So... I had another thread on here documenting my build however I had a minor lapse in thinking and moved the pics around in my photobucket account and broke all my links and pretty much killed the thread so here goes another try.  I picked up an 86 savage earlier this year as the base platform for my first project/ bobber build because of its simple mechanics.





the previous owner hacked up the stock bars and came up with this weird set up that now hangs in the garage as a conversation piece.


didn't take but a few hours to tear this thing down




voodoo hard tail mocked up and welded


it took me a long time to come up with a tank that gave this little bobber the perfect low and narrow look im going after. then lowbrow customs released this little p-nut tank and it is a perfect fit all the way around





here are the mx pegs I made with some scrap













I took on a new skill after not being able to locate a seat that was to my liking.


 




also tooled out a fuel bottle holder to match the seat



how it sits now

The p nut tank only holds 2 gallons so I wanted to have some sort of reserve.

Looking good BlueKnight! Lots of work, can't wait to see more progress  

Looks cool.  A hand off the throttle and front brakes for every shift is going to be kinda lame.  But I dont imagine this bike is for function as much as looks.

Looks like a fun build.
