So today I picked up my platform for my bobber
1983 Yamaha Maxim 650
14kmi
I also got my motorcycle permit today. So first step is to get it on the road and start riding!
nice start!!! subbed:)
and i take my road test july 20th, super excited lol, whats your plans for this bobber??
hardtail and suicide shift!!!
I vote soft tail.
Can’t wait to see how this turns out dude. Thinking about getting my license next summer. Gonna buy something old a shit to work on too.
I will be following this one. I want to build a budget bobber soon myself. Good luck Nick
I love the soft tail. Those are the stock rims just with white wall? Looks awesome.
subscribed, i vote soft tail.
nice! i had a XJ650J when i was 16, fun bike and good power looks in better shape then the one i had.
soft tail.
soft tail , looks great in those pics
I think I’m gonna do softball to start. Then eventually go hard tail.
Yes those are stock wheels with whitewall tires. The only thing about the softtail one I posted is that someone did a wheel conversion on it. It basically has 2 back wheels on it so that the front is wider, which I would not do
Progress may be kinda slow on this one. I don’t have a place to work on it right now.
More hardtail inspiration…
Soft tail.
I’m not really a fan of classic bikes (if I ever got a bike it would be a crotch rocket), but bobbers are pretty dang sweet.
so the idea here is to make a Jap bike look like a Harley?
No
here’s some more ideas for you, all from the same guy on one of the boards in NC… i say go hard tail
