Bobber wanted for commission in UK

[kimmea]

Hi Guys

I am based in North East Scotland and am looking for someone to commission me an XS650 bobber.
Is there anyone in here from UK who can recommend anyone ...or even have one they are thinking of selling .!

Thanks in advance
Mike

Hi and welcome.
Have you considered building your own? There are companies in the UK, that do Custom builds, albeit I cant think of any off the top of my head. However, comissioning anyone to do a build will be fairly expensive.
Checkout ebay for Bobbers for sale - I think theres a few on there now - http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_o...ksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=xs650+bobber&_sacat=9800

Hi,

Yep - I know the feeling

Thanks - we are getting there!

Your best bet would be to buy one, if you can find what you're looking for. At least that way someone else has put all the money and effort in - Just have to be careful in picking a good one

Stick a reques tin the classifieds on this forum - you might be lucky

I assume you're Aberdeen way?

Hi Conrad,
it's one thing if you are too busy to go riding but if it's that you can't hold the bike upright at red lights and stop signs these days, hang a sidecar on it.
A sidecar has kept me riding for the last few years, you can load 12 dozen beer in one with the tonneau down and they are a great chick magnet.

Okay, I think I see the problem here...
