  • i want that back tire so bad lol

  • @bikercc

    Hey mate...that Tyre is actually a painted Whitewall. Used the genuine rubberised Whitewall Tyre Paint bought off ebay and prepared the tyre really well before applying the paint, then left it to dry off the bike for about a good week and a half before applying pressure to the sidewall. Rone

  • looks good, thanks for doing the video it helps alot for everyone else thinking of doing a little bobbing. i'm about to start on my 85 soon... on that pod filter, did you have to up your jets? want to gut that area of the bike too.

  • Thanks man, much appreciated. Yeah, for some reason I thought it would be fun to document the build and share it. After all, I got a few tips from other builds myself.

    As for the carby's, I haven't adjusted the jets as yet but I dare say they will maybe need modifying. It's probably running to lean now. I'm also thinking of moving the battery to just underneath the Pod Filter area too.

    ROne

see all

  • awesome sound

  • Well done, mate. I can appreciate anyone who gets their hands dirty and does it themselves.

  • thats cute.

  • Awesome! I rated all related videos (Honda Rebel 250 'Bobber' Project_Part 1...n) 5 stars! Can you suggest a different simple mechanical upgrade/mod for my Honda Rebel 2006?

  • Less than $300?! Wow..... Thats inspiring, I'm jsut starting to ride, and this looks and sounds GREAT!

  • Hey man,

    Big fan of what you have done with the Rebel. I am currently woorking on bobbing and old Kawasaki kz250. Where did you get your aftermarket spares from? I'm in Vic too so any tips would be much appreciated.

    If I had one criticism of your vids it would probably be that I wish they were longer so I could be more nosy!

  • Hey, I've been checking out the progress of your bobber on some of the Rebel forums. Did you have to rejet the carb when you replaced the exhaust? thanks man.

  • damn thats sick.. is that the stock exhaust on there? if so how did you make it sound like that? i just got a 2001 rebel and am looking to make it into a bobber just like this about how much does it cost? thanks hit me back
