Default My softail bobber

I bought this off of craigslist about a year ago. It was in peices. Got a good deal. Had to change the rims, tires, primary, sprotor, shocks, fender, seat, etc. I powdercoated everything myself except the bars. They wouldnt fit in my oven.

Cool, nice looking bike...I love the heartland struts/seat...you can go from true solo bobber, to real 2 up seat in 4 bolts...good work!

Sweet ride..I had a vstar bobber then left the bobber scene and got a harley. But I'll always appreciate the bobber scene and culture.

Nice bike man....real badass. I love looking at bobbers. I love the open primary, chain conversion and the fenderless fat tire in the front. Good job. One day I will be building a bobber too.

yep looks good, did you find that changing to these wheels it actually lowered the bike at all?
