I Reveal My £10,000 Trackday Bike Build with Ruroc. The journey comes to an end. My first track day bike build was such a fun project to undertake. I had no idea where it would take me, from choosing a GSX-R 750 to getting carbon fairings for it. I ventured up to Knockhill Racing circuit to test out my finished bike.

Great result ! Bike looks awesome👏 can’t wait till the next one .
Would have been nice to see a final rundown list of what everything cost

Well, I'd say you've not forgotten how to ride at all,,,,just a tad quicker than I was, but remember the track was about 3 miles longer back in the 90s, just ask yer dad!!!😂😂
Admire your honesty when it came to the bike build!! Keep up the good work mate , cheers! 👍

@racmaxcam7904 3 years ago

That's a great finished job by all involved. It was good seeing you hit your marker every time coming into and out of the last turn leading onto the start finish straight. I bet the rest on track were thinking who the hell is that guy passing everybody , the gigs up haha. :}

A 750 smoking 1000cc bikes! Love it!

Have you thought about entering the No Limits endurance race on the bike with a couple of ex racers for a laugh? Mad mark as crew chief would be interesting

@nickrider5220 3 years ago

Very nice Taylor, great series and result. Poor riders at Knockhill must've wondered what was going on...... 'ah, Taylor Mac' ! - still proper fast !

@bduk-00 3 years ago

An R1 build next would be great 👍

@robertmarshall2521 3 years ago

How about a vintage race bike or even a sidecar outfit. Loving the whole nine yards of what your doing.

@tonyrest6714 3 years ago

How about a paddock scooter next , one to carry wheels , tow a trailer and hoon in the paddock 😂

@paulprescott7913 3 years ago

Very interesting to be honest. You managed to pick the day of the year that it didnt rain at Knockhill as well 😂

@peterwebber6532 3 years ago

TMac great job, more please, keep builds within reasonable track-day punter budget, comparing standard bike to track modified with what the improvements mean for track riding, you are on a winner. 😊

Taylor your videos are great 😅 "me converting my van" "me making a track bike" - both projects yeeeaaahhh I didn't have the time or skills. I can tell you that it is so nice to see that even someone who has raced his whole life is as useless at these projects as your average Joe (still haven't finished my van!)

Triumph 765rs build next please, either retaining the handlebars (for broken old men like me) or with a moto2 style bodywork kit.

@claretbuck1882 3 years ago

Awesome bud cheers 👍🏻

Was fun to watch...all the best.

@glennrickwood7532 3 years ago

Absolutely loved this bike build Taylor. Shows how tricky it can be when you have an older bike. Great stuff. 👍

@alexberardi91 3 years ago

You made me laugh ! And the bike’s amazing!! Keep up the amazing work Taylor

@The_Repairman_Workshop 3 years ago

Great bike build and video. And so lovely of the trackday organisers to allow you into The novice group with your lack of recent track riding and all. 😂😂
