    The drag bars look great, I like the low profile look though so I'm biased as hell.

    Man a set of drag bars would look absolutely killer on that bike! I really dig the springer front end. If it didn't fight you every step of the way then it wouldn't be a chopper...

    Pro tip: put the brake fluid back in from the bottom with a pump.... once the master cylinder has fluid, you're good. No more bleeding brakes.

    Bro.... you should have some Flanders cafe low , narrow bars for that chopper. Cut them in an inch or so ... it would be comfy and mean!

    I am stoked that you posted this video; there are no pics or instructions for installing the stay rod, ( as per Chris @ TCBros), so seeing your video showing how you installed yours just made my day.

    A chopper is when something is changed by cutting a bobber is when parts a just removed but reversed easily.

    That springer looks bad ass. I have always love the mechanical look of a springer. For me I like the apes better than the drag bars, at least on this bike. Really looks like someone along the way did some half ass work on this thing. Good to see you getting it worked out.

    @Rif_Leman 10 місяців тому

    In order to be a chopper, either the neck has to be cut and raked or the frame has to be hard tailed. If the frame is originally built as a hardtail and the neck is raked from the beginning, it isn't "chopped" and therefore, it isn't a chopper.

    Dunno if it's street legal but I would have gone with 2 small lights around or under the top springs, just to visually clear them and make them be the center piece of attention of the front, especially with drag bars.

    Put a fat tire on the front it'll be a bobber. Skinny tire and its a choppah. 👍
    Also, stainless braided brake lines would look sick and feel much nicer for braking. Might be spendy but well worth the investment imo.
    I like the drag bar look more myself but the mini apes are decent as well. 👍
