Project Harley bobber

In for updates.

 

I would like to get into something like this. What kind of costs are involved with a project like this?

 

 

Most of it is stuff you can fab up on your own, or exhisting parts that can just be painted. I would recommend buying something that is running first, then you can modify it from there.

 

Costs arent too bad, unless you are going to go on a fullscale rebuild, because harley parts are not cheap. The same result can be had with jap bikes, but i feel like it cheapens the experience..

Check out your generator to make sure it's in good condition. Mine sat for a while before I bought it and the seal inside the generator dried out and cracked. That allowed oil to leak into the generator and ground to the housing. We burned up several solonoids, coils, voltage regulators, etc... before we figured out what was happening.
