Hey looking at building a first bike or maybe a second bike with a sports bike as a first. Kinda want a harley engine built up but expensive. And also insurance would be killer. What's a starter recommendation for a drive train.

Would that bike be for sale ?
i found 1999 honda shadow 600 for 800 usd, removed the decal of the tank by sanding down and then repainting, I repainted the frame and removed all rust, put about 20 hours into restoring it, installed custom indicators and levers, total was 1000 usd so 800 usd for bike and 200 for parts and restore and its now the best bike ive owned, have a few panigales and this is now my daily, love it
This bike is absolutely killer and a big motivation for me to get back in the garage. Time to stop dreaming and start doing.

Don't sign up for a welding class. Buy a welder, and learn yourself. KZread has a guide for everything. I bought a super cheap welder and built my bobber with almost no practice LMFAO. A lot of grinding, but it turned out nice.

This is exactly what I'm looking to do a real bobber! Most of us are looking for the OC over inflated price point. Great job again.👍🏼🌞👍🏼
Awsome! So helpful! I bought a Vulcan 800 to do a bobber build with and these resources will really help. Thank you!
By far one of the nicest builds I have seen awesome job
Dude you are an incredible bike builder!! Awesome job!!!!! been watching your builds all morning!!
Great results! Enjoyed your last two builds and currently enjoying the street fighter!
Seriously impressive. Very talented artist to take a bike like that and come up with this Custom Bobber. So clean.
I love inline fours. Great build! You found some nice deals and yes, if you can fab stuff yourself, all the better! Not a fan of wheels with no fender in case of road trash or unexpected rains. But still looks great. Thanks for your video!
this answered so many questions i had about building bikes, good stuff!
I am new here and love this. Great video, great concept! Very honest and forthright series! Cheers!
beautiful job. I love the red and black. Well done!
Loved that build series. Such an awesome looking bike.
Absolutely beautiful build! Thanks for sharing, insight and inspiration. This looks like a $20k + machine! 👍👍👍👍
Yes ya can do it! I built my HD Rigid Evo. All new parts sourced online from various vendors and Ebay put her together in my bedroom (ok I was single then lol) had her inspected for the title/tag for $6312.00 Total and I built new no donor bike. I started with the motor cases and went from there. Ordered a new part every payday and insured I got the scoot I saw in my head. 89" Harley Evolution Big Twin 10:5:1 comp. motor with a decent cam running through a 6 spd tranny in a rigid frame. quick fast and maneuverable for city traffic. Do the work yourself with all the info available online and youtube aint nothing ya cant do with a little patience and practice. Hell I even learned how to weld during this build. Been riding this bike since '08 daily rider don't own a car don't want one

I watched this video multiple times but still watching again yet feeling happy, i live in India where we dont have great bikes, stupid industry has useless bikes. I wish i could have one of this kind. Great inspiration, lovely bike.
nice build.great colour!! the fuel tank looks great. so wish i had the art and skills to make one of these
Awesome Bike, I'm gonna try to do my first build when I save my money , got Covid been outta work in and outta hospital , been ruff. Glad you told me about Tucker I'll gat my parts there when I start.
Had a low point in my life five years ago cost me everything. Lost my lil ironhead but its time to get back in the wind mind and body are clean and sober now so its now time for my soul.
New to the channel . What a great build. Looking forward to more of your work. Have a great day.
Amazing work 👏, after looking at this video I purchased a 1987 shadow 700, can't wait to see how it comes out. pray for me 🙏
Starting on my bob next week this really helped me alot
Nice work! Thanks even more for all the vendor info.
Chapeau. You have talent and taste. You deserve beautiful things in life. Enjoy
So badass. And seems pretty doable. I definitely wanna use your basic template here and do something similar some day soon
That’s a pretty nice bike, depending on when you got that voodoo vintage hardtail I can tell you who built that either myself Michael or David Roy. you definitely did a hell of a job with that bike
I'm grateful that you share your talents with us sir :)
Great bike, great video. You're a talented dude. Respect
Great job brother. Just found your channel. Liked and subscribed. Thanks and God bless you.

