Yamaha V Star 1100 Bobber Build Time Lapse

[@clarkcrossley7579]

This was a fun ride mate, I've been in the States for 20 years now and it was very refreshing hearing you explain this build! Bike is beautiful and very clean. Great job!

[@darylj4739]

Great confidence-inspiring video for those a bit nervous of doing this (like me.) I especially enjoyed how you explained setting the pilot mixture, it finally takes the mystery out of it. Thanks a lot.

[@greenietree1865]

Brilliant job! I just bought a Yamaha 650 and you ‘re giving me all sorts of ideas 😁

[@thejerseyj1636]

I've watched a lot of builds, I have a V-star 650 classic that will be bobbed soon. You've given me confidence about the wiring. And now that this video is done I want to tell you that I have never enjoyed a build video as much as this. She turned out sweet ! And I meant what I said about your B GT. Oh! I love them!! Looking forward to your invite, a ride on the Queen Mary 2 will get me there. I'll even by the beer !

[@vinceyorston1019]

Much better. Nicely done. I am making a bobber out of a basketcase 1992 Yamaha XV750. I've had it for 2 years but it is coming along. Thanks for the encouragement.

[@darrendesmond5395]

Lovely. I built one of these a few years ago. Flame tank, whitewalls, copper and black power coated wheels. I wish I’d never sold it!

[@V8SKULLS]

Hello from South Florida, the beautiful machinery looks freaking amazing, just love everything little thing you have done to her. Loving the black and chrome, please make a video of her riding on the road and in the wind. God bless and ride safe. Thanks again for sharing your bike with us all.

[@BerserkerNick]

I had a set of forks that were pitted like that, I used a wire wheel on my drill to get most of it then a wire wheel on my dremel for the tight spots and wiped it down with oven cleaner before applying fresh clear coat, they now look new

[@midnightrider287]

Very nice work. I've just completed a 125 Marauder Baby Bobber as a test run for doing a Virago next.

[@raymondsmith7020]

Great,enjoyed every minute, shame about the handlebars, it looks and sounds much better than it did,thanks for a great vid .

[@joejojo4751]

Like it very much , I think black bars and slash mirrors would look great , well done.

[@nop3noperson]

Ha! That's a brilliant job. I can't believe you would just have a powder coated wheel for that bike just collecting dust. I'd like to see your stock.😃

[@clairebutler1755]

Lovely bike great job! Had to laugh when you tried twice to put in fear with the stand down :)

[@trainbobber03]

Instead of adjusting the pilot mixture, which is what most people do, you might want to consider removing the AIS. The following information is a write up on this removal kit from a website that sells this kit, it explains whats happening with the backfires. The stock Air Induction System (AIS) which introduces fresh air into the hot exhaust stream at the exhaust ports causes un-combusted gasses to ignite creating a backfire (especially during deceleration). With stock, highly baffled exhaust systems, it's difficult to hear. But when installing aftermarket exhaust systems, this backfiring becomes very loud and annoying........Furthermore at thousands of RPMs, the AIS creates a virtual "torch" at the exhaust port, resulting in extremely high temperatures which can quickly cause bluing of Chrome and overheating of Ceramic Pipe coatings Also, during tuning the fresh air introduced by the AIS into the exhaust stream will create an incorrect "lean" AFR (Air to Fuel Ratio) reading which often causes mechanics to over compensate and adjust the AFR to a very rich setting. Nonetheless, here is the link to the website........ www.pacificcoaststar.com/pcs/yamaha_ais_kits.htm?gclid=Cj0KCQiA14WdBhD8ARIsANao07glV-XOvvrdxz9a5t9GUM4zP0U_IMncnpkpcIFTtYTZRlUSigEVKsYaAsZGEALw_wcB

[@sbchport]

Fantastic job on the bike, and the style of your vids. Looking forward to the next project.

[@anthonyscott16]

What??? That is AWESOME!!! Great work man.

[@bronco669]

My son bought me this exact bike for my birthday years ago.. I’ve never ridden Or an I very mechanical inclined.. but after riding with him , I really want to turn my V-star into a bobber.. I love the look.. just have no idea what I’m doing or how to begin

[@glynchivers9519]

[@toniethumbi3491]

the bike is amazing, great job. hope you are okay, my apologies for over stepping, couldn't help but notice your right arm there.

[@CleanNuts]

That’s ok I was wondering when someone would spot it stay tuned for more bobberbuilds

[@toniethumbi3491]

Clean Nuts I most definitely will. Ive been going through your videos, you’d think am prepping for an exam.☺️ Am learning a lot from you, hoping to start working on mine from August

[@timoffreethought580]

Yes ...there's the front fender . Very nice ! Huge improvement from stock . Like it ( subscribed) . See you in the next one .

