Check this out! The icon on this post is a bobber I am putting together. It is based on a mid fifties pan. This 93" pan puts out 90 horse and about the same for torque. It has clean handlebars with an internal throttle and nothing else on the bars. There are two separate right foot pedals (and masters) for front and rear brakes (or you can apply both at once,riders choice.) and a suicide clutch with a hand banger. Ya I know, how do you put your foot down at a stop? It has an auto clutch, below 1200 rpm it does it for you. The wheels are custom made 18" with black spokes so they appear to disappear once rolling. The front is a 150 and the rear is a 200. The front end is a "Big Un." It is engineered (34 + 3 deg.) to have 4.44 in of trail so this will handle. The final drive is a chain "sprotor," sprocket rotor system with ebony calipers. It has a five speed with a kicker and an electric leg. I am using a bike shock under the solo seat to cushion the ride on this Hardbody rigid frame. The bike is unfinished in the picture. I will complete it this fall when I have more time for building.
