Very nice. If you could only add one thing I would say maybe add a small rear fender. Mostly for safety but I bet it would look that much better. It almost doesn't look finished without a rear fender.
Sup bro, nice bike. Quick question: I have the same bike in miami and was wondering if there is any way of adding a backseat to this same bobber setup. Thanks
Nice job, I polished the aluminum on mine to not too fine a finish, like a 60s Ferrari race car with red tank, love the hard tail look of our bikes but mono shocked
I can't say I like the colour choice for the wheels, but you certainly got the lines right on her. I've seen a lot of these bobbed, and a lot of builders seem to have no understanding of the line of the bike. Tanks too tall, seat too far forward, proportions *all over the place* , etc. etc. But this one looks sweet. Personally, I'd put a short rear mudguard/fender on her, just enough for a strip brake light, but it doesn't *need* it. You've made a lovely job of her, young man. Well done. :)
Awesome, Reece! I kinda like the 'fixie' bike look that you ended up with. I just bought the same bike, not running, but a '99 for $600 cash- May have been more of a basket case than yours was. Just needed a battery and a carb cleaning, honed the break cylinders, sealed the stator cover, balanced the carbs, replaced the intake tubes to the cylinders, sealed the gas tank, reworked the wiring back to stock, topped off the front fork tubes, replaced the leaking gear shifter seal, putting baffle DB killers in the exhaust pipes, ordered keys and ignition and gas cap locks(they were not there when I bought it)... fixed a lot of stuff. All ebay, Amazon, craigslist and Duralast cheap aftermarket stuff. I did it on WAAAAAAY more of a budget than you did, LOL. Mine's not a bobber... yet! Yours has me thinking, though. Really turned out to be a total winner!!!!!!
Looks great man! I see you are in Fort Myers! I live down here too andddd I’m looking around to get my first bike. I have no experience whatsoever but I really dig this style.
I know this video is kinda old so you're probably not checking the comments on it, but hopefully you still are. I'm just trying to figure out how you did you're exhaust. Where exactly did you cut it
Genuinely good video series. I have the same bike. Really wish I knew anything about it so I could do this sort of thing too. Living through you vicariously.
The wiring for the tail light should be, black, blue for running light and yellow for brake light, black brown and green are turn signals, left being brown and green being right, I could be wrong but as far as I know, most yamaha use that colors.
Is there any one out there that have put a 770 big bore kit on there bike? I haven’t seen any reviews on them. Are most people just doing a engine swap instead of a rebuild?
lol its not like it means fabricating things, hes doing the wiring and for the most part it take mechanical knowledge to do what hes done so id say its considered from the bottom
This Bike is insane i Love your work and you seem to be a cool Guy. Definetly gonna watch more videos of you! Could you sum up the costs for this bobbee built including the price of the Bike?
Hi there, great job on your bobber, I just bought a Vstar 650 to begin work on. Right now mine has floor boards on, but I was looking to put on pegs instead. Did you add those or were they already on her. Do you recall where you got them, just wanted to be sure if the fitment. Thanks
Looks a lot like a different well known you tubers build a good while ago. I’m not one to bad mouth with zero proof or reason. Don’t be safe and follow the trends bro. Be you and make a name. I can’t be upset with anyone passing on good two wheel vibes so keep safe and do you
Built From The Bottom don’t get me wrong bud. Thing looks good. I ride an 2017 fz09 and drz400 so not really my bag but I would love to build a bonnet soon. I’m a welder by trade but can’t find the right project to make it happen. Check out wondrous coating and design on Facebook or insta. That’s me and a buddy’s company. If you need any plasma cut parts reach out and we will help you out for maybe a shout out
Bro I just seen your video from last year on those bent af rims.those I believe we're mine from my accident I had exact same rims damage tires on my super duty.did u buy them in northern Florida
Hey bro, awesome build. Where did you find your hand controls? I see you got your levers off of a kawasaki, but I can't figure out where to find black killswitch and turn signal housings for a V star, I'm making a bobber as well. Are the hand signals universal to all bikes?
Amazing build mate - what height are you ? Getting a bobber built and love the seating position you have on yours there ? Trying to get the seat and bars height right so im not too crouched over etc. cheers 👍🏻
First off man beautiful bike, exactly my taste. Quick question for the 19 inch wheel is it a must that you need to replace the front end to make it fit. I have a 2000 vstar 650 that i want that front wheel on. Thanks in advance.
Dude, bike looks great. In the process of doing mine. Did you get your rear rim powder coated or sprayed as there are rubber dampers bonded in the rim?
“America right there” -_- made in Japan
Charles Kellar shhhh just let him have it, we all know but let’s just let him think what he wants
😂
i mean maybe hes talking about be loud af? lol
I came to the comments just to see if anyone mentioned this. lol
He's still a boy ,forgive him
Very nice. If you could only add one thing I would say maybe add a small rear fender. Mostly for safety but I bet it would look that much better. It almost doesn't look finished without a rear fender.
The white and red look great together... very clean, classy, yet vintage looking 🔥
Sup bro, nice bike. Quick question: I have the same bike in miami and was wondering if there is any way of adding a backseat to this same bobber setup. Thanks
Jiat moved to FL abd i have have same bike. Are there any shops in FL that do these type of builds
I like that you actually build your stuff whether it be a car jet ski bike good stuff !
Thank!
Glad I found ur channel, working on same bike , and it's been bobbed!!! I'll be watching for ur great vids for help and inspiration!! Peace bro!!
That's the bike that I've been looking for!! Low, clean, classic
Nice job, I polished the aluminum on mine to not too fine a finish, like a 60s Ferrari race car with red tank, love the hard tail look of our bikes but mono shocked
Beautifulllllllll great taste, loving the bike
Nice Job man.
Your hands grow the Right way 👍🏼👍🏼
I converted mine to a bobber as well and I love it
No shit.... im in ft myers aswell! About to pick up a vstar tomorrow and build a little bobber out of it aswell!
I can't say I like the colour choice for the wheels, but you certainly got the lines right on her.
I've seen a lot of these bobbed, and a lot of builders seem to have no understanding of the line of the bike.

