For your fender issue, STORZ PERFORMANCE Has a sweet fiberglass flat tracker Fender/ seat rear end with a metal sub frame and plastic inner fender well as well as a license plate / light hook up ! That's where I gonna head when comes time to chop the struts off of my 09 sporty ! Looking good man 👍👏
Very true! First and hopefully last time I make that mistake, haha. Was my first time chopping a fender also, so makes sense. At least it’s able to be corrected 😁

Ha, I made this exact same mistake (cutting the fender and keeping the back instead of the front). I wound up scrapping the bobber look and went with a Tracker instead, since I pretty much destroyed the fender trying to get it to work.
What paint did you use to touch up the struts you grinded and rounded? Did exactly what you did with my sportster and used a gloss spray paint and applied using a foam brush as well. The match is just not quite right.
Is it possible to cut the frame all the way leaving only the bolts that hold the suspension? I really want the Fender to be even shorter than this. Thanks for the vids!
Battery angle grinders don't last too long, even with the lithium batteries. I tried to cut out my exhaust from my SUV, and I went thru about 10 battery sessions. That's 5 batteries charged twice.
Next time get the brushless DeWalt tools, way better. There's youtube vids about how DeWalt is using marketing labeling two step BS to sell the lesser quality shit. And imo, get the bigger battery. That little one doesn't last very long at all.
Also don’t use wire to remove reflectors you can just pop them off with a flathead covered in electrical tape and don’t have to take off any sticky residue
Everything is probably solved already but couldn't you have modified the silver piece on the seat instead of the fender?? 🤔 like... Bringing it down to match the screw?
Sorry didn't have the patience to watch the usual repeat of the stuff I heard before but enjoyed the new stuff keep plugging away at this build I'd put another rubber spacer for the seat myself that would bring the seat to the right height
@@BlockheadMoto yeah that would be great I was a little grumpy and impatient having been up for over 20hours but couldn't sleep until I watched the episode
I need some help I took my stock slip ons off and rode around for a day and put them back on and now my bike idles High about 1200 rpm. Do i have an exhaust leak? 2016 street bob 1500 miles
Hey boss I've been searching the internet for awhile about so ideas on that rear fender deal if there is anyway you find a few minutes holler at me please thanks.
My hopes are high, but my expectations are low on winning, I have a 2012 Xl883L atm, but it’d be nice to have another to teach my girl to ride with me as well, Anyways, been watching for a while, love your channel man. Keep it up brother!
Please respond to this question because I'd really like to know...why did you out the speedometer on the SIDE instead of leaving it up TOP where is actually visible? I don't think it makes it look cool at all on the side. It looks very weird, impractical, illogical, and dangerous since to see your speed you would have to look down and to the side, taking your eyes completely off the road. I would very STRONGLY suggest placing it back up top where it belongs for convenience and safety. It's really NOT safe to have it placed down so low and on the side.
I signed up for Patreon, but do I have to physically pledge to videos or is it automatic based on your output of videos for that month? I signed up only a few days ago so I’m curious if I would even qualify for this current prize. Does billing occur at the end of the month? Thanks in advance. Love the videos, keep it up. Should be making a purchase of my own very soon as a first timer 🤗
Block, I really really hate you. Why do I hate you? Because watching this build progress has made me put a parts list a few grand long together for my 1200 Custom. So thanks for that. Keep up the good work, I enjoy your content. Fairly similar background myself, with trucks, firearms, and since last year, motorcycles.
With the low mileage on the engine, I felt it best to leave it unaltered for reliability. I don’t want the person that wins it to come across an issue later bc of a big bore kit and not have the means to repair it.
going the SE 883 to 1200 you are really doing nothing more than replacing the sleeves and heads. I had mine done. would not be a maintenance issue. it is surprising on how much difference it made. I can though understand keeping it like it is as to the engine. cool.
I get it. It’s like your shtick (spelling?) but you should pull a binging with babish and start showing your face on camera. Just a suggestion lol great videos!
For your fender issue,

We live and we learn, every fender in the future is going to be done correctly thanks to your experience this time! Keep up the good work!

@@BlockheadMoto Agreed, would have been a total bummer if it couldn't be corrected. Hurray for the positives!
Man I really like that seat! Please make it work with that one! :)

Can't wait to see it finished up and excited to see what the next project is!
Awesome....yep one of the reason we go with springer seat!
Ha, I made this exact same mistake (cutting the fender and keeping the back instead of the front). I wound up scrapping the bobber look and went with a Tracker instead, since I pretty much destroyed the fender trying to get it to work.
It's almost unbelievable to me to see you create this project and in the end giving the custom bike away...💚 Amazing...
Giving back to the community that gives me so many opportunities just feels right 😊
Springer seat would be pretty rad
Love watching these build videos, and seeing the creativity you bring to the builds. It makes me want to try something similar.
👊🏼
What paint did you use to touch up the struts you grinded and rounded? Did exactly what you did with my sportster and used a gloss spray paint and applied using a foam brush as well. The match is just not quite right.
Man I’ve been a subscriber since day one of this bike !!❤️❤️❤️ I hope I can get my hands on this ! Dream bike 🏍🥰
Awesome video thanks so much for the update keep up the good work my friend
I would love it with a springer seat with bronze springs
Is it possible to cut the frame all the way leaving only the bolts that hold the suspension? I really want the Fender to be even shorter than this. Thanks for the vids!

