Well, I'm sure there are many versions. Here is a picture of a sweet example. I am planning to get a project bike and make a Bobber myself. Here is what I would do to yours:

1. remove front fender
2. chop/lower the rear and get smaller seat
3. get smaller handlebars
4. new tires (fat as you can get away with)
5. paint that motor black
6. repaint gas tank and side covers

Have fun:cheer:

Doncha end up with a stripe of dirt / mud / grime on your back from no fender?

Yep...the price of coolness...

Yes, if you ride it in the rain, dirt, or mud. I had a Triumph Bobber back in late 70's. Never had a problem. However, Mcdroid is right...the price of coolness!

That bike has alot of corrosion. Thats why it might be just easier to paint it. Just my opinion. Looks like a fun project. Darn it, now you got me wanting to find a project bike now.

Shoot - I'm LIVING for a project!

Hence my madness..

But.. a ride through Bouquet Canyon tomorrow will chill me out!

Have a great weekend!

Hey JPinLA, what kind of retail establishment might carry the Aluminum Jelly cleaner which you speak so highly of?

Welcome aboard! Here's a good place to find your book:
