xs bobber. . . . . . original???

[Iron_inc]

Traded a 650 for some custom painted tins and this is what I started. Not too sure if some of my ideas are really too original, but I can't really stay away from the "old skill" look

This is what I got for to sets of tins(tank n fender) 11/12

A lil chop

A lil Polish

A fender I found chopped an welded a rib down the center

Stainless electric box......ball

Suicide clutch?? YES PLEASE

Good fit I think ...and hell yes I make the "vroooom vrooom" noise

 

[Iron_inc]

So far I'm about 3 to 350 + work into the build, plans for kandy green paint w/koi fish and street/enduro tires

 

[Paulrxs650]

I like what youve got going on there! Im about half way through my hardtail build - keep the pics coming!

 

[2poler]

looks like a great start.

What is the rise on those bars/risers?

 

[Iron_inc]

I really have no idea the risers I had In the parts box and I built the bars to what I thought I looked cool but I can measure when I get home are you wanting to k ow the total height?

 

[2poler]

Total height. It is very close to the height I am looking for and am just trying to get a general idea of the the bar height I am looking for.

 

[Iron_inc]

I will measure as soon as I get home here's a better pic of the bars

 

[SINKING78]

good start. Is that your CB with a springer in the background? looks mean

 

[Iron_inc]

Thanks , yes sir the red r6 and the springer are mine but that's not a cb its a fj1200. It had a CB in it when I first built it but the motor was too small for the 1"1/2 frame and 250 tire

[Iron_inc]

2polar its a 14" rise total 3" risers
Evilside I'm good with helping out out just let me know what you need. This is my 5th build so I have a few stripes (not as many as some others on here)

 

[Iron_inc]

An idea for top of the gas tank what do you guys think??

 

[javafinger]

nice idea of pic.. what collor its gonna be?

 

[Scrambled]

nice idea of pic.. what collor its gonna be?

Better question to ask is does it run ?

 

[Iron_inc]

Javafinger I'm thinking black koi fish on top fish scales on the side all under a hot hues candy green
scrambled idk if it runs as you can see I'm only 50/60 percent of the way through the build. The motor hadcompression and no oil leaks so that was good enough for me (worst case scenario I pull the motor and take it back to my business partner for another one)

 

[javafinger]

Ah! Koi.. Lucky symbol so its black, on green? Put som gold line would be nice for my eyes well actually im just curious the final build.. Not give som attention in motor.. Since you guys there have a lot cheap and good condition part.. Not like here in indonesia.. Keep us the update bro..

 

[Iron_inc]

Black under green maybe some white lines and silver flake but ill picutre up some ideas of gold. No not too worries about the motor parts aren't too hard to come by around here

 

[Iron_inc]

Somethinglike this but in green

 

[PlugHead]

This bike looks killer so far. Did you just drill the backbone for the tank mount or did you sleeve it?

 

[Iron_inc]

I've only drilled the top mount so far most likely weld some spacers on the back bone sometime In The near future
