ink face Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 well the only problem with that plan seeking is that i really don't like the way the older sportsters look. maybe the hard tail conversion kit would help, but i just never really started liking the looks of them till the 08's, and i can't really put my finger on whats that different about them. the lines just look cleaner. but you make a good point, it would be a lot cooler to have a more custom bike for cheaper at that.

seeking Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 i dont really like any stock sportster. the nightster is an improvement, but only kinda. they all still look cheap and plastic to me. im not hating on stock bikes or anything either, i just dont really see em being worth the money they're charging for em. you're paying a shit ton for a name that pretty much just wins by default. spend some time on chopcult.com you'll start to see the possibilities that are out there.

seeking Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 oh, also, you were talking about being cramped on one... hardtail fixes that, cause you can easily stretch the frame out. i know it's real cool to rock mid controls these days, but im 6'3"... fuck being all squished up with my knees hitting me in the chest. seeks/who just wants his fucking bike to be done so he can ride it instead of talking about it.

Soup Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 You dont need a garage. If you live on the first floor or if there's an elevator you're golden. Just dump the girl and find one with a garage. 1957 2009 I dunno dude. To me they look very similar. On both of them i'd be removing the airbox, chain guard, headlight, front fairings, headers, seat etc. Only difference is I actually like the front fork and spoked wheels more.

Why you gotta rain on me? Why you gotta talk shit about my bike? LOL!! C'mon... I likes my BMW. It's not a custom bopper but it does what it's suppose to. And is way comfy when I'm riding for a few hours. Imagine touring on one of those boppers or a chopper, shit would be a hemorroid in the making. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 There were always two different breeds of fixed gear riders. The distinctions between them are that one knows their shit about components, the history, build their own bikes, and ride hundreds of miles a week. Then there are the guys who just wanted to know what it felt like to ride a fixie so they'd either build a cheapass conversion or spent ridiculous money for a fixed gear at their LBS. You can tell the difference in breed just by looking at them without ever seeing their bikes. Same goes for motorcycles. That's why my favorite bikes are looped out homemade rat bikes and short chops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
