So impressed with how you casually talk about modifying and building parts.

Well I've been doing it for a while, I'd hope I know what I'm talking about 😁

Watched the whole playlist of your bobber adventures and it was actually very entertaining and I learned stuff. Thanks for the content!

Thanks! I try to make videos that are a little learning, a little entertaining, and a little of whatever else. Glad you liked them!

Love these videos. Many thanks. And a hello from Sussex in England.

Tell me your bike has been sitting a while without telling me (shows a metal scrap pile blocking it in). LOL. Cool switchback lights. Almost bike riding weather. Stay safe out there and keep the rubber down.

Thanks for sharing your story. I also have an 88 xv1100. I suspect i have a rusty reserve fuel tank. Your copper coil piping gives me ideas. Did you have to cap off the vent line (beside the main fuel line) under the main tank? And did you need to lightly flare the ends of the copper pipe to prevent leaks?

@EvanWells07

For the vent I just capped it since there is no reserve tank to vent anymore. On the copper line, I did give the ends the slightest amount of flare, but since there is no pressure on this side of the lines, it was more for my own piece of mind. Thanks for watching!

@@EvanWells07 aahh, i get it. Fuel at the copper tube is being pulled rather than pressured. Thanks!

@samng3958 yep, no pressure. I still put a little tiny bit of a bump in the line just in case vibration or something would move it.

How did you fasten your seat down?

The front of the seat (hinge) bolts to the gas tank mount. The rear is on the springs.

So basically I’m fucked ahha if I don’t weld, the back fender is gonna be a bitch! The rest looks fairly simple

Lol you will need to do some welding if you want it all clean looking, but there are plenty out there that just chop it all up and leave it. Maybe a good time to get a welder and start practicing! The rest is fairly straight forward stuff. Nothing too crazy.
