Ever since I started building bikes i wanted to build a xs 650 bobber. Last week a buddy of mine blessed me with a build that somebody abandoned. When he told me about this project he had no idea what it was, but because he knew im always involved in some sort of build he decided to donate this to me. Needless to say i graciously accepted his donation and when he came to drop it off, lo and behold, here is that 650 project that i always wanted to do. I decided to try and do this as a virtual build whereas you guys would post your ideas and then i would choose which one i would use. The frame is a softail and i will fit the motor today. I will then post some more pics and the first subject would be what style of handlebars and seat would we use. Attached is pics of the frame and motor and a style. Im not sure if the apehangers would fit the frame and tank style? Any suggestions?
