That looks like its sitting low.. Thats how i like em. Question, did you just take the rear fender off and put on a smaller seat or did you actually chop it at all? I have a bike and im trying to give it the bobber feel but im not trying to cut it up. thanks brother
what a TACO ROCKET . all the esa's are going to love it . if your going to ride a ROLLING CASKET MAKE IT A HARLEY SO YOU CAN AT LEAST DIE IN STYLE,I MEAN JUST THE SOUND OF THESE JUNKERS IS LIKE FINGER NAILS ACROSS A CHALKBOARD, YOUR CHOICE A FAGGOTT TACO ROCKET OR A REAL BIKE A HARLEY OF COARSE
Wanna be Harley? Betcha that Honda starts and runs smoother for longer than any Harley you've got. I ride a CB 750 that I'm gonna stretch and bobber out, nice idea about having the tank stretched a bit, I don't like that gap on mine either. Sweet ride dude, especially for having done it at home.
@rwhdragonmaster I don't think he want it to be a harley you fukin douch if everybody rode harleys then nobody would want them thats exactly why I ride hondas
What year is this bike? I like it!!! I've been contemplating building a bobber. I like the honda shadows but some of them have the dual shocks. I see that this one has the mono shock.... So... Which year is this?
1. Nice work. I'm currently modifying my honda vlx into a bobber. Flat black right now. drag bars right now. adding 6in risers. frame already cut. Did you use reagular bondo to fill cuts?
sweet bobber, clean, love the color, usually see black ones, a nice change. question..did yours have a fuse box between the handle bars stock? i have a 86' that does and wanted to put drag bars on it but didnt know what i would run into relocating it or if you could set it between a set of aftermarket bars.
Saw the vid of this bike running. That completed how badass that thing is. Good job bro! How the fuck did you get it to sound like that? What is that air intake?
did you customize your tank or did it come like that? im talking about how its indented so that the seat cuts into it at the bottom. let me know will you. by the way your bike rocks man looking at it makes me want to do mine similar to it.
@0311Porsha Thanks for the comment ..... A while before I decided to build this I had the tank stretched to fit snug up against the stock seat. When I bought the bike I didn't like the big gap between the seat and tank. I'd rather not have it stretched with this seat but I was building a low dollar bike and the tank isn't cheap.
hey man love ur bike.. i am working on my vlx 600 right now and wanna make it look like urs.just one question where did you put the gas pump and the rest of the wiring... thank you very much
@Hotrodhayabusa That would be sick, plus mainly due to the inspiration of your ill ride and much to my wifes disgust i've just brought a vlx....shot bro!
@jkstdstang Thanks man...Everything is stock. I wanted to make the cheapest bobber I could. The frame was cut and smoothed, check my slide show video.
Hey thanks man....yea my first solo build. Took about 9 months cause I get destracted easy. I actually have it on the lift again doing a little detail work to it. I cut and wrapped the pipes, adding floorboards and shorting some of the cables that I measured wrong.
Got a photobucket account? It's free. I'd love to see pics of the entire transformation. I'm getting ready to do my 92 VLX. Ordering my Keystone bars next week. :-)
I can't even notice...I passed through a shower the other day, of course it sucked but that's to be expected. My next project I will have a few inches of fender.
really sweet bike. how do you like not having a back fender? i'm working on my first project and have been thinking alot about what to do for the back fender.
Since I wanted to mold all the welds I did strip it to the metal so the filler would stick. That was the most time consuming part of the build. (Smoothing the frame)
I know the video sucks ass. I'll be posting a better one after the wife give up the dough. But yes, there is a load of wires and what not. I hide em the best I could. Yes, it a hard tail.
Where did you hide the fuel filter and pump which was under the seat? My 95 has boat load of stuff wedged in there.Fuse box ect. I think i see the shock , but did you hardtail it? I can't see well.
can you expand on how you lowered it,did you shorten the spring?look forward to more video up close at the battery and suspension. WICKED HOT MAN. I was going to bob a maxim 400 but now the vlx is Sweet.
I think if you put a rear fender that was painted the same blue, but only went passed the back of your seat to the top (12 o'clock - exact middle of your tire.(no farther), then it would be SICK! ,,,and keep the front end without one.
I'm decking out a CB750 rigid bobber and in the market for some nice controls. I am a proud owner of the same bars but in black and need some nice chrome controls, are yours your factory controls or after market? Thanks for the time and very nice bike brother!!!
I love how cleaned up it looks under the seat. Where is everything? I read that you said its all there, but it looks like the shock and battery is only there. Any tips on how to hide the wires.
The harness comes down under the front of the seat through the original hole. I turned them down and strapped them together and put what I could under the battery plate I made. The video really sucks so I will see about making a better one this weekend. Again, it's all there...I didn't feel like rewiring the whole bike.
Man anywhere I could. Trust me it's there, I just cleaned it up as much as possible. As you probably already know...metrics have an ass load of wires.
Coo, right now im looking into a 2003 Honda 600 vlx all chrome for 4600, if I can get it down to 3 grand, ill be on my way hopefully riding something this summer.
Thanks efarias04, well its a 2002 VLX 600 Deluxe...I cut the rear section and welded the cross bar for my seat pan then smoothed all the welds on the frame.
Money wise all I purchased was....Chopper Shox seat pan $ 150, white wall tires $ 300, Roland Sands Apes $400, and cables. Of course a few other odds and ends.
no front gaurd, no rear gaurd. defect sticker.
