  • Badass Bobber Build - Honda Shadow bobber kit from Blue Collar Bobbers
    In this video I take a detour from my normal content and work on a totally different build. I take a Blue Collar Bobber kit and install it on my Honda Shadow Aero 750, and make it a little more Badass. Custom Honda Shadow, Customer Bobber, Motorcycle Build.

    Man, when you pulled that bike out I thought, "What the f---! He's gone mess it up?! That bike is sweet!"
    Well, it's it's BAD A--, after! Well done!
    Very cool that you include your son in some of your projects. Doing thing like that, is going to be wonderful memories for him with his Dad as he grows up!
    Great job Sir!

    First thing I thought when I saw the build in the daylight was "that's nice, but, damn, he needs to get rid of those footboards", and then, you said it.

      Thanks for the kind words, the boys where around that whole weekend, had a few moments like that, but the camera wasn't rolling. There are actually around a lot, and I have to edit them out of the videos some times, as my wife is not real comfortable having them on camera, but this time I told her I really wanted to keep that little clip in and she agreed.

    Just a quick one, when installing grips, just spray 2 times water inside the grip and it will slidee on like a dream, after that just leave overnight,, or use heatgun to dry. done mine, holds well.

    Nice Video. I've converted my Shadow Saber and it looks great. The only issue I had was the drag bar handle bar would turn down even when I tightened the brackets evenly. I had to insert some star washers into the mounting brackets to hold the bars since the bars are smooth. How about your experience with this topic?

    • @FacilityD20

    Awesome job and super helpful video. I have a 2004 as well (even have the same mustang seat) and have been planning on getting the same blue collar bobber kit. I’m just torn because it’s actually so comfortable for long rides as is. How have you been finding it after riding it for a while now?

    • @FacilityD20

      No it made very little difference to steering at all. The biggest difference I found with the whole build is that it made the back end a lot lighter and it was noticeable when driving

    Idk. The original looked mint and could carry your lady (or man), great for long hauls. The bobber though is great if you don't do those Long runs, no passenger and definately lighter. Looks great both ways.

    • @FacilityD20
      @FacilityD20  ปีที่แล้ว

      Wife is terrified and won't get one with me anyway haha, and I only go on short runs. Wouldn't be comfortable for long hauls, mostly due to the lack of windshield. The seat however is very comfortable surprisingly.

    One thing is you pay 3-4k for the motorcycle stock, you put 3-4k and more in it to achieve this, with that kind of money you could just buy a freakin better bobber stock, not a 750 1991 Honda shadow, I'm not judging I'm just saying, I'm in this situation right now and I could get a triumph bobber way more healthy with this money know what I mean, imagine if that 1991 shadow just die on you and you have to put 4-5k to repair it after. It's unviable in a way if you don't have alot of money and just want a unique bike.
