Thanks..I was actually looking for a springer but didnt like the look of the cheap ones. Wasnt worth the money to put a good one on there since it would be too much money in to it Id never get back. But yeah..the zero bikes was my inspiration.
Riktigt Snyggt gjort! Önska man själv var så kreativ att man kunde lyckas med det! Vill ha en egen Wildstar att bygga om! Men måste börja läsa på lite tror jag! Men en riktigt snygg båge! Keep up the good work! Peace!
Tackar. Hade inga direkta erfarenheter heller. Bara att välja ett stuk du tycker är snyggt. Köp den hoj med de baslinjer du behöver för att få ett så nära önskat resultat som möjligt. Klura ut lösningar för att efterlikna drömhojen. Tex om du behöver ny tanktunnel för att sänka tanken på ramen lr höja alt sänka sadeln, flytta den fram eller bak etc. Många av mina delar har jag behövt snyggt svetsjobb på. Då har jag gjort en handritad ritning på delen o fått den gjord. Kanske 4500kr i bortlämnat metall/svetsjobb totalt. Resten behöver du basverktyg till, som vinkelslip, borr etc. Spackla o slipa innan lack är ju inga konstigheter med lite övning. Kör bah!
Where did you get the speedo and how does it work? the whole front end is a lot like how I want mine, same headlight but I'm gonna go with 4" risers made from Atlas shafting and then drag bars, should look wicked.
@@samiam247 think its a velona daytona speedo. But I dont remember how I connected it. It was a hassle though and I remembered I had to try different connections to get it to work. All Electric though.
Så grym!! Riktigt imponerad av det ni gjöt under sadeln! Har jag aldrig sett innan. Hade dock satt på vanliga fotpinnar, snyggare tycker jag men smaken är som baken
kokkolollo Tackar..vem som helst klarar av det. Det pilliga var att forma leran som man ville ha den. Tog ett tag med koncentration på topp. Jag hade samma tankesätt som du angående fotplattorna när jag först köpte den. Men nu blev de så jävla balla så jag har ändrat mig.
Hey Exit, I love what you did with this bike. I have a 2000 XV1600 that I've imagined much the same idea, but yours is the real deal, and the best I've seen. I want to replace my tank, seat, and fenders with ones like you have here. My rear end is lowered with the adjustable lowering kit and I've been scouring the Internet for parts. Can you, PLEASE, tell me where you got your tank (883 XLH I know, 2 gallon?) but what size and year and how you got it to fi. Also, please,, where did you find the fenders and how much fabrication was neccessary? Beautiful job, my favorite bobber so far.
Thanks buddy..not sure about the size since it was a couple a years ago. Was a 2002 model 883. Think they are a little over 2 gallons. Didnt do anything with the tank but I had to grind away some metal of the upper motor mount bracket for it to fit all the way down. The fender did I found on ebay. Try to search for ribbed rear fender. And maybe add bobber and/or old school. And it was way more advanced work for me to handle so I handed it in to professionals to mount the rear fender. The best $370 ever spent 😄
@@dnartshtuj Thanks for the reply - and the important info. I'd love some more - if you could.... Glad to hear the tank was as simple as you describe. (Of course I imagined much worse.) I think I've seen the ribbed rear fender you might have used on ebay, from Low Brow Customs. Can you tell me what the fender width is and what tire size you have? They have several widths for fenders like that, 4-3/4", 6", and 7"..... And I guess I should ask about the seat, too. I think I'd like to go for something a little bigger, but something closer in size to the old HD WL solo police and military style seats. Have you any suggestions? Thanks again. Richard Z.
@@ZempelProductions the tire is 5". But I had to cut the fender since it was too wide. I dont think they had a size that I wanted so I just bought a wider fender and grinded both sides down equally for the width I wanted. Check out La rosa website for the seat. They may have something u like.
Hey Philip, I SURELY APPRECIATE your help with answers. With cooler weather now, I'm getting back to to my RStar bobber work. And I have another question: At 2:31 your video shows the ignition bracket you're running at the old fuel pump spot. Where did you find such a bracket? Thanks!
Philip.j I am also bobbing my Roadstar. I have been beating my head against the wall trying to get just the right set up for my plate. Where did you get that support arm for your license plate? It looks like something from a Ducati and I love it!
Jim Thomson Here u go buddy, www.cruisercustomizing.com/highway-hawk-rear-tire-license-plate-holder-chrome-fits-22mm-diameter-rear-axles/part/HH-59-0400 Highway Hawk Universal Rear Tire License Plate Holder
philip.j Thanks, friend. I think your bike turned out great and really inspired me to go for it on mine. Thanks for the quick reply too. Keep the rubber side down!
+LionFX Thanks! Do you mean the license plate holder where the turn signals are mounted or do you mean the whole support arm. The license plate holder with the turn signals is made by me. The whole license plate holder arm is bought from cruisercustomizing.com ;)
Did the "flip" in the back (check out roadstarclinic for more info). Don't really know how much that lowered it. And lowered the front with progressive suspension, 2 inches
Riktigt snyggt bygge må jag säga! Funderar på att snickra ihop mig något liknande. Fick du några synpunkter från besiktningen? t ex passagerardyna o fotpinnar?
Jaha. glädjande att höra - då hoppas jag på samma bemötande! :) ytterligare en nyfiken fråga: Vars gömmer du baklyset? är de integrerade i dina blinkers?
Integrerade ja. Både bak samt bromsljuskablar från hojen går till blinkers men bakljuskablarna har en potentiometer monterad på sig där jag ställer ner krämet som gör att de lyser lite svagare. Sen när jag bromsar får blinkers all ström o lyser upp 30% mer.
Man that's a lot of work! I had the same headlight on my Virago chopper it's a classic light. you did a hell of a job on that pan under the seat. where did you hide all the stock wiring?
Nice bike! Only drawback, is you can never have a biker chick riding backseat with you. That is the only downside, other than, that, you are good to go. If you are married, your wife has a great smile on her face about that.
Yes get that overated runs hardly tank off that beautiful garunteed to start and run and never break down beautiful yammie...one thing you did forget though clip on bars !!!! Come on!!! If your gonna slam it slam it!!! Beautiful bike bro ... And I love the metric bikes Harley's ( hardly runs I call em) are great but dam they are getting better but can trust em yet that they'll get ya there
Thanks! Clipon bars wouldnt work since the body position would be way to painful. Its hard to see with no one sitting on the bike but its a BIG and long bobber. I had trouble with back pain with the handlebars in the clip so I had to buy another one with more pullback.
Kevin Edwards my buddy has an xv and has had several issues while the HD I ride has had none. It must suck to be such a hater, its unhealthy man, let it go. Ride what you like and like what you ride but just ride man, just ride. Ride safe.
Looks smooth, minimalistic, tastefully.
very elegant bobber! looks like a luxury ride!
One if the baddest bobbers I've ever seen! I want one
Dale Radjo appreciate it 😊 thanks
The best RS i' ve ever seen:) Amazing job.
thanks
Beautiful job!
Fit and finish very good.
The hand built seat mount/battery cover is very nice too.
+Lucky Dog Thanks
This is insanely good. With a springer it would totally have the Zero look

It's a good idea. It protects the battery and other stuff under there.

Luar biasa kreatif
really a great build! the sporty tank looks awesome.... I especially love your tire choice!...what kind/size are they?
Would you happen to have a write up on this build? I would love to do the same to mine
Great work!
very beautifull.
What are size of tires front and rear? and brand? thanks
