This is our honda shadow bobber that we're building. I'm unsuccessfully trying to do a burnout.

I cut off the rear of the bike with the exception of the swingarm. I cut the twin backbone off as well. I replaced it all with a single backbone and simple wishbone connecting to the swingarm. That allowed me to rake the front end out. I cut the mounts off of the shocks and welded them onto the wishbone, so it could just bolt right back to the swingarm. I put a harley sportster tank on it, a bobbed rear fender, a solo seat, and the handlebars are off an old CB750. The headlight is aftermarket. I removed all the gauges and blinkers and re-wired the bike for just the basics. I made a new battery tray to accomodate a lawn tractor battery. I brazed a big boiler valve to the gas tank and coiled soft copper around for the gas line to make it look like part of an old whiskey still. I'm using a chrome whiskey flask for the radiator overflow tank. Right now I'm making forward controls for it.
