Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
you need some elaborate exhausting. I still think danglepuffer, but I also like the idea of say, showerhead or watering can, or several random lengths and sizes of pipe welded inside a funnel and poking out all willy nills
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
That signs awesome, what does the bottom say?
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Your right Will, I just don’t which direction to go.
It says don’t protest with bricks in your hands or guns strapped to your chest.
Pretty cool sign to be in front of a church in the south.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
I'm not sure how Bōsōzoku this is, but a bunch of silly faux exhaust parts would be hysterical. Like 4 pipes welded as side bleeds to each other or something.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
found this, kinda what I was thinking, not much has not been done haha. good inspiring dumbexhaust. I dig
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Whoa that's Rad! I think I can make a turned up stingier like that. Super cool design.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Ah shiiit, My sporty needs this!
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Sir Chris, you lucky dog for visiting Japan and gettin a taste of the culture. Dream vacation for me... without the wife and kid obviously. Wish I could join in on the fun, but I will leave that to the experts.
If a trike moped exists, I'd love to see a camber job done on the back tires. That would be hilarious.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
I had a worksman trike (bicycle) a while back. I wanted to put a single car wheel in the back. Like in the middle, so it looked all dragster style. I had these 13x10 wheels from when I used to race autocross with my Honda, but I never got around to it.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
I picked up another express over the weekend that's titled. So now I can have a "legal" boso bike lol....I'm swapping all of the parts over to this frame now and figured the urban bars I had hanging in my garage looked cooler so I made them work. I think I'm gonna try to find some pocket bike fairings and extra lights. Then I'll paint the whole thing, maybe(undecided).....
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Pocket bike farings would be rad! That is actually a perfect platform to build a min one on! Love it!
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
YASSSS I like where all this is going. keep it up guys! I Finally got a headlight on last night. I had this vintage Marchal I grabbed at the junkyard a few years back. Still a lot of work to be done. but I'm working on it here and there.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Sir Chris, thats not bosu enough. You need to go down to the parts store and drop a few hundred on some of those extremely bright LED light bars. That should be enough to get folks attention... plus see deer coming from a mile away lol

Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
so as I was adding the Urban handle bars my buddy, had the greatest idea ever and it worked beautifully, now I have a dual forked springer thing LMAO.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
I was gonna try for a triple fork but it would have been too heavy and there was some tire clearance issues so I backed off the crazy a little.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
Double Telescoping Girder Boso forks are great.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
turns out a Tomos shock spring is the exact same length as an express stem tube!
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
That is amazing
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
holy shit those double express forks are amazing
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
YSR50 fairings would work great here
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
its no where near done, but its sooo fun to ride lol. I wanna add some led lights to add some zazz.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
That is pretty rad.
Re: ✮✩Bōsōzoku Bike Build Off✩✮
I love that white snake seat Ben. I had the long seat version on my maxi that got stolen. I also like the lines it makes with the cross bar and chopper forks.