[@tonymanders5078]

Just watched the build great looking bike better than stock . I hope to start one after Christmas good video 👍

[@lancecrochet3043]

I have a 2003 Yamaha v Star 1100 and it has about 13,000 miles on it I tried to share a picture but I couldn't bring it up it is a sweet bike.

[@ArsalanKhan-lp3fg]

Really good pete it was lovely to see your bike in real life and I’ll definitely be putting my order down once i know when i can get one 👍🏻

[@CleanNuts]

cool stay tuned

[@danny84gee]

Nice bike love the finish on it, do you share the links to where you source your seat pans, rear lights or indicators? Keep it up 👍

[@mauricetaylor6577]

I enjoyed watching I loved the new look of your bike I from HOKIANGA new Zealand 👍🏼

[@CleanNuts]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@mauricetaylor6577]

Awesome bro 👍🏼

[@sean4839]

I have the VStarr 1100. I took my forks from 400 to 1500 including wet sand. Then went back with 220 and carefully "engraved" the lines/brush marks as precisely as possible. Looks like it was done on a lathe

[@brettmcmahon7263]

There a great Base or Platform to start Chopping. Looks great. Keep the Vids coming, hi from Aus.

[@SailorJoe1971]

Love the bike! I just think everyone calling a solo seat bike a bobber has gotten way away from a true bobber. Bobbers are simply taking what you have and taking everything off that is not necessary. Like fenders, signals, mirrors basically stripping it to bare bones and ride.

[@ronjohnson7238]

It's the bike I have . Love the bobber. Would like to have one of each. Super fun to watch the change

[@aldee3018]

you out did yourself,that bike is beautiful.

[@camessary2602]

Wish I could work that fast. Oh, and some people need to forget about semantics. Way too many labels on bikes these days.

[@JMKGarage]

Turned out looking great... nice work!

[@annmurphy17]

I have an identical bike but as i'm in my 60s and riddled with arthritis I can only dream of being able to do that kind of work on it

[@CleanNuts]

Ann Murphy stay strong

[@grezbowman6410]

great video, crackin bike, good job mate, too many people black them out, i love the chrome

[@robertoalvarez5281]

Nice!! What type of slip-on exhausts did you put on your bike? I want to upgrade mine.

[@troeteimarsch]

This is almost exactly the bike I'd want, except for the handlebar. I prefer beach bars. But well done mate ! :D

[@mykindofbabe]

top job.....from a genuine sounding bloke

[@CleanNuts]

Your very kind have you seen my other videos they might be to your taste

[@tomohawk5567]

Ya know I like this bike, I like it very much, I can feel a mid-life crisis coming on. Great video thanks for sharing 👍 you got a new subscriber

[@dondon98]

Im going to own one in 3 days ive purchased one id luv to have help customizing it like this....man! Great job

[@dondon98]

Mine is a 650 black vstar 2009

[@robertshatto2995]

I have a 2009 650 midnight ,raven..,,I like the bobber look,,,I like the mufflers

[@maxenriquegonzales5793]

Nice Job man! I like this bike. And you are right, it really looks great! I am just wondering about the price of the bike and the parts and of course the work, you spent!

[@dennis6707]

That's the look im going for love it where you get the rear fender and mounts

[@richcxx]

That looks great! Nice job.

[@1961fairlane500]

Ok, this is driving me nuts, but your left fork guard is broke. You've probably noticed it. I'm just nit-pickin'!! Great lookin' bike!!! I've been riding an '06 V Star 1100 for ten years and have wanted to bob it, but the wife....

[@CleanNuts]

Yes I Know have you seen the other Bobbers Ive built have a look around my videos

[@colinjeffrey8787]

mint..sweet cool ride man..great video many thanks

[@suchoi61]

Sehr schön gelungen . Würde ich sofort kaufen!!

[@stevelanzon7156]

Nice build. Hopefully starting mine soon

[@tboyz1]

looks awesome great job with eliminating the back fire and those new pipes sound mean liked and subbed cheers :)

[@elroyaston6277]

Looks like Blue Collar Bobber stuff. Did you install a high flow air filter. I didn't see air pods under the tank. Great video. I just picked up a 2009 1100 classic that i will start this process on soon. Stock looks like a bagger without bags.

[@eddyraye5825]

SWEET BUILD... WHAT MORE IS THERE TO SAY...

[@wazhushkmuskrat9907]

great job!! the bike looks fantastic

[@310smoker]

Cool bike 👍. Like that seat

Very nicely done! Good job.

Awesome build, dude!

