How to Build a Bobber on a Budget Jose de Miguel
Publisher: MBI Publishing Company

This is my winter project, a 1985 honda shadow vt700, i got it from a friend who was gonna build it into a bobber and later decided to just sell it to me for 500 bucks! You are here: Home / Custom Built Bikes / Build Your Own Bobber: Building Your Own Bobber Can be Fun And Easy if You Plan it Right! I picked up a 1981 Yamaha XJ550 Maxim in running and driving shape real cheap. Mail (not published) (required). Find smaller dealers and one off shops. The entire bike was built on a tight budget, not because Cassio wanted it to be cheap but to show that this can be done by anyone, with any budget, and almost any experience. Thought i'd post up my budget bobber build in progress. The motor should be the majority of your budget and it should be “Worth something” make sure you “ invest” in a good vintage motor. However i've come across numerous rebuilts and some new in the 3k.. The rest is bolt on and can actually be found all over the place. Question would be how do i start getting to my goal.let me back up though, i want to build a bobber style bike, slowly. But regardless, i was at the book store earlier today was surprized to see nothing on building a chopper/bobber whats so ever. After talking to the guy for a few minutes, he told me the story behind this bobber he built from scratch with no prior engineering or bike-building experience.
