Title: Re: People with bobbers Post by ohio thumper on 11/05/10 at 09:11:26 haven't gotten that far yet, but i think i might put it on the fender between swing arm if i decide to bob the fender. or since i work in a machine shop, just might make a bracket for it. |

Title: Re: People with bobbers Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/06/10 at 20:00:18 So, what happens when the rear tire runs thru some water, or wet sand & gravel? |
Title: Re: People with bobbers Post by Edgar on 11/06/10 at 21:02:05 No too many wet days here. And I don't ride in the rain as my savage is just my "weekend fun toy" if there's loose Rocks on the ground then that might hurt! The rear fender is just a bit fugly, so I wanna take it off while I think about if I want to just do a brat style bobber keeping the stock springs and frame, or if I'll use my tax return to go all out and getting a hard tail welded on. Either decision will have a fender though |

Title: Re: People with bobbers Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/07/10 at 10:14:54 Finally,, a totally rideable bobber. If I was gonna Bob,, thats how Id go at it. That suits me fine, as long as I could figure out a sanitary way to hook some bags on so I could run to town & haul stuff home, then be able to take it all off & not have it look messy with attachment points & such. I put a tach in the pickup. Wanted it up on the dash, but didnt want to muss anytyhing up, so, I built a bracket outta some real hard wire & secured it under a screw head thats exposed down in the defrost air outlet. Took about 12 hours to figure it all oput, bend it to fit, & get the wiring all done. Hooked up the oil pressure gauge & tach lites to the dimmer switch that runs the dash lites. Pretty sanitary installation. |
Title: Re: People with bobbers Post by Hashbrown on 11/08/10 at 08:11:08 This is where i put my rectifier. it does require drilling out the holes on the rectifier and using a tap for the screw holes on the frame but it is on there snug. http://p1.bikepics.com/pics/2010/11/08/bikepics-2094682-full.jpg |
