    Very Nice Clean Period Build ! Excellent execution , everything you need and nothing else . I like the Correct floor boards yet a mousetrap setup for easier riding , no out of place looking modern parts used . Cool idea on the headlight wish I had thought of that before ! Excellent Job ! A true Bobber .👍👍

    Oh my God, I'm in LOVE! This is fooking BEAUTIFUL! Cries out for a jockey shifter, imho. The entire front end is just sublime,; couldn't be any prettier. Oh, Lord, this is just too sexy for words. The lines are ideal in every way. Very well done, gentlemen. Dammit, son!

    Magnificent build. If you enjoy riding it as much as I do looking at it then it will be worn out in a short amount of time. Very well done.

    The frame is a 41-46 knucklehead frame. The fork is a WL 45 which has a 7/8" stem vs the big twin 1" stem. We use a neck cup conversion kit to mate the two.

    No speedo? I guess you just wet your finger and stick it up in the air in order to judge how fast you're going. You gotta love old school. 😃

    Too bad the butchered a set of original hard to find tanks... WL springer lowers bike a bit had one on a pan/shovel gotta use the thru the frame exhaust or you'll crunch pipes... nice bike needs a suicide shift though IMO

    • @709cycles
      @709cycles  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah. Actually we wouldn't butcher a set of cherry or decent original tanks. These were Ebay bondo specials that were pretty rough.Once you cut the back off, they are easy to work the dents and require a minimum of filler to get them straight. The repro WR tanks have come down in price but need mods to clear the heads on overhead valve motors. Easier than narrowing big twin tanks though. I think 45parts.eu has WR tanks for big twin motors but I haven't seen a set yet.

    • @59wargear
      @59wargear 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      709cycles No problem!I had a set of 1940 tanks someone filled a biffed up right side with brazing rod weighed a ton so I can relate ! Bikes a class act no doubt!
