Chopped and Bobbed



So I think I am on the right path. As you can see I swapped out the front end to a Sportster set up and a Avon tire. So 16 rear and 19 front. Always liked the look of bubble tires front and rear. Also I do not want to build this bike looking just like my other bike. I am gonna lower the front 3 inches and that should get in level. Fat Bobs are a go and I need a little bit bigger seat and fender to balance out the rear. Anyways this is what I do and so far so good. I loath the term Bobber but I have to say that this is looking like a chopped and bobbed motorcycle if I ever saw one.

  1. You got it man, front end is perfect and with a bit more meat behind the tank as you said, it'll be a killer, chopped and bobbed indeed, bravo !!

  2. Oh man...this bike is killer Ricky! Definitely spot on..based on your previous blog entry, I was going to say a shortened wideglide with dual 16's front and rear...but I don't think it could look any prettier than your current set-up. Like the direction you are going with this beast. I swear..If I ever get enough coin to have another scoot, Im coming to you! Nice job..can't wait to see this one completed. Later..Vince