It turned out really good! Nice bike man!

That is a nice looking ride. Good job.
Nice bike man, good work🔥🔥🔥
It would be nice if you showed us how you converted the stock exhaust and modified it
Looks great man! I see you are in Fort Myers! I live down here too andddd I’m looking around to get my first bike. I have no experience whatsoever but I really dig this style.
With the seat what you need is red stitching on it, it would looks amazing with red stitching to stand out instead of black
I wanted to do the seat white with red stitching but my upholstery lady could not do it
This is fire
I know this video is kinda old so you're probably not checking the comments on it, but hopefully you still are. I'm just trying to figure out how you did you're exhaust. Where exactly did you cut it
Go all way up with that bench press lol clean as bike .
38 special I got you coach 😅
Lol
That thing looks awesome 🔥
love my vstar 650 bobber
thats hot as. and that jeep also is siicckk
Did you have to cut the center bracket on the exhaust? I have an 07 and am struggling getting the bottom muffler out
Love your rebuild series man!
Zka IDC only more to come!!!🤟🏻🥶
Ive got an 1100cc vstar I keep thinking of doing the same thing.

Did it again! Nailed it! Gj
Genuinely good video series. I have the same bike. Really wish I knew anything about it so I could do this sort of thing too. Living through you vicariously.
How tall is he? Does anyone know? Trying to figure out if id fit on one of these bikes comfortably
How did you cut/ do your pipes exactly?
Dude hold your head high!! You’ve smashed it bro looks 🔥 you looked cool af riding it 😎 good on you bro 👊
Adam 🇬🇧
Adam Stratford I know!!! I feel cool af riding it
Built From The Bottom 😎😎
Super nice, clean as hell. Def subscribing.
The wiring for the tail light should be, black, blue for running light and yellow for brake light, black brown and green are turn signals, left being brown and green being right, I could be wrong but as far as I know, most yamaha use that colors.
Bad ass bike wat size of wheels n tires do u have on it
Is there any one out there that have put a 770 big bore kit on there bike? I haven’t seen any reviews on them. Are most people just doing a engine swap instead of a rebuild?
Will the stock handles work on that bar
Looks great 👍🏼
What kinda handle bars are them?
nice build bro..looking forward for CBR & S1kRR
It’s always the neutral switch that leaks on these bikes
Got a link for the handle bars? Beautiful build
Great job bro!
Lovely looking bike that Reese, well done. Looking forward to the next build. Keep up the good work, really enjoy your channel
Thanks 👍
I really liked the motorcycle and music too. what is the name? 13:40
What song was this at the end?
Very nice boss
What was the cost of the build?
Beautiful bike.
I neeeeeeeed to know how you did the exhaust!!!! Did you rejet carbs after straight piping it???
Super what you did is fantastic man
From Egypt /cairo 🇪🇬🏍️
can you really called this "built from the bottom tho" when everything was bought , and just slapped on ?
lol its not like it means fabricating things, hes doing the wiring and for the most part it take mechanical knowledge to do what hes done so id say its considered from the bottom
@VIKING BIKING I guess 🤷🏼♂️
Hahahahaha exactly. Built with daddy's card bahaha
Haters haters
when you buy a turbo you put it together and weld the bits together huh?
Sick❤👍🏾
Hey man! I just bought the same bike, and the exhaust is cut exactly the same! It backfires a bit. Did you rejet?
Fuck yeah brother just got my first bike it's Vstar 650 Def's removing back guard and wiring up the rear light like you've done here looks fkn mad 🤟🏿
Nice ride... have fun.. 🤙
Wish I had found your channel earlier. I have that exact same taillight (led). Amazon shipped me 2 when I ordered mine. Shhhh
Loving the rebuilds mate. Would be awesome if you got your hands on a KTM
Im thinking about doing a sick dirt bike build just have to wait till i find a good deal
Nice one, keep up the top work. Makes me want to buy another bike just to customise it
how tall are you? im looking into getting a vstar 650 and am curious if i will be too tall for it lol
Where did you order the seat set up exactly? I have a 99 650 I’m working on and I always worry about Amazon. Thanks
What brand of tires are those?
Do you wear any black leather biker greaser jackets with your motorcycle??
where question, but what jeans where those? I’ve been looking for that wash for a while now.
Pls help me I just looking same like that motorcycle dragstar
I love that bike ❤️❤️❤️
Love the build ❤️ 🇱🇰
She's a Beauty, Brother ❤️❤️

