  • ??????

  • The best video I saw in YT. Congratulations for your awesome work from Argentina!

  • Awesom!

  • AND HOW IS THIS A CBR ENGINE? I SEE A STRAIGHT 6.......

  • omg, the hyper inflation is causing super stupid people in the USA.

    the title says CBX, not CBR.

  • @naturalyshocked there is cbx too man! chill

  • @FoSbaKiaS hehe, that's is the reason about my comment, the subjexct here is about the CBX, not the CBR

  • that is awesome

  • This is superb, well done, top marks!

  • Excellent,top notch work!

  • very nice man great job

    which software you use

  • nice video

  • Damn sexy. Top notch work.

  • Great work Dude !

  • absolutely amazing!

    how much time did this take? my hats off to you man... one of the best things ive seen in my life.

  • @Transane

    If you search for olafzijnbuis you find the same video in 1280 x 720 pix HD

    Looks much better.

    Took about 10900 images to produce. Total avout 2 weeks or so with Povray.

  • Waarom zet je die video met betere kwaliteit niet op Youtube? Simpel toch?

  • @martiangrundy

    mail to olaf_verkoop at hotmail to receive a better quality movie.

  • wow, that's some serious computer animation. I am definitely impressed.  Values opening closing, pistons firing, I can't get enough.

  • dood congrats on that, that was pretty epic and original, never seen it done like that before

  • such a wonderful work u did, hats up dude.............

    may i know which SW were u use

  • Povray for the images, thousands of them

  • Awesome!!! Reeeeeeally great Job!! U surely spent weeks on this. Super

  • Great job! You are awesome....

  • Time to watch my video Honda XRM RS, thanks.

  • Really nicely done.

  • WOW, this is the best animation I've ever seen.

    It is wonderful to see which forms in the different parts connect.

    A game with the forms.

    5 stars for this video.

  • This video is made of awesome.

  • Povray mostly.

    And videomach to make the movie.

  • 1-5-3-6-2-4, nice firing order!!!

  • That is indeed the correct firing order.

    To be sure I just checked it in the manual again.

    The CBX engine is much like a assembly of 2 3-cylinder enginges mounted head to head.

    In fact each sparkplug also fires during the exhaust stroke. This way there is no need for a distribitor.

    For the youtube animation I decided to only show a single firing near the end of the compression stroke.

  • Does anybody knows why they stop producting six cylinder bikes?The only new its a suzuki prototype...Was a matter of cost or it has to do with the way the bikes behave?thanx

  • most likely it was cost but remember the CBX is nearly 40 years old and in that time theyve developed 4 cyl and even some 2 cyl bikes that have more power, torque, are smoother and more economical

  • In fact the CBX is now only about 30 years old.

    I feel that the CBX-1000 was viewed too much as a Super Sport bike.

    When other (also cheaper) bikes became a bit faster it was all over.

    Nevertheless I still look at my CBX-1000 Prolink as my new bike...

    Compared with some modern bikes it is very well made. Look at the brake pedal: a nice aluninium casting. Compare it to the sheet metal parts with poor welding on some modern bikes...

  • Waoh!!! 5/5

  • that was weird, it just played the whole 6 mins in about 30 seconds!! whats up with that??

  • Shit dude nice job on the simulation and your hard work on making the pieces, I have worked with a program much like that one and I have to say it is some hard stuff to do if you don't have all the knowledge. Good job.

  • For those few who don't believe it, yes the classic '79-'82 Honda CBX is a 24 valve, six cylinder motorcycle. I ride my '82 almost daily.

    They have a feel and a sound that is truly unique.

    Thank you for this incredible rendition of the motor.

  • Plus you can take up both lanes at once :D

  • This cute, sarcastic joke of a comment implies that the bike is wide.

    While it does look wide, by moving the alternator and ignition from the ends of the crankshaft to a jackshaft behind the cylinders - a practice that is now common but began with the revolutionary CBX design, the overall width of the CBX is no more than other bikes.

  • Hard to find stats on the width, but one site lists the engine alone as 585mm wide ... almost double the frame width of an R1, and certainly a whole lot more than either of my bikes :D

    While I appreciate you love your ride, you need to grow a sense of humour :P

  • Okay, perhaps I should have said 'the overall width... is no more than other bikes of the period'. Comparing it to an R1 is ridiculous - incidentally, your R-1 has its accessories mounted on a jackshaft, too, as was first done on the CBX.

