Boneshaker Part 2: Great British Budget Bobber Build-Off.

Boneshaker Choppers' Final Build: pour yourself a drink, you'll be here for some time while the painted bike is reassembled, wired and gets ready to roll ... and indeed rides off into a liquid sunset at the end. Team Boneshaker: Benny (black hat), Rob (green hat), Scot (quiff), Punch (Red hat) and Ian (black jacket). Bike's new owner, Spindle, provided the lunch and refreshments (flesh coloured hat), while Vikki provided the Riverdance floorshow. This was an American-V production, shot by the idiot who didn't realise he was wider than the aluminium bike at the back.

AmericanVUK, I was wondering, since the bike loses weight, it´s fair to think it would increase its autonomy, right? I´m thinking of building my Sportster "frankenstein" using a flyrite frame, and a small 2.25 to 2.4 gallon tank, do you have any data telling how much autonomy we are able to gain? I´m just worried about enviroment issues :-), by the way, at 07:13 a guy show his bare ass to the camera, that was nasty.

Presume you mean fuel economy. They are lighter, and the 883s perform a lot better than when dragging a Harley swing-arm frame around, but there are no figures that I know of relating to fuel economy. They should drink less: it'd depend on what gearing you fitted and how you rode it.

there made too order ... so silly

[AmericanVUK]

Course they are - all custom bikes are. If you're suggesting they're all the same though, you'd be wrong: they have a common frame and motor, but the details beyond that change with each bike.

If your problem, however, is that they're professionally built, so what? Just as long as they are built, are safe, and realise the owner's desires.

I'm seriously thinking of learning how to build a chopper. I'm sure learning to build the first will take TIME !!!

Is it easier from there on out? What advice would you give for a first time build?

[AmericanVUK]

Measure twice, cut once. Spend a bit of time sitting back and looking at it. Mock things up before committing to major decisions. Take advice from people who have finished their own builds: ignore those who haven't.

The major components sort out the mechanics, but the wiring, plumbing and controls make it work. They'll take the longest time, and make the cleanest bike look scruffy if not thought through.

And don't rush it ... but don't procrastinate either or it'll never be built
