Sweet! But I'm moving this later to the Chopper/Bobber picture section. Love to see a tech write up of what you have done.

Dhickman1982, that's a sweet Bobber. Did you buy it used or did you put it together? Spade115 is that your Bobber? And did you assemble it from a kit or did somebody put it together beforehand? And then final question, how much do they run?

Again, Its nice.
Lose the gas cap though....Sure there's other stuff I'd have done differently, but not much differently!!! But that gas cap is going to cause problems.

Amazing how many years ago it was that we'd talk about these bikes getting built and now they're popping up frequently! : )

Same Bike

yeah I talked to the builder online befor I started talking to ez and texas firebolt and several other friends from austin who want me to show up to chop up my blast. lol (Chopper guys apparently its what they do. lol)

Real nice guy said the frame was ordered and he removed the neck gusset a bit (which several people said was sketchy) I know it was for sale for 6500 which is a great price. made his own motor mounts for it.

yeah, i bought the bike from a friend who bought it from the original builder. I don't know a whole lot about what the original builder had to to to get it to the point that it's at, but i can tell you that since the original builder, it's been painted flat black, the seat's been reupholstered.. it's got custom made brass foot pegs and gas cap... i had a new carb put on it 'cause it no longer utilizes the computer, so it ran bad with the factory carb on it.. not really sure what else ha

Hi - my boyfriend in VA has a Blast and for his birthday in March I'd like to have a photographer friend take some artistic photos of one. Would prefer to travel to your location if in the Denver metro or Loveland/Ft Collins area. If interested you can email me at michand@hotmail.com. Thanks for your help!

Great looking bike! What kinda carb did you end up putting on? I had a wrecked blast given to me, so its tear down time and soon to be rebuilt.

This is really a project to be proud of. How many spokes are on that rear wheel?
