We used to sing this song in Germany at our favorite bar in Frankfurt called The Alabama. Thanks D.A.Coe

[@josephschaekel5293]

Great bike I got my 15 in 17 with 19 miles on it . One year later it was bobed and at local bile nights. No one spoke to me when I was around bike . But it sure had a lot of people looking and admiring it when I came out side . Many bikers are good people and don't care less what you ride. JUST AS LONG AS YOU RIDE 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@knightingalesaid]

[@Vanabond]

[@johncarlson8029]

Fantastic job, i wish i had a garage, i'm disabled and fotta make it on what i get. When i come into some cash im gonna meve and have one . Waaaaay cool i want to do one in 500cc

[@Vanabond]

Thanks man! I actually just picked up a new 2019 Yamaha wr250r. Gonna start documenting some stuff and getting some VLOG videos going. Moved to Western Canada and now have a dual sport, things have changed!

[@Vanabond]

Almost everything I did here too you could probably do in a small shed!

[@johncarlson8029]

@@Vanabond still nwed to know what year it was the forks used and i gotta watch the video again for footpeg placement

[@Vanabond]

john carlson it was a 2000 if I recall? Pretty much the same from the 80s to like 2002, bike barely changed. Had forward foot pegs, I’m 6’1 and I fit, it was small but ridable

[@zrodzach8142]

Great video Man

[@albertocuellar691]

Awesome video

[@87ricer]

Awesome build

[@evergreendreaming6130]

Great build

[@Vanabond]

Thanks! It was fun, no longer have it though

[@myleshann6577]

Did you just cut the muffler off and straight pipe it? To make it louder I would assume

[@Vanabond]

Myles Hann its been straight piped and rejetted

[@3xplorercr2zy]

Where do you get the steel for fabricating parts like bobber seat mounting brackets or rear fender mounting brackets and supports?

[@Vanabond]

Hien Hoang Check for local steel places, for the most part I just used stuff that was laying around, but it’s all pretty readily available at lots of different places

[@That_clean_Dodge__]

What did you jet ur Honda with ? I want to straight pipe mine and take the intake off eventually. can I run stock jets with just straight pipe?

[@Vanabond]

You’d probably be running too lean, I don’t recall exactly, I just bought a mix of jets off of some website. You can find information on your elevation and would work best for yea

[@3xplorercr2zy]

Can I also just get a bobber style rest fender and taillight kit and bobber seat without doing all this other stuff?

[@Vanabond]

Hien Hoang for sure, i didnt run a rear fender, but its all pretty simple stuff

[@3xplorercr2zy]

EuroMotive Garage sweet thanks man. I got a 250 rebel that I want to bobber. Do you know if I can use the stock rear shocks? And for the bobber seat do I just bolt it on over the existing screw holes or do I got to drill new new ones?

[@ciorobeavax4109]

Does it have any baffles inside the exhaust ?

[@Vanabond]

no, it was straight through

[@raulbatresmejia7685]

Amigo como hago para pasar de dos carburadores a uno, mi moto es 250cc y es la copia de la Honda rebel y quiero ponerle un solo carburador. Saludos desde El Salvador.

[@josephschaekel5293]

It's a usa thing , single carbs are not available any where . You can get single intakes off ebay. Then duel carbs, separate carbs and use right side carb . Must rejet and I believe choke function will have to be deleted or modified .

[@poeter14]

ok but I feel targeted by the song

[@mastersifu388]

do you have to cut the back or just remove it ? i want this bike and i really want to know

[@Vanabond]

The only thing cut on the frame was the rear shock mounts to lower it.

[@mastersifu388]

@@Vanabond oh great! thank you for the reply ! your bikes looks awesome looking forward for something like that :D

[@Vanabond]

master sifu no problem! And thanks haha was a fun project, haven’t had it for a few years now though. My buddy owns it now

[@combatangler6812]

Did you extend the swing arm

[@Vanabond]

MOTO INFIDEL no, only moved the rear shock mounts back 2 inches

[@redlife1176]

What was the reason of moving the shocks? Is this something I'll have to do?

[@rivercityoutlaw7168]

What's this song

[@MADHAVA939]

Wow

[@jm351]

A waste of a perfectly good cycle ! I’ve been building and customizing bikes over 40 years and a fast way to ruin one is to “bob” it. Unpractical , ugly and most of the time unsafe. Only an idiot would butcher a bike thinking their customizing it. Worth more stock.

[@Vanabond]

😂😂 jeesh buddy. You woke up today and chose violence. Only problem is is you’re wrong.
