Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Anyone in here have a FXBB Street Bob? I’m selling my Saddlemen step-up and having a helluva time finding a buyer. I’m willing to ship.



Model # 818-30-172.
You can cross reference Saddlemen.com for other models that the seat might fit. I have maybe 500 miles on this seat so it’s barely used.

 

Nice one, that’s an awesome present!

Mine mostly stays hidden in the garage

 

Honda Grom swapped with a Cbr250r engine

 

this is an awesome gift!!!

 

That was a good idea to set it up that way, and I’m sure he’ll love the truck

 

That’s f*ckin rad!! Roadtrip with the kid?? Or surprise for him??

 

Got my fairing and seat installed today. Still haven’t managed to go pick up my exhaust but I’m anxious to get that done too.




I have a TSport fairing that I’ll try on as well but I’m not a huge fan so far. I feel like it’s too wide and sticks out too far forward. I’ll be modifying it to be narrower and see how close I can get it. Hopefully I can flip the one I don’t decide to keep or they’ll become garage wall art.

 

I’m loving the build!

 

Thanks man! I mean, it’s basically a rehash of what I did to the street bob but it’s still fun to do. Haha.

 

You might want to consider keeping both fairings. That slightly bigger T-Sport unit could be real handy if you decide to take a longer trip where more wind deflection could be useful.

 

I’ve never ridden a 600 before this. Went from an EX500 -> speed triples (955 and 1050) -> fj09 -> FZ10.

I’m having an absolute blast so far. This bike is such a sweetheart. The little 600 still has plenty of power for me

 

How much did the swap end up costing? I don’t want to waste money on a big bore kit.

 

Anyone interested in any of these parts?
$200 takes it all or I can break them up.

Parts are from a 2018 triumph street triple

 

Got some seat time!! 100 miles to nowhere! It was great! Except the heat index of 102. As crazy as I thought I was, I saw quite a few other crazies out riding! Ride safe y’all!

 

I was getting my fairing finalized. I didn’t want to pay $100 for the mounting brackets because they were easy enough to make myself. That and I had a few people come by the shop for CMCs.

I’ll be out testing it tomorrow.

 

I like that you can do so much work on your own bike!

 

I am thinking of purchasing a Honda CRF300L dual sport. Want to hitch it to my Tacoma when I go on longer camping trips.

 

Can never go wrong with a honda, I say go for it!
