I found this video while fantasizing about bobbing my shadow but I gotta say the brotherhood and love in this video is just fantastic, I love the McTwisty.
Thank you guys I have already watched your videos 1000 times I wanted to build a bike like this but in Switzerland the laws are really pain in the ass .. I bought a harley since my inspiration thanks
I have an '03 shadow given to me by my aunt when my stepfather passed and I haven't been able to get it titled and registered in california. I keep thinking about a custom build from it. I know my stepfather would approve.
Nice ride sir! Love it! BTW: old biker superstition- no green bikes. Why? WW2 dispatch riders road army green bikes and snipers would shoot them knowing that they carried information. So you would find a dead soldier next to a green bike. So... no green bikes. This superstition has faded since WW2, thank goodness. Stay safe, keep your head on a swivel and the shiny side up!
I like these oriental cats and the creativity they put into their bikes. They may not know this but way back in the seventies in San Francisco we used to hit up the Chinese bikers for parts and tips for our KZs. They were a solid bunch of guys. Wasn’t much foolish racism back then, everyone mostly got along. Love that pipe set.
@@djay6651 dude I just finished that plus the front blinkers and took me over a week cus I gave up a few times lol. Really need that walkthrough for the rest haha
Looks great! I just started my first bobber built too from my 07 vulcan 1500 classic, I don't have a welder so things are pretty tricky but, its looking awesome so far. I like how you implemented the rear seat, I've noticed hardly anyone has a year seat on their bobbers, I was looking for some ideas so thanks!
Nice bike! I too have a 01 vlx bobber. The only thing I hate about my bobber is the power... wish it is a 1200cc... but in town bike is perfect!! Shout out from Fresno....
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! You did a great job customizing your Shadow! I own a big Harley but often dream of having a bobber. I would like to have a bike that is water cooled so Honda is looking pretty good. The reliability of the brand is nice too.
You did a fantastic job on this build. Bike looks bitchin man. Sounding great. You have a nice brother to give you a bike. Take care of that beauty and ride safe. Happy trails.
i love it even more bcs he got it from his brother its always nice when a bike has a story
Right?
Agreed
Me to my freakin shadow has been in 2 fires and was owned by a vet 😂
Love this bike because it seems so attainable. It's not gonna win trophies at a show but it looks badass and has so much character.
My general rule for passenger seats, is it should be just comfortable enough that a girlfriend would put up with it, but a wife never would...Lol!
But what if the wife wants to pull up on it?
You ride the touring bike with her...she doesn't touch the chop...

Hi. Your Shadow Vt are to die for. Honda made them .... you made them elegant. drive fast and be careful. Good week.
It's nice to see guys your age doing some cool ass stuff ... Hand built ... you should be proud...
What a great looking bike !
I built one similar to this about 20 years ago & this vid makes me miss it big time.
Thank you guys I have already watched your videos 1000 times I wanted to build a bike like this but in Switzerland the laws are really pain in the ass .. I bought a harley since my inspiration thanks
Great job V.
You inspire me to get my shit together and build me Bubber. I am 61
Its never too later.
I live in Monterey hope to see you on the road.

This is what motorcycling is all about
Badass,makes u feel good when u do it yourself and not buy it custom,y'all do great work keep it up
Outstanding first effort. I love it! I also love that it has a story to it that connects you and Vu.
tbh one of my favorite bikes ever just from this one video.
I actually hella dig that passenger seat. Chunky look with the Honda logo gives it a sporty retro vibe.
Good Stuff....maybe you can call those pipes "twist and shout"!
Twist and shout, definitely. PEACE
I'd go with "Twisted Sister" exhaust, since only one is twisted.
Nice job dude, those little 600's are killer,bulletproof,dependable and cheap insurance....why not*****
Beautiful Bike 👍👌😃 & good Video 👌👏👏👏👏😎🤘🤘🤘
Love that exhaust! Love the bars. Love the seat. Love the tail. Love it all accept the rear seat and sissy bar but that's just me
Man I just got a 2003 Honda shadow like that and I’m planning on doing a bobber style with ..glad I came across the video
Well you did it right Man, beautiful ride, the essence of bobbing and chopping bikes.
After you sorted out the wiring and tidied all that up you will have one nice bike. Impressive.
Nice ride sir!
Love it!

Stay safe, keep your head on a swivel and the shiny side up!
I'm a Harley Man but you guys have put together some nice bobbers from other bikes Nice
Keep it between the mustard and mayo and rubber side down GBU
That exhaust looks insane that is sick
Your very lucky to have a good brother who is not greedy for, money and give you bike
Awesome love the green i kinda want the classic honda green on any bike. Looks good
Motorcycle excitement. On a budget. That’s how you do it.
Please do a detailed video about cutting the harness you’ll help so many people out
Yuppp. Was just about to ask that.
Brand new to motorcycles I bought a 2022 Grom. Must feel really good to build your own bike. I’ll try one day. Much love from SoCal. Stay safe.
Nice job young man. This is what it's all about

Beautiful mate. Truly enjoy the shadow builds and yours is bloody gorgeous.
Turned out really nice. Love the color. She sounds sweet...enjoy!
I like this bike, cause it’s got forward controls on it, i don’t think any of the other guys bikes have forwards. Nice video guys. 😎👍👍👍
bro that bike is beautiful i love the style
Nice bike I really like the pipes and the bobber looks awesome
beautiful! honda needs to hire some of the guys on this channel as designers.
Great job! Color looks great, too!
Ur so blessed being a bike lover and living in place with wide long beautiful roads 👍💟💟💟
I'm so glad i stumbled upon this channel! The forest/british green in my eyes just POPS :D Very elegant!
Watching you guyś from south africa 🇿🇦 you bobber buildś its top its amazing 👏 👌 😉
Can't wait for that chopped wiring video. 👍 Been wanting to do that on my bike to get rid of all the mess under the tank lol
Wiring ain't no fun. I had to fix the wiring on my rear blinkers and the taillight. Took the better part of a day to sort out.
@@djay6651 dude I just finished that plus the front blinkers and took me over a week cus I gave up a few times lol. Really need that walkthrough for the rest haha
Greetings from Indonesia🇮🇩
That was cool of your brother to give you that bike. Nice build! :-)
Pipes look cool. I don't think I've ever seen one twist over the other like that.
The color is sooo very cool
Love it! Lane split brother inspires me a lot! Love the crew love the bikes... love the community that you have.
Cool ass bike! Especially now with the new color and bars! I ride with viet in Long Beach, cool dude 🤙🏽
Nice Shadow. Best advice, be patient.
Truly inspiring! Thank you for the vids and good luck out there. Been looking for my bike for months and hopefully my poor ass'll find it soon.
Beautiful build! 🔥
Hell yeah Viet. Good job. Travis's bike is dope too.
Another inspiring video. Looking forward to that wiring video too.

badass bike...sounds and looks good
Like how for this video you asked a lot of questions. From the simple parts on the bike to the DIY stuff.
Sick shadow bro.
I love the sound of that sound as good or better than my 1250 screaming eagle superlow harley
This bike looks badass! 🤙
It looks like they took the fenders off. What is badass about a bike that throws shit all over you when you ride?
Great video, hello from South Dakota. PEACE
Please please do wire video. I just got a 2007 vlx600 and need to change all the lights your video would be probably the biggest help
bike looks sweet
You did a fantastic job on this build. Bike looks bitchin man. Sounding great. You have a nice brother to give you a bike. Take care of that beauty and ride safe. Happy trails.
British Racing Green on a Honda in the style of an American Bobber. I can dig it!
BEAUTIFUL BIKE M8! o7
