Building a bobber on a budget Episode 6 - Mint Customs

[@jay_behr]

I'm not just saying this but I can't recall the last time I liked a build channel as much ... great personalities, nice work, and a genuine understanding of what it takes to make a business out of one's pleasures ... I've also decided that, if I ever get decent treatments for my spinal injuries enough to ride again, that I'm going to switch from litre sports bikes to a bobber ... albeit I might have a GS thou bobber ... I've seen a GS engine in an over-raked chopper frame to give a sort of bobber-ish stance ... it belonged to one of the senior guys at BSH, decades back ... anyhoo, loved the build, loved the channel, subscribed, liked, worshipped, sacrificed a goat on, etc. etc.

Black rims/all black tires with that paint job on the gas tank flow and looks awesome! Smooth looking build!

[@gmb5141]

Really mean! 👍 Thanks for letting us disturbing your plans. 😂 Was fun to see a concept-free build getting to a bike looking like having a concept the whole time. 😉 Can't wait for more. Ride hard but safe! 🤘

[@maxbritain1380]

[@michaelmiller9966]

Nice Bike

[@dumbwaiter3644]

Love the channel guys.

[@tonykeast9966]

That's been a bloody brilliant series. Slick video style and a sick little build. Mint customs is a quality riot! I've pissed myself laughing at every gag, but the bike is seriously good. Nice work lads 👌

[@auggment]

really enjoy the times. Thanks

[@Wes5501]

I love the bike....but would love it more with the black tank!

[@ParryBrothers]

Yeah same! shame the votes went the other way

[@motorcyclegarage2307]

[@hamidbouneghar635]

Really nice bike all best for future. Hi Parry

[@MilitaryCombatNetwork]

Bike looks sick 👌🏻 been a good series to watch

[@EricJ0hansson]

Wait... So what are your normal jobs if not this?

[@ParryBrothers]

🤣 boring day jobs…

[@EricJ0hansson]

@@ParryBrothers Accountants and lawyers the lot of you?

[@ParryBrothers]

@@EricJ0hansson nah just mechanics and electricians haha

[@kurtpeil8433]

I paid about the same for a stock bike 🤣🤣🤣 well done it looks "mint" this exhaust you tried on look really good probably would need the front exhaust little bit longer so it drops just behind the rear one (I know voting is finished lol) but nevertheless amazing achievements from parts laying around....👊

[@ParryBrothers]

Always like to hear what you think even if there is no voting haha 👍

[@TerryGunnell12]

Gave up on the rear fender and bar lol

[@StraightLineCycles]

Sweeeeet!

[@matthewmason7287]

This was an amerson series and I enjoyed watching it but in my opinion I would have done the foot pegs with brass grips and the black gas tank instead

[@vwdave84]

Liked and subscribed! The bike looks amazing 👏 I have a bit of a project on! My dad sadly passed away recently and I've inherited his sad and tired commuter bike (gpz500s) so before he died I said I'd do something amazing with it and my plan is to do a tribute bobber and he totally approved as he loved bobbers and always wanted a harley... anyway I've got myself a kawasaki en500 frame but my question to you is would you be interested in chopping it and welding up a hardtail for us? If so what sort of cost are we looking at? And if not could you please point me in the right direction? Many thanks love your work keep it up 👍

[@8BillyRay]

I have your drag bike what did you run it on? Cheers Paul

[@VivianoBarrientos]

Where donai get a rear tire like that

[@liamdixon8163]

Absofuckinglutly brilliant and I’d happily pay 6k for the bike …..if I wanted another well done chaps 💙🙏

[@paddy5141]

Building a bobber on a budget it’s a hard work (you need to be very creative)

[@rhyspritchard8766]

is it for sale? 😅 great work 🎉

[@ParryBrothers]

It’s sold 🤙🏻

[@bikerbrinrac]

That's a cool looking bike 😎🏍️🤘 Ps I'd sell that for $10k.

[@heli-man-]

If I brought this first I would fix the seat so your not falling of the back then sort out the stupid idea of no rear mud guard who wants to go for a good ride out and get their back and butt covered in muddy spray from the road.

[@xl5006]

add to that , slipping off the seat and burning youre arce on that tyre, can not understand the current fashion to have a set up like that. its dangerous.

[@MINTCUSTOM5]

I think there is a rear mudguard for this build that's going on at some point. By current trend do you mean from the 1950's ?😂😂😂👍👍👍

[@xl5006]

@@MINTCUSTOM5 no, i said current fashion, i.e seems to have come about in the last few years.

[@MINTCUSTOM5]

@@xl5006 perhaps you've only just started noticing it? I agree that it's dangerous and a serious threat to the crown jewels 😳 but hey motorcycles are...... in all the years I've run them like that I've been very lucky not to 😫

[@elainezzz]

only 6 grand for that?? dont undersell yourself!

[@yngvardharjo3704]

budget my ass .

[@MINTCUSTOM5]

apparently about £50 in King's Cross Station 😂😂😂

[@markleeming3767]

This series has been great! Fuelling my plans, for my first build. Do you have a list of the parts,well the main parts, frame, engine, forks. It's a lot of research so if you can help 😁😁.its just the look in aiming for.
