list, Honda, Hodaka, Husky, Ossa, Greaves/AJ Stormer, Suzuki, Bultaco. I did finally get a real motocross bike but the first 3 monstrosities were of my own creation LOL. Now I still live in the mountains of Oregon but living off grid and thinking outside the box is still a joy.Thanks for the Video.

Liked the music on the first two videos. Nice concept, however the welding looks a little scary. Good luck.

looks great! I was looking at the chain and it seems loose. You can get what is called an "chain idler sprocket" and attach it to a bar/spring to make your own chain tensioner to keep from jacking up your sprockets or slinging your chain off.

Great job on the shift linkage a lot of engineering, keep up the awesome videos!

[ayoub]

very impressed with your work all your projects are amazing and you are such a sweet dude, I started watching you about a year ago I started from your first video to the last one and when you said that you are going to the military I said damn it he won't be doing any project yet you still manage to do awsome stuff thank you for that oliver much love from algeria :)

[pachy]

Always great to see diesel bikes, the Indian ones are very slow but there's some clever military ones about, I would not run a chain that slack but I'm sure you will tension it. your gear linkage between 4th & 5th needs a rethink too lol (Diesel bikes really REALLY need lots of gears to get a good top speed)
but lovely to see this bike & keep up the good work..

[HeroMtz]

Hey if you read this just know you are inspiring people to do this too and just know that I love your videos .

[nate_resells]

Hey Oliver! cool spark effects on ur Video, my heart sank when you plopped down the broken 4th gear, mayb the previous owner was HARD on it, and you juz gave it enough reason to go capluie :) nice job with the extension. Im hoping U demonstrate it going in reverse at least for juz a few feet, Oh I commented on a few of ur videos not realized you had like 35+ videos OMG ur a busy builder, I only clicked on the handful I saw in my browser then figured out how to find the parts of ur builds that i missed. I liked ur clever bending to get the diesel exhaust farther back, and WOW that pumping slow start up of the diesel engine was mega MANLY! LoL I hope the Air Force or what ever branch u end up in puts ur mechanical/engineering skills to good use

I knew a guy who had a diesel bike back in the 90's, it was based on a Royal Enfield, it was the slowest thing ever but it would almost go from one end of the UK to the other on a single tank of fuel!!

[marting]

Great stuff! I like the functionality over beauty approach.

[AutodidactEngineer]

Perfect doomsday bike!!
Though a more robust kohler vtwin would have been nicer!

[mustie]

looks great, how well does the trans shift on the fly,

[kiranshinde]

What was the name of the transmission u ordered pls mention thanx keep up the good work nice bike I liked it keep making videos

[jakebrown]

one thing you should add is some sort of slap shifter, instead of the foot shifter

[AwsomeVids]

Sweet seat Oliver! Are you going to make it a cafe racer bike? That would be awesome

[MrSlehofer]

now turbocharge it and make it a proper turbo diesel that rolls coal! :3

[williamn]

can you run biodiesel through it? this is awesome.

[Pineapplepen_]

Good job, Tell me in your country have to do the paperwork on a homemade motorcycle?

[abhimanyudubey]

How to build this gear system aur from where to buy

[miguelatambucho]

Great job. What kind of transmission are you using?
