I plan on building a bobber/low slung bike when I get back next winter. I like the low bars, wide tank, wide back tire, performance almost Vrod kind of look. I really like the clean look of a hard tail, but I want the bike to be a daily driver. I am also leaning twds a bigger cc bike. My question is, what are your guys opinions on good bikes for this kind of build? Also, do you think a hard tail would be too rough to ride every day? My only problem with some of the bigger bikes is having four carbs.....and reliability issues. What do you think?
A lil background info, before i get asked....yes I am a chopper mechanic, a helicopter mechanic. My job is working on turbine engines, but right now I got put in the sheet metal shop to help run it for the deployment. I can weld, torch, and make works of art with a sawzaw, welder, and a grinder. I have been working on vehicles for about ten years, so Im fairly mechanically inclined. Ive never tried building a bike, so any ideas or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