[@liamdixon8163]

Great looking bike way better than it was 👍👍👍

[@christucker69]

Looks great, good job, my brother 👍😎✌

[@kenolson3072]

Looks great, very cool !

[@kaizaki9148]

That isn't an MOT problem is it: having the reg plate on the left hand side? Mine is in the same place but I didn't know if it was legal in the UK. Thanks, awesome bike!

[@CleanNuts]

I put a full size plate on for mot

[@michaelhaddan1965]

You're a visionary and inspiration~~

[@BigBlock402]

Absolutely beautiful build.

[@gazlough]

Cracking build fella what kind bike lift is that your using

[@CleanNuts]

Big blue

[@AngloSaxon1]

Great video, Great Information, I would love to see you convert a bike like that into a Trike.

[@53iBro]

When you "attack" the front forks and sand paper them down does that remove the chrome and polish the material underneath? I would be interested because I'm not a big fan of chrome and much prefer a more raw look.

[@TechnMoto]

Well done mate

[@raydsilva516]

Nice build. Thought you would mention how you rejetted and balanced the carbs.

[@jrattackk]

If you’re saying he didn’t, then rewatch it lol

[@thespookdeville5112]

Excellent, lots of respect Rodge David Kidderminster UK

[@stevekwall925]

where do you get a lift like that ?You did a wonderful job looks great

[@waynelambert9773]

Really enjoyed watching that video... thanks bud! I'll start to Bob mine now 😎

[@jacob-67tune18]

looks great mate

[@HairyMTB]

Great looking end result

[@joracer1]

Even though i like this vid..... the stock v star in any stock form is a good looking motorcycle.....

[@braknstuf]

Anyone wanting a bolt together chopper should just purchase the catalog from Blue Collar Bobbers, I mean this guy did. Nickle Chrome is the same thing as standard chrome, not sure what your on about with Nickel Chromed....

[@gareths483]

Good vid, can I ask where you bought the Bolton extra bits (seat pan, number plate)?

[@janetgreenslade9281]

Awesome job, absolutely beautiful bike.

[@amateurastronaut5006]

Ya need to ditch the shaft drive and get some tracker bars. Still looks pretty good though.

[@calsnow6807]

gorgeous bike! please get rid of the springs seat and put on a drag handle bar, i know it personal preference but having a spring seat on a bike with suspension is crazy to me, but great job

[@tylerssoul]

Do you know how to mount a seat like this without the springs? Trying to figure out before I buy one

[@calsnow6807]

@@tylerssoul I molded my fender/seat that is one peice into a seat, but I am sure you can bolt the seat right where it is minus the springs

[@corneilcorneil]

Nice result 👍🏼👍🏼

[@MitchellShaunLaing]

really nice bike man, well done

[@mirkodrag]

hi beautiful work on which site I can find the rear kit plate and saddle fender and supports ... thanks guys

[@antmiller8874]

looks awesome chap, but Where did you get that seat & rear fender from ??

[@stevebuckskinner5482]

Looks fantastic!!!

[@gspiggity]

Nice job, have you thought of adding exhaust bandage to go with the bobber look or do you like full chrome better?

[@CleanNuts]

See other videos I like both

[@Legendary-Ant]

Beautiful bike.

[@gfrank8058]

Nice job. No stupid ape hangers, and no stupid sissy bar. That stuff is for wannabes anyway. Awesome build. GF1 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😎

[@l.a.mouland1051]

Great build👍, did you have to use resisters to make the LEDs flash properly?

[@cedler426]

I had my carbs rejetted & I don't see the fuel mixture screw on mine but it runs fine. I wonder what happen to it.

[@Bonemann87]

Which Lift is that? Great Job!!

I like to know how you put the new back fender on.

Outstanding awesome build!

[@CleanNuts]

thanks have you seen my other videos

[@Mrtweet81]

I liked the last 3 minutes the most...

[@davidrich4738]

Looks and sounds great

[@gar3938]

what kind of pipes did you put on it instead of the stock ones . I like the sound I got a 2006 Suzuki boulevard c50 (800) Stock pipes are to quiet i want something louder .

[@jakeb7029]

I'm not sure what they are mate but they look like highway hawks to me. I'd recommend a look at metric cruisers or custom cruisers for any metric v twin. Just bare in mind anything about a slip on exhaust you'll have to re jet the carb or if it's fuel injected get a power commander or you'll run lean and damage the bike 👍 hope this helps, ride safe

[@Chupacabra0_0]

Any way you might have a parts list for this build?

[@wethepeople420]

Yamaha should have built them like this from the start

[@wildbutterflytiedye]

Love your MGB-GT

Great work
