So I find this first thing this morning, finally. You made my day down here in San Marcos Texas. Now get those T-shirts and Hoodies in the store with all of your spare time. Lol
Really was glad to see you back making videos , doing a similar seat on my shadow this video will definitely help when it comes time to install it ! Thanks
vulcans shapen up real nice boss!! eye gotta 1970s sumin honda cj360 im chopn on now. guess it was only made 1 year. it needs alot of luv but double checkd da wiring, run a temp gas tank & hookd up a battery & she fired rite up, 2nd or 3rd kick. 🤘😎🤘
I dig the modern Metric bike projects. I'm also a huge fan of Classic Datsuns and would love to see a good video about that classic (antique lol) white Z in the background there. I had a blue 77 and I loved that car. Crazy fast but the subframe rusted off that car. Bike progress looks great as well
It needs to be lowered to look awesome. You can lower it for free, only cut and extend the link in the back, and in the front cut the upper spacers and put the cut part under the lower spring on the damper with shims. Job done
For that tank you could cut off the mounting tab and then weld something to fill the front of the tunnel then weld a new mount at the bottom, if you wanted to make that one work. Then it would be a higher angle and look like it was made that way
Love the videos. What mig welder are you using in all your bike builds? Looking to buy myself a weld to start learning the process but unsure of what amp to go for! Greetings from Sweden!
Love the build and ur video Iv got a vn400 in Thailand just wondering did I miss somewhere that you hardtail the bike if not ur seat is going to get hit buy ur gard
A C shaped bkt that hooks around that bar would've achieved the same thing for the seat. Or, redo the original bkt & make it it a few inches longer with a C hook on the end 🤷♂️ Enjoying this, keep it up
Great video man love your work. i"m very interested in how you cone do the cooling system? and what you plan on the magnetos. ill ride a VN drifter bobber and thinking of making some mods you video is a great inspiration for it. Greatings from the Netherlands
I will say the videos are a god sent and I appreciate you providing us with this quality content. I did have a question about he seat, how did the comfortability come out with you not having a springs under your seat? Or was that not a big deal to you to begin with?
Hey man I’m finishing up my Kawasaki Vulcan 800 bobber build and the seat i got is horribly uncomfortable, where did you find that seat? Thanks man, love your channel
So just my 4 ¢ on your build. ( Yes you have skills and have fabricated many nice choppers and bobbers) The Kawasaki is a different machine; a bagger or drag bike vs a chopper or bobber.. the 50ft lbs of tork with the ss and the gearing are different so add a large front sprocket and a smaller rear will allow 100 mph in 3rd.. the bike is built for hy and long runs I have put 5 hours on one ride before stopping.. The H.D has a split tank so that will allow a better balance. And yes we learn our vn800s a 93% and 2 stroke oil will create a crotch rocket.. I run 130/90. 16. And 140/90 16 I use a wide tred vs skinny ot tall.. at 500lbs they maneuver very well. The short run bar hopping bikes are and have different qualities. A bagger for the long haul. You know. Much thanks; Russ. The VN parts can be a bit $$$ so we mod what we got. Best of luck.
I recon that extension of metal will rotate with one bolt holding the seat ,best ya weld it to the main bit so it cant move. That or cut another longer bit so ya got the two bolts holding it or even better, start again, make a whole new one & do it right.
It’s really coming together well! I don’t see many people build these bikes.
Nice! It’s different looking and I’m digging it
I really enjoy your videos, keep doing this kind of videos please! I dream to work on my bike like you! Thanks for sharing with us!

The Japanese v twins have a style and ride of their own! They are really well built machines!
Dudes, Please finish this bike. Love the videos.
Como no podría ser de otra manera, me esta gustando como queda. Buen trabajo 🍻🛠🔧🔩⚙Saludos from SPAIN.🍺 🤟😎
It’s coming along! I like that seat a lot. And the simplicity of the rear fender is nice!
Beautiful !
I have been waiting for this post so hyped to watch it
Missed your channel for a while man ....more than enough time to catch up now
Really was glad to see you back making videos , doing a similar seat on my shadow this video will definitely help when it comes time to install it ! Thanks

love your series, really got me into working on my own bike now, big up for upcoming episode and take care!
coming out sick
Looks like its going well . I like your attention to details on that tank, if I saw that bung welded on I would also appreciate the simple solution.
Can't wait to see the end result!
Fans dari Indonesia haii👋🏻
Lookin good!

I would use some Fat Bob tanks on that build. Looks like you have the room. It also might give you a place to put the coolant filler. 🤔
Put some short springs on that seat I think that would be sick and prob more comfy as well
Nice ride man...I dig what you guys do and stand for.....who the hell wants to spend 20-30 grand on a new harley
Let's gooooooooo!
Hey ya se les extrañaba!!!!!!
Saludos y un fuerte abrazo
Bendiciones en sus rodadas
Bike is looking good 🤙
Not to many videos on Kawasaki bikes.
Excelente, saludos desde México 😎🤙

Sweet Ride 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awesome!
I had a 900 that I bobbed out. I wish I never sold it

Esse tanque de combustível só dá volta no quarteirão!

I plan to do a valcan bobber build and I was wondering if you are going to use an Etank on it? Or can you even get an Etank for a valcan?
Hey man I’m finishing up my Kawasaki Vulcan 800 bobber build and the seat i got is horribly uncomfortable, where did you find that seat?
Thanks man, love your channel
Hi beautiful bike .... Can you tell me where you relocate the air box under the seat ???
I love that seat! Where did you get it?
A friend wants to give me an '08 Vulcan 800 and some cash for my Dyna...are these vids a sign I should say yes?! lol I THINK SO

Where do u get new brake.lines and stuff.for.that bike unless that's all OEM?
What welder do you use? Great content bro 👌🏽
Hey brotha what kind of welder are you using
Damn ! Where does the seat come from ? Maybe you have a link ?
👍
How painful is it riding a hardtail without any barrel springs under the seat
No video 6??? I was enjoying this so much, but the most important parts are missing now..
🔥🔥🔥❤️🇹🇭
What weld did you use Master?
When's 6?
How much for you to make my 2003 vulcan 800 a bobber like yours?
Where did you order the gas tank from?
Is that the original seat or did you buy a new one to modify? If so where did you get it? Can you drop a link?

Why haven't we seen the finished product yet
