August 25 2021- Today I start the disassembly of the Honda shadow and get it prepped for the hardtail! Watch me do stuff and hopefully not mess up!
“A bobber, originally called a 'bob-job' from the 1930s through 1990s, is a style of custom motorcycle. The typical construction includes stripping excess bodywork from a motorcycle; removing the front fender, and shortening the rear fender, which is "bobbed" (as in bob-tail), and all superfluous parts removed to reduce weight.”

Starting my teardown tomorrow. Thanks for this!

yo man, following you on the build! we got the same bike, i just got some clip on bars but was wondering if you struggled with putting on the starter switch/ throttle assembly ?
i had initially inverted my bars but had to put em back to normal since i couldn't put on the switch assembly right and it wasnt allowing the throttle to return. wondering if you had that issue with clip ons? thanks man

It took awhile and was very tricky but it did end up fitting. I used the same throttle sleeve that came stock with the bars. Did you check to see if the return cable was in the slot? Im not sure haha
