Comment on your video: my bobber album kawasaki 2007
so, you change the seat, take off the front fender, change the exhaust, paint it, keep it stock hight and call it something its not... cool... wait, i mean nice paint bro! that isn't a bobber.
hey man great job, I jus baught a 1980 kz440 in great condition and will bobber it sometime after i get the funds, but where did u find the springs for the front forks cuz i want to beef mine up .
damn fine job dude its not always "easy" to build those i know i do it for a living. by the way nice choice one the front end i always liked that style.
i think the winged "M" is actually from the matchless motorcyle company built in plumstead england since the early 1900`s.there is a bobber in neyo`s video "closer"(check it out on you tube)made from a matchless thats pretty sweet!
...did you know that the "Winged M" logo you have on that bike is actually an Italian logo?
It comes from "MOTMO", a company that shut down in the early '80 when Honda&Co. started their aggressive import in Europe.
In the '50s MOTMO produced not just mopeds but 2stroke cafe racers for club races in 50, 125 and 175 class. That's how many champions started out, with weekend clubman races, until they struck gold with a sponsor or two.
Man, any bike that runs and looks good like yours is a sweet ride. Nice paint. I'm in the middle of a hardtail CB 360 conversion. Me and the boy's first try. It's harder than it looks. Ride proudly and far.
and why would he get a hard tail kit on something like this if he wanted it lowered that much i would just let the swing arm all the way up and weld 2 braces in place of the shocks why spend the money
wow there are tons of idiots on here nice bike by the way... to clear things up for the nimrods a any bike can be a bobber or a chopper a bobber is a bike that is lowered in the ass and the front end is mainly stock a chopper is normally a bike that are chopped in the front to put the forks at at a steep degree although some choppers are also bobbed in the back it has nothing to do with the brand of bike motor ect IDIOTS!!
A Bobber has nothing to do with how low the rear end is. bobbers started off after Vietnam, when returning soldiers (craving an adrenaline rush)could only afford cheap harleys/indians, and in order to make the go as fast as possible would remove anything that didn't make the bike go faster, stop quicker, or turn better. It's 'Minimalism Biking'. Streetfighters are really just this generations 'bobbers', tho minus the post traumatic stress and VD... :P
Nice bike. The music... why? Couldn't you have had a more fitting soundtack? Something that rocks perhaps? I'm gonna have to listen to the Dwarves now to get that nonsense out of my head. Good bike though. Ride safely. Get some new music.
if you knew about bikes you would know that most bobbers are jap bikes. and most bobbers and choppers back in the day were mainly built out of jap bikes because they were cheaper to build than say a harley. get a clue before you speak leamonhead!
Bobbers used to be stripped down ex-military motorcycles that vets used to race with. They would cut off the fenders and everything else that was dead weight and they would ride the shit out of it... that the term bobber nowadays is used for every single bike just because it sounds good doesn't make it a bobber...
No need to mention that you should get your facts right before pointing someone else on theirs
for the most part your right but alot of the time they only used peices of jap bikes forks tank ect... but the engine was harley an alot of bobbers were sportsters i know its not my argument but i cant let u pick on somone wen u were wrong too
i know rice burners an shit i actully own an 82 jus like ur but its original u couldn't get the orginal air box back in could ya i did but it was realy hard
pretty moto,,,take out the tachometers,,please...

Bobbers are a style of bike not a nationality. Lack of class is using words like rice grinders.
