- Here is my 1997 Honda shadow build. Skip to 3:45 for startup. Looking to do another build and share step by step on UA-cam. Posting this as a test to see if people would be interested. The build would be converting a Harley soft tail into a hard tail bobber. Please subscribe, like and comment so I know if people are interested!
Also join my discord for everything bike build related! Below are a list of mods on this shadow
- shorty shocks 100$ (I think 9.5 in I forget tbh)
- eBay seat 60$
- custom seat frame 20$
- fender deletes
Was a pretty basic build. Most of the time was spent taking the bike apart to paint properly. Seat mounting frame was the most difficult part trying to get the right angle.
This is a working man's bobber....respect.
Thanks man!
Bro. Hands down the best looking and sounding bobber I've seen to date. I'm Harley thru and thru but I'd be proud to roll out on that anyday. Nice work...I have a new respect for Honda and your work. Top Shelf shit bro...🤘💀🤘
Aye thanks so much! I’m doing a cafe racer build series on this channel right now.. maybe it’ll change your mind on those too lol. Hoping to do a Harley build at some point as well so stay tuned.

Saw on Craigslist! Super cool.
I’d love to see your next build!
Thanks man - stay tuned
Keep it up bro. Only gets better from here. ✌️
🙏🏻
Nice! Looks and sounds great!
Appreciate it!
@@jimmybuildsbikes curious to see your next build! 💪
Looks good.
appreciate it!
Nice bike but the running boards got to go lol sick build man
haha nahhh man pegs are so basic! appreciate it though.
I have dirt bike pegs on mine. I have a 2003 shadow 600 bobber it’s a little different lol but hey everyone has their own style. Rock on brother.
@@trentnick2711 sweet post a vid some day ill check it out
I've got a 97 vt1100 ace. Been thinking about doing a bobber
Send it !
Beautiful bike. Love the contrast on the tank with the whitewalls. Im currently building my 96 Shadow into a bobber. Im curious how you got the newer plastics (1999-2007) to fit the older model.
Aye thanks man and pretty sure the plastics are oem
How does it ride on road. Is it quite rough? Looking at maybe doing something like this to mine
Yeah it’s a bit rough but there are seat options with more cushion to make the ride better. Just don’t look as good in my opinion
What did u do with the airbox setup? I have a 96 shadow 600 with that massive triangular eyesore on it and i cant find ANY kind of replacement for it. Debating if i should take the whole thing out completely.
So the air box sits under the seat behind the side covers and routes under the tank to the carbs, so it not visible. I’ve seen these on 600s and they look sick though.

@@jimmybuildsbikes thank you for that info!!
I have a 2002 honda shadow that I am building. Where can I find them back turn signals and the brake light at? Thank you
I got them on Amazon. The signals are "bullet signals" and brake light maybe search "bobber tail light" should pop up eventually
Are u still going to build that harley hardtail???
I will eventually, but currently doing a cafe racer on my channel if you'd like to check that out. I actually almost bought a 77 iron head around when i posted this, but title issues turned me away. My hands are full with the cafe racer project but deff doing the hardtail at some point
Yes sir I will keep in touch. I will wait for that hard tail build. May try to buy it once your done. I recently just bought a Vulcan vt 800
Is it an ace?
Yessir
With this seat, my ass would hurt after 100 miles. Otherwise very chic..
Yeah that’s part of the reason I ended up selling it lol
Don't do Harley, mainly because everyone does Harley builds, bobbers should be a less expensive hobby ,besides riding a bobber around for a summer made me want a second bike, a big Harley bagger so I can grocery shop without taking the car 😂 !
Doing a cafe racer build rn on my channel. Still unsure what I’ll do next though!
