You mean: "bobber solo seat ideas needed along with pics" ....

-Did you cut the frame or rear any?
-Did you bring the mounting points on the seat in any? Mine are a bit too wide. I'll take & show you what I mean.

i didnt modify the bike frame at all with the exception of welding the spring perches on.

there she is! the fugly duck

Hey - I needed a good one for my first post, and you just handed it to me. I recently acquired a 650C of my own that I was planning a bobber project with - and my intention was black and copper like yours. I'd be very interested to know where you found that seat and tank.

cormier1989 · « **Reply #104 on:** June 25, 2009, 09:30:46 PM »

i got my tank, seat and seat springs off of ebay. I used threaded couplings with machine thread to mount my tank. Drilled a hole in the backbone and welded them in place. The seat is by ultima, and my springs are from justified deffiance.

The_Crippler · « **Reply #105 on:** June 26, 2009, 08:40:27 AM »

What model/size tank is it?

Also, I looked at your other thread about mounting the seat...do you have any other pictures that show it attached? I see that you used some cotter pins on the springs, but I couldn't quite tell from those pics how they all went together on the back.

cormier1989 · « **Reply #106 on:** June 27, 2009, 09:04:55 AM »

ill try to get some more pics up. I have to get my friends to take the pics for me because i dont have a camera.

cormier1989 · « **Reply #107 on:** June 27, 2009, 09:06:20 AM »

turned out pretty good. wasnt there supposed to be some copper can on that thing? and is that big disk a gigantic mirror or does the picture just make it look that way? Fender look pretty natural on there.

fdbrat · « **Reply #110 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:31:08 PM »

The disk is a big ol mirror. I can see god in that thing. haha. Yeah I am going to cram all the wires in to the copper can sooner or latter. Yes I do love the fender.

I saw Bob Davidson out and about today

Since someone posted a Harley, I thought it safe to post my newest bobber (and yes it's a Yamaha) but it has the look I was after on the original CB650.

How much of a stretch do you have on that XS chopper? I'd like to see a side view. That Harley... wow... poor bike.

cormier1989 · « **Reply #114 on:** July 08, 2009, 03:25:02 PM »

Here's the latest version of my CB550K...still tons of work to be done but it's getting there (sorry for the crappy pic): It's not as "squatty" as it looks in the photo. I'll try to update the posts in the "build" thread I have soon. here's the thread: http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=42338.0