New tires coming in ?! Do a nasty burnout before you mount them 🤷🏽♂️
Last build video! Yesssss! 🤙🏼
Love how it’s coming! Looks great
I won a bike in a competition. It was shit but cost me the price of a stamp. 28p U.K. Your vids are good BLOCKHEAD. Keep on keeping on.
Where did you get the rubber for the spacing on the fender?
Hmm stage 2 fxdr 🤔 I gotta see the numbers on it when it’s done contemplating it on my streetglide
Ooouuh La Pera seat 🤤 Can’t wait to watch the springer episode
It's going to be a sweet ride!
Great video! Thanks Block!
Ha! 114 miles. New Harley engines? Anyone? Okay
Bike is looking Bad Ass!✌
Can you show how you relocate the ECU because I want to do that to my sportster 09
I’ve gotten a couple requests for one more build episode. I’ll ask the Patrons if they’d want one more 👍🏼
10:36-10:45 rofl 🤣 that was just too perfect 😂
Good looking bike hope it goes to a good home.
When changing out exhaust pipes, how do you get to check engine light to not come on now that you've changed the parameters?
Tune it, I used an FP3 on this bike
My expectations of winning this are low. But, as I never had a bike before, but working on it...I'd love to win it!
It's so nice! 😢 Good work, man!
Going to look so clean when it's done. Great job dude!
Next time get the brushless DeWalt tools, way better. There's youtube vids about how DeWalt is using marketing labeling two step BS to sell the lesser quality shit. And imo, get the bigger battery. That little one doesn't last very long at all.
Solution No. 2!
Mike Blomquist mentioned in a earlier comment that he'd be willing to send you the fender if you pay for shipping 🤷♂️
Copy that! Responded and email given 🤞🏼
Do it with a spring seat
What are those tail lights?
What tire size are those rears?
Damn bro bummer about that fender, you'll figure it out fs tho. Have faith lol 😂
What paint are you using?
VHT black high temp
Also don’t use wire to remove reflectors you can just pop them off with a flathead covered in electrical tape and don’t have to take off any sticky residue
It was fishing line, adhesive came off fine after w a heat gun and goo gone 👍🏼
Everything is probably solved already but couldn't you have modified the silver piece on the seat instead of the fender?? 🤔 like... Bringing it down to match the screw?
Aye! You went to Home Depot for those tools! I work at Home Depot in Texas :D
I did! Love that place, haha
bro sweet montage music going in and out of slow motion love it
springer seat? Fuck yeah!
Can you please post the link to those grips please.
Hi man , what’s brand of this seat
“I am the ultimate ‘Blockhead Bike Build’ fan because… YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO RIDE A MOTORCYCLE - 1 WEEK LATER GOT A PERMIT/MOTORCYCLE
You need to review the harley davidson superlow sportster. I cant find any halfassed reviews on it
@blockhead Which tier do I need to be in to qualify for the motorcycle?
All tiers qualify.
+1 on what Steve said, there’s only one tier and you set it at whatever you want, and you’re automatically included 👍🏼
nice bike good luck everyone
Sorry didn't have the patience to watch the usual repeat of the stuff I heard before but enjoyed the new stuff keep plugging away at this build I'd put another rubber spacer for the seat myself that would bring the seat to the right height
No prob! I only include that for the people that are just tuning in. I’ll have to streamline that in the future season for sure 👍🏼
@@BlockheadMoto yeah that would be great I was a little grumpy and impatient having been up for over 20hours but couldn't sleep until I watched the episode
jason white Haha I appreciate you powering through the tiredness to give it a watch! 👊🏼
I need some help
I took my stock slip ons off and rode around for a day and put them back on and now my bike idles High about 1200 rpm. Do i have an exhaust leak?
2016 street bob 1500 miles
Not sure, try pulling the main fuse to reset it?
0:02 da da da da da you know im mobbin with tbe D R E (Dr. Dre motha fucka)” 😂😂😂 that’s what that reminded me of, I guess that shows my age huh?
Are you going to put a Corbin seat on there?
There’s literally a LePera seat in the episode soooo....
Hey brother have a great episode
Yay no sleep team!!
#StayWokeSquad
Wicked cool!!
Hey boss I've been searching the internet for awhile about so ideas on that rear fender deal if there is anyway you find a few minutes holler at me please thanks.
Can you do a review on the 2019 Harley Davidson breakout?
My hopes are high, but my expectations are low on winning, I have a 2012 Xl883L atm, but it’d be nice to have another to teach my girl to ride with me as well,
Anyways, been watching for a while, love your channel man. Keep it up brother!

That bike is so sexy looking to buy one like it
im a sikh so i dont wear helmate wich i want to becuase safty but i like to feel the air
Its damned near a new bike with the low mileage and all you've done to it.
An elliptical tail light would look cool under the fender. JS
For sure!
if you pay for shipping' ill send you a fender man
That’s very nice of you man! Hit me up via email: BlockheadMoto@Gmail.com 👍🏼

Lol, sorry man 😁
I thought you were converting it to a 1200
I think hes looking at doing something like that for his own Iron.

Dude I want that bike so badly! Please give me that bike! Please!
Why can't Canada have it 😭
Doyle because you guys are too nice
Lol @ too nice comment! It’s a much more difficult, lengthy and costly process transferring out of country bc of differing regulations & vehicle laws
I get it. It’s like your shtick (spelling?) but you should pull a binging with babish and start showing your face on camera. Just a suggestion lol great videos!
Face reveal?
Fourth person
Wish I could be a patreon supporter but 6 kids dictate where the money goes. I have been looking at bikes but I think it's going to be a while.

AH SHIT. lmao
Snuck up on me, lol
People complain about your tools?! Really?!
Not complain, just comment lol
