    Yes - ask Bob the Builder.

    Don't you mean the bobber builder? Coz he'd build anything for a bob, giving you a bob a job.....

    (Bobber-job? Oh forget it.......)

    My brother just bought a hard tail triumph that we are going to turn into an old school bobber. Lots of work to go but will put pics up as we go.

    Don't modify anything, just put a seat on it and ride the wheels off it.
    Brill!

    Bobbers are very cool and popular at the moment. Have you thought about buying a purpose built Bobber Style Frame and starting the build from scratch. We have a lot of different options available. One of my favourites is our Rockabilly Rod - a retro styled Knuckelhead Bobber . Check out http://www.batoutofhell.co.nz for details or give me a call anytime.

    This is a typical Old School Bobber - Is this the type of thing you are thinking of?

    Pic 3 of the original post closely followed by the Injuns does it for me.