Nice job, where did you get the cylinder head caps from? Are they a good quality piece? Thanks
This Bike is insane i Love your work and you seem to be a cool Guy. Definetly gonna watch more videos of you!
Could you sum up the costs for this bobbee built including the price of the Bike?
Yo bro where’d you get ur seat?
Hi there, great job on your bobber, I just bought a Vstar 650 to begin work on. Right now mine has floor boards on, but I was looking to put on pegs instead. Did you add those or were they already on her. Do you recall where you got them, just wanted to be sure if the fitment. Thanks
What exhaust is that I want one
gotta rejet the bike now buddy! :)
Also cut out in filter housing for better flow with custom exhaust.
Very Nice Bike bro! how tall are you? im 6.0 and im afraid i look too big on this bike
I’m gonna buy this dawg
Looks a lot like a different well known you tubers build a good while ago. I’m not one to bad mouth with zero proof or reason. Don’t be safe and follow the trends bro. Be you and make a name. I can’t be upset with anyone passing on good two wheel vibes so keep safe and do you
Jonathan Fletcher honestly I got the idea to do the bike like this cause I saw one on Facebook market place

randall arnett I bought them from some guy in Lakeland
Hey bro, awesome build. Where did you find your hand controls? I see you got your levers off of a kawasaki, but I can't figure out where to find black killswitch and turn signal housings for a V star, I'm making a bobber as well. Are the hand signals universal to all bikes?
Amazing build mate - what height are you ? Getting a bobber built and love the seating position you have on yours there ? Trying to get the seat and bars height right so im not too crouched over etc. cheers 👍🏻
Finished up nice bro. How many quarts of oil did you end up putting in?
3 quarts
Unreal vid love how the bike came out, how did the power feel being a 650 out on the road ?
V star 650 is pretty slow ngl they only make like 40 hp and like 50 pound feet of torque
Hey man really big fan of your work. Where do you find these bikes?
How much for the bobber?
I sold it awhile ago
Yo man what tripod do you use? And what do you use to record ?
just a little spider mount and a cannon g7x mark II
Harley Davidson dyna fxdb next?🤔
That or a dirt bike build
First off man beautiful bike, exactly my taste. Quick question for the 19 inch wheel is it a must that you need to replace the front end to make it fit. I have a 2000 vstar 650 that i want that front wheel on. Thanks in advance.
hey man, what seat do you have? can you give me a link or where did you buy it? nice work :)
Nice job on your bobber. Is the front wheel using the stock rim? If so what size tire are you using for the front?
What exhaust is that? its sick
It's the stock exhaust. Just removed the slip on ends
Awesome bike dude
Really enjoyed the video! What did you use for the gasket on the engine and stator cover?
Dude, bike looks great. In the process of doing mine. Did you get your rear rim powder coated or sprayed as there are rubber dampers bonded in the rim?
That’s America right there… Japanese Yamaha V-Star
