Hugo Stiglitz - RoadStar Bobber

Doesn't make a difference once it's mounted, just roll with it.

Okey doke.

Hugo is a darksider. I dig the way these tires look, but gotta say - that's a sharp edge. Anyone else ever ran one of these on the rear?

I have run this tire for 3-4 years now. Rides great. It’s on a hardtail with a foot clutch too. I can definitely feel when I lean over onto the edge, but it is totally manageable. It’s never presented an issue with sticking or turning. It’s good for burnouts as well. 👍🏻

Right on! Glad to hear it. Thanks man.

Quick mock up while I work on the rear wheel and try to finish up the wiring.

Got the rear wheel put back together. New bearings, new rubber. This tire is a lot taller than the stock one. No rubbing issues sitting still, but I'm sure that will change with all the potholes in Columbus. I managed to break off the brakestay bolt inside the swingarm. Funny how something simple like putting a wheel on can turn in to a lot of work I didn't plan to do.

looking damn good!
I kept the rear seat horns too, I did cut a slice out of the back and lean them a bit further backward though.

The original carb had a seized pilot mixture screw. Tried drilling it out, but that didn't work. So I bought a carb body and built one good carb from the two. Upgraded to a Barnett spring clutch conversion. Never dreamed it would make such a difference, but it has a Kung Fu grip on the plates and this thing rips like a raped ape.

Still have a lot to do, but I'm just riding the crap out of it right now. I'll do the rest over the build season.

Mounted the taillight. I'll do the paint/powdercoat over the winter.

I just finished up a temporary paint job. I plan on doing a permanent paint job once I'm completely done with the build. This will do for now though.

I like this Bobber!

Too bad about the problem with the carb.