    I have quite a sense of humor, I just haven't found anything you said funny. At least, not yet.

  • OTHER bikes of the period? How about a Ducati 888? Or my GS450? Care to qualify the statement again? XD

    How about you just butch up and admit that it's a wide ass bike and you can't get around that. Personally, I don't mind - it's a cool ass ride and I'd have one ... I just think it's bloody wide :)

    I don't have an R-1 either cos I've got taste :D

  • Now you are just being argumentative. The CBX was not a Ducati nor a pansy-ass bike like a GS450.

    Those who ride understand the point I was making. Although the CBX motor looks extremely wide, it is no wider overall than the KZ 1000's or GS 1100's that were it's competition.

    You were the one who compared it to an R1, hence I assumed that you might ride one.

    But I agree with you that a CBX is a 'cool ass' ride.

    No one would ever say that of a GS450...

  • Now you're just being a poor loser ...

    You said ANY bike so I googled the width of a popular bike and you were wrong. Then you said any bike of the era so I listed a couple and you were wrong. Now you're comparing it to one of the few other 6 cylinder bikes ... where will it end?

    It LOOKS wide cos it IS wide ... grow a sack, admit it, laugh at your eclectic taste in bikes and stop trying to prove it's something it's not!

    PS. who cares what people say - I'd rather ride the GS than walk ;)

  • You obviously know nothing about bikes.

    The KZs and GSes that I mentioned are fours. If you knew ANYTHING at all about bikes you would have known that.

    I'll bet that not only do you ride a kid's sized bike but you probably squat to pee, too. And your other bike must be a Schwinn.

    I'm done with you and this thread.

    But I must say that reading where a worthless wuss loser such as you has told me to grow a sack - now that is funny!

  • Are you sure, Mr.Know-it-all? KZ1300 was a 6 cylinder ... GS450 was a twin but the bigger ones were I4's yeah.

    Obviously, if you're resorting to childish name calling I'm not going to list my bikes here.

    So final score then - the CBX is WIDE and you're a crybaby.

    Villacinca - more cylinder was a lo-tech way to make more power. Complex and expensive to build & maintain, they don't bother with it anymore (except in like Goldwings) cos you can make more power with 4, 3 or 2 cylinders - cheaply.

  • It just looks a bit wide. In fact it is much smaller than a BMW boxer.

    If they had nod moved the alternator and ignition up and back it would be a lot wider.

    And yes it has the aerodynamics of a fridge.

    But so what!

  • great...

    btw six cylinder motorcycle? It must be a machine for selfmurderers :P

  • ...wooow

  • Superbly......

  • thaTS not...thats not a motorcycle engine the title is wrong i mean they videos good but... ill shut myself up now

  • Well, it is motorcycle engine.

    Google for Honda CBX 1000 and you find plenty information.

    Olaf

  • as a person who plays with 3d animation I found this video educational

  • awesome clip

    i'll be drivin one to the isle of man tommorrow :-)

  • Whoww

    Extreamly enjoyable since I have 2 of them.

    Obviously you are a mechanics graduate.

    Now, would it not be nice to put the simulation through a FEM thermodynamic analysis to?

  • Gewoon echt mooi!

  • Very cool!!!

  • WOW!!! great piece of work!!!

  • what program do you use to do this?

  • Hi,

    I produces the images with Povray 3.1

    After a few weeks !!! I used VideoMach to make it into a movie.

    original size was 1280 x 1024 pix at 30 fps and looks a lot better.

  • very fantastic !

    you are big!

    cbx forever

  • absolutely amazing...respect!!!

    ps teach me pls

  • THAT WAS AWESOME :D

  • PPPFFFTT... Its nothing that Jim Steenson could'nt fix!

    Team Fabulous.

  • lol funny video, I like the part where the cylinder turns into a semi-cicle. classic stuff.

  • Even if you've never seen the inside of one of these motors, it would still be amazing. Even more so when you have been inside one!

  • Fantastic work !

  • Excellent!!

  • Wow

    You seem to have mastered that software.

  • fantastic! how long to render??? :P

  • Thank you for your comment.

    It took weeks on end every night.

    I rendered it at 640 x 480 pix first, but later at 1280 x 1024 pix. All done on a 2 MHz P4.

    I looked at your video work. I like it very much. My main interest is mechanical things. I liked to learn some Povray.

    I rendered the same scene at 15000 x 10000 pix a few weeks ago. But with a tiles background. Took 2 nights.
