On this channel you’ll see the full restoration of an old BMW R45—done on a balcony, because space is limited but the obsession isn’t. I break down every step of the process: stripping parts, cleaning decades of grime, repainting, rebuilding, replacing what’s dead, and bringing the bike back to life piece by piece.

It’s not a fancy workshop. It’s not sponsored. It’s just real, practical work in tight conditions. If you like classic bikes, DIY fixes, or seeing someone grind through a project with stubborn determination, you’ll fit right in here.

This R45 is just the beginning. Once it’s done, the goal is to build a proper café racer from scratch. Stick around if you want to follow the whole journey.
