This is the best looking Vstar bobber. You made it look like it’s worth a lot more. A lot of people make it look like junk and basically destroy the value. Well done. I’d love to do one like this at some point.

The kit is from Blue Collar Bobbers, It came with a 1969 Bullet style rear brake light. Unfortunately is illegal to have in NSW so I bought a LED strip online from Custom Cruisers in USA.

The idea of the wrap is to keep the gases hot and double burn… Apparently anyway

@crypto_que 7 жыл бұрын

awesome awesome job with this build! very clean this design absolutely timeless! I think exhaust wrap is to insulate the pipe so the heat stays inside. This is done not just for rider comfort but keeping exhaust gasses hot does aid in power production. are you building anything else? If so please keep us posted.

You should be able to find it on Custom Cruisers still. Email them and ask. I took the back fender off and fed the wiring up through the inside of the fender. A couple of mates who are handy really did a great job on it.
