I just bought a 09 Harley Davidson Sportster 883 and im making it into my first chopper, you gave me a few good ideas thanks my brother 🙏 💯💎💪🙏

[@yxngkuya]

What’s the seat from? I’m having a hard time finding seats in that color for my 05 883! Great video!

[@aaharris47]

This is so simple and yet the whole vibe of the bike changed. Kudos. Great mini-build! Did you seal the outside of the tank?

[@twopencemoto4759]

Thank you! Yes, I sealed the tank with a few coats of clear coat to seal it from rusting.

[@kennethnolla9534]

@@twopencemoto4759what was the stuff you sprayed to take off the original paint on the tank?

[@단풍-t4l]

Wow!! Awesome!!

[@Marceldbd]

Nice! Did you get the tall or short sissy bar? Bike is looking great

[@dan1769]

Impressive...Nice

[@user-xd8bp6du3m]

Would stock cables fit for the same size bars used in the video?

[@twopencemoto4759]

Yes, I just had to use smaller (2" risers)

[@ronskelton8742]

Sweet

[@alex_rodriguez777]

I was always under the impression you had to remove those rear fender strut covers in order to run the Prism sissy bar? Did you have to use longer bolts?

[@jimmansi1187]

Sweet bike, nice job, love the mods, Sportsters are awesome!

[@twopencemoto4759]

Thank you! Sporty's are super fun!

[@twopencemoto4759]

Thank you!

[@bbbla76]

Super clean

[@wayneshancock2520]

Hi bro , glad to find your channel, your videos are well done. Did you have to re jet the carb when adding the the new pipes ? Does it still have the stock CV carb on it ? Thank you.

[@GeemailMailboxx]

Now it looks like the bike of a distinguished gentleman. 🎩👞 jolly good day to you sir. 🤭

[@twopencemoto4759]

Thank you!

[@linodisla3963]

Did have to drained the brake oil from the break line or was not necessary?

[@brianharrington4400]

Beautiful bike I'd buy that in a minute

[@twopencemoto4759]

Thank you!

[@ShOcKtHeSyStEm527]

Fantastic video man. What seat is that though. I didn’t see it on your parts list

[@twopencemoto4759]

I actually had my upholstery guy reshape the stock seat and recover it in leather.

[@VM-ro7gj]

Hey man, i just ordered a sissy bar from prism and i was wondering, is that the tall or short sissy bar?

[@artygigi2861]

what kind of style is this considered to be? a bobber? i’m relatively new to motorcycles and i haven’t got my license quite yet but this is something I dream of having but i just don’t have a clue what to research about. any help would be great.

[@twopencemoto4759]

Hi, this is sort of a bobber. Minimalistic & bare bones. Although a cafe racer is sort of the same idea but a different riding style. There's no wrong style, just whatever speaks to you.

[@artygigi2861]

@@twopencemoto4759 thanks a bunch! im so motivated!

[@guitarstreet111]

hey bro where I can get that seat ?

[@twopencemoto4759]

Well I had my upholstery guy re shape & recover my old seat. BUT, check out the guys at PRISM Supply. They make a brown seat like that for a Sportster that looks even better!

[@maxspicer9619]

White walls?👀

[@ngurah85]

Change the air filter into smaller ones, it would make more custom look.

[@jojo-zs7bj]

How tall is that sissy bar?

[@HDkillerstar]

What size bars are those?

[@alex_rodriguez777]

Hey man, no chance you still have the original 4” risers?

[@twopencemoto4759]

I don't unfortunately.

[@edachaon]

where did you get the riser and the relocated speedo from

[@connorchops710]

What seat is that????

[@twopencemoto4759]

Its from the guys at PRISM Motorcycles

[@the.odd.society]

Is that a prism seat as well?

[@twopencemoto4759]

It was not a prism seat but I had my upholstery guy shape this one to look like the prism seat,

[@ceec6923]

What kind of grips ?

[@twopencemoto4759]

Vans gum grips. (Sorry for the late reply)

[@stevechung12]

Did you needed to extend the cables?

[@twopencemoto4759]

Fortunately when I changed the 4" risers to 2" risers it accommodated the new bars.

[@blackeagle9774]

where did you buy the seat or is it custom made?

[@twopencemoto4759]

I have an upholstery guy who re shaped and re covered the original seat.

[@stefaniarivers7414]

I wonder how much money these motorcycles go for, been searching on google but no luck finding a beauty :/

[@zach-tz8re]

why do you replace the headlight?

[@dRuMmiNLikEcRaZy]

I want one

[@twopencemoto4759]

We can make that happen!

[@plibt707]

What seat is that?

[@cadillacsmith5339]

Seat?

[@twopencemoto4759]

I have an upholstery guy who recovered & reshaped the original for me.

[@mml1224]

[@ShovelheadMatt]

[@Smallworldcycles]
