This is my bolt everything on Harley Sportster 72 project. This vid is a breakdown of all the mods I've done to my bike over the past 12 months.

Your bike looks great. Especially when it had the rabbit handle bars.

Thanks mate. Since sold it to a friend and am now working on a shovelhead chopper project.

Bro keep up the good work, it’s good to see people like you out there building up sportsters there own way and not just how everyone else is doing it. Can’t wait to see the next build 🤙🏼

Yeah I'm keen to start tearing into the ironhead, this was more of a cookie cutter bolt stuff on project where as the ironhead will be alot more fabrication work 🤟

Mate that father in law of your's is a keeper. Sporty is looking good & looking forward to the Ironhead build.

I'd be lost without him, his fabrication skills will come in handy on the ironhead hardtail build 😅

Nice work GM. Your videos have been great to watch. I've got a 2014 Sportster 1200C and I really want to do the fork mod. I only want to go up around 1". But I'll need to extend my brake line too. So your video on that was very informative. Did you notice any power increase with the belt to chain conversion? I've heard it adds a few hp.

@TheGingybeardMan Жыл бұрын

The gearing I went with for the chain conversion was very close to stock so there wasn't too much of a noticeable difference. If you went with a larger rear sprocket than I did it would increase bottom end torque/acceleration down low.

Hey mate finally checked with my mate who is into resins and epoxies and there is not much you can do about that temp making it soft. Except maybe a aluminium plate structure that has a resin covering. Bike is looking awesome ..👍🏻🇦🇺

Nice work! Have you considered getting a job in a custom bike shop? I reckon if you sent a heap of your videos as a portfolio, you would get a job as a bike builder no worries! I agree with ditching the rabbit ear bars. Makes the bike look stunted and a bit gimmicky. I'm surprised it wasn't a pain in the arse to ride with them.

@TheGingybeardMan Жыл бұрын

Thanks mate, my dream job would be to customise bikes for a living. At this stage it's just a hobby. Yeah man the rabbit ears had to go.

Need to drop the seat height by moving the bottom of the shocks back a inch, would look better

@TheGingybeardMan 10 ай бұрын

I've just raised the bars an inch with some taller risers and the lines look so much better.

Hey brother where did you get the fork damper?

@TheGingybeardMan 6 ай бұрын

I bought them directly from tracker die but they're out of business now despite their website still being up. Just google trackerdie fork dampers and they may pop up with another business.
