Fat Yama Part II

Just a couple shots to show you the progress that’s been made over the Minnesota winter. It’s warming up here and the bobber is about ready to go on it’s first ride, only to be taken apart and painted.

At the moment we’re tying up the small details such as the sissy bar, wiring, brake light, license bracket, etc.. all the things you don’t notice as much. Anway, I’m hoping the bike will be done just in time for spring. Here she is again, enjoy!

    The Ridged rear section on that thing should be put into production.
    It’s really clean and well thought out from what i’ve seen. can’t wait to see the finished ride.

    the fatboy wheels cost me 100 bucks off of craigslist, not too shabby but i’ve even seen some for cheaper. as for the springer it’s a -4 under dna i got off of ebay for around 450 shipped. thanks for the comments guys!

    So David,

    I had watched this build on another site for sometime, looks great

    fatboy rims apparently fit a dna springer …good to know as I was considering doing that .

    can you still fit a floating brake in there and are they using 3/4 bearings for the FB rim.

    it seems you’ve got one tucked in on the left side but I can’t make out the details

    also how wide a tire can you go with the dna. The rims should be 3.00 wide so a 130 tire at 5.00 is reasonable. Is there enough width up front for a 5 inch tire?

    Dave,
    What did you do for the rear disc brake and rear sproket?

    I think I’m going to go with this setup on a CB750 I just picked up. Instead of hard-tailing it through, I’m going to put rigid struts in, drop the rear about 2 or 3 inches.
