2001 Yamaha V-Star 650 bobber

This started out as a stock v-star classic. It took around a month of late nights to get to this point. I still need to make a exhaust for it and get some tires. this was an extremely low budget build for those who think you have to spend a ton of money for a kick ass little scoot.

still another wannabe harley

[texomathunder]

@deathtrap68 actually its not a wannabe harley, just a cool metric bobber that I built for less than $600. the bike costed about $2000. I own a Harley so it woul be stupid to build a wanna be when I ride one everyday

This bike is sick. Have you ever done this before? I would like to know if you sanded all your parts down before you painted them. Nice job on everything.

[texomathunder]

@clb031106 Yes this was my first. and yes i sanded all the parts but not to the metal. painted with rattle can industrial flat black

where did you get your rear fender, or did you make that yourself as well? Blue collar bobbers has one but I like the higher cut off of yours.

[texomathunder]

@swtchbldsmphny this is the front fender turned around and mounted as the rear.it does take some cutting to get it to this stage.

[CEOmr1914]

@teyacapan Rejet your bike is what ive seen online

[CTEngel85]

Awesome looking bobber, man. It's almost exactly what i'd want mine to look like. I'm just getting into biking, but this is pretty much what i'd like. Great job!

Looks good, but why go to all that rtrouble and leave the frame stickers, reflectors on it.

Lose the stock handle bar control boxes, get a lower tree from a custom and shave the fork legs and it would kick even more ass.

[OpusMagisterMedia]

why would a 650 have drum brakes rear ?? strange

[crazygreg77]

DUDE kuto's GREAT JOB!!! looks wonderfull i just love how punks get on here

talking shit about how metric bobbers are "wanna bee" harleys. Man don't they just wish they could ride im sure at there point in life they would ride a scooter LMAO good job dude looks nice ONE question. who made your custom seat? looks great and what am i looking at price wise as i myself am building a custom bob

[teyacapan]