Well who is this Tucker character? Sounds like a damn good friend!
I bobbed a VLX600 back in like 2011. I got rear ended at some rail road tracks and the only way to salvage was to cut the rear sub frame off. I got a VTX1300 that I have sitting in my garage but the problem is I tried to put a new air intake on, switched a jet, needle and messed with the A/F mix set screw and now I can't get it to run right even after reverting back. The other problem is that I have a 2020 HD Deluxe sitting next to it that is nearly 1800cc so I am actually hoping to get this VTX out my garage and hoping someone like you that wants to tinker will take it.
Muy buenos consejos. Mi proyecto es una Kawasaki Vulcan 750 del 94. Y si, la estoy llevando al estilo bobber. Manillar lo compré barato. El asciento es artesanal, de cuero genuino. No me salió muy caro. Pinté las llantas y botellas de suspensión con pintura epoxi, y tapas de motor en negro. Le puse gráficas y esta casi lista. Faltan detalles... Saludos desde Mar del Plata, Argentina!!
Wow , maybe I’ll do similar project since I have a garage now ... thanks for sharing
I really love the bike, I’d like to build something for the road and gravel since I live in a rural community
Awesome bike brother--- I enjoyed the video greatly---
looks ace mate i sold my harley needed cheap run about so i just built chop out of an old xl500 come up sweat think ows me 2500 all up

Your so cool man! Love all of your videos.

That bike is awesome, I'm a little big for it because I'm 6' 3" and 300 lbs . I've been thinking about taking a old goldwing and building a big cafe racer
Wow what a beautiful bike you did an outstanding job my friend and those prices are out of this world it’s great to know you can still find a place that doesn’t mark the price up through the roof just because it’s on two wheels. It drives me crazy every time I see the price of motorcycle parts. Take two wheels away and that means you have triple the price smh. Thanks for the video.
I like it! Wanted to hear it run. 👍👍
Nice build bro! I built my bike on the cheap... Craigslist, offerup, and Ebay.
I love this excellent working.
Great build....Excellant. Thumbs Up.
Nice build men, Just doing my own build Yamaha xj650 1982
Outstanding bike man!
My dream is to build motorcycles and lowrider cars. Everytime I see a video like this it makes me want to quit doing construction and driving truck to build bikes and cars. To have these skills and to have an eye for detail and design is the hardest part. The work and building isn't hard at all, it's the details, design and finding parts to make whats in your head come alive. Living in California and having these types of companies everywhere is a major perk to building anything like this. It looks amazing, you did a great job, I'm definitely liking, subscribing and sharing this video. Great fuckin job though, and the FTW brake light is cool as shit.
Bike turned out great I’ve owned several Honda 650 and 750 four engine bikes they are reliable as heck the only thing I found to be any problems is on the 1981 thru 83 models Honda did not upgrade the charging systems to keep the battery charged when running the headlight day and night , so my easy fix was to wire in a on off switch for the headlight and ride daytime with it off if a cop pulled me over I just turned it on for him and acted like I just forgot to flip the switch because I ride the bike with the headlight on mostly at night time after dark on my way home from working in a restaraunt
Love it...bike looks amazing...BRAAAAP
Ive been searching for the perfect bike. This is it. Im going for this!!!!?
Nice details for this build ...
Great Video. Subscribed!
U have a great thing going!
Awesome dude from Nepal 🇳🇵 👏👏👏
Beautiful paint job
Dope AF! really made me wanna get my hands dirty, thanks for the inspiration & fyi the contrast/white balance in your vid is off, really drove me mad for a minute, a decent cell phone will do great in auto mode ✌ had to check a sencond screen
I'm building a custom mini chopper right now. Literally have no idea what im doing im in about 500 bucks right now. Its coming together pretty nice im waiting on my tires to come in so I can finish up the engine mounting and what not make sure its lined up with the rear sproket. Its got a predator 212 its made from some steel tube I had laying around and some parts off a mongoose bike I had. If this one works I might try to make a better one.
Beautiful bike man!!!
Gorgeous!

bike came out super nice
My cancer may be back after two and a half years N. E. D. . If it's back and advanced. I want to put together a bobber and just ride as long as I can before becoming debilitated or death bed ridden. What is the quickest I could put something together like the one in this video ? Cool bike. Peace

You should consider honda shadows, Yamaha virago , Suzuki intruder these bikes are pretty cheap and they have a big bobber community . If time is an issue go with a bike that is popular on the internet so you can get ideas and have your questions answered by a simple Google search . I hope this helped

Love the electronic hide in the oil tank. For the money Id cut me up a fire extinguisher. Weld in a pichweld. Tap it and put brass screws to hold the covers. Didnt mean to armchair build. Just passionate about bikes. Great build!
