1973 Triumph 750 Bobber Motorcycle

Posted on January 28, 2013 by Matt Storms

You will see that we have a 1973 TRIUMPH 750 unit 5 speed from The Factory Metal Works. This little motorcycle has some power and the sweet looks of a bobber. With the front fender gone and a springer front end on the bike that screams the 1970’s bobber to me. The springer front end and with almost everything stripped down and ripped off that is not needed makes it light and nimble. 1973 TRIUMPH 750 unit 5 speed from The Factory Metal Works was featured on the cover of Cycle Source magazine in December 2011 and was a main feature in Back Street Hero’s … Continue reading →

Honda CB350F Bobber Motorcycle

Posted on January 25, 2013 by Matt Storms

We have a classic Honda CB350F bobber motorcycle. The Honda CB350F is a four-cylinder, four-stroke, 347 cc motorcycle based on the larger versions of the day and was thought of as Honda’s “one-up” to the other motorcycle companies. It was manufactured in Japan from 1972 to 1974 and was “the smallest capacity multi-cylinder motorcycle ever to enter into full-scale production.” I have always thought that the best bobber motorcycle would be the smaller engine bike. That way you have a light bike and is easy to maneuver around. As we look this bobber over from the front we can see the front fender as usual is gone. It looks to me … Continue reading →

1979 Yamaha Super-Rat YZ400

Posted on January 23, 2013 by Matt Storms

This motorcycle is from 1979, this YZ is from a time long past when the only four-stroke dirt bikes around were low-riding, rack-toting farm bikes. This Yamaha YZ400 has a refresh that has brought it 30 years into the future of today. As much as I like the look overall we can dig into this motorcycle from the front to the back. There is no fender which is cool and even though I could not pass inspection in Utah, I would ride it. I love the dropped handlebars. I did not know that the gauges were actually mounted in the headlight, … Continue reading →

X132 Hellcat Bobber Motorcycle

Posted on October 1, 2012 by Matt Storms

Some might have seen the X132 Hellcat before made by Confederate Motorcycles. If you have not see it nor have ever heard about it let me go over a few of the specs on it. The cost for what you see below is $50,000 bucks, yep that is the cost. It is super fast and has some serious muscle in the 132 cubic inches (2,163 cc); 56° Fuel Injected V-Twin engine. I love the aggressive styling of the gearbox and the naked exhaust. I would be worried that I would burn my leg but that is why we are supposed to … Continue reading →
