In the universe of preparation, there is Several large families like the scramble, THE Café Racer and the bobber, to quote the best known.
Each of these families has defined characteristics and each has internal currents.
Indeed, there are similarities that can be grouped into subfamily.
Today we put our finger on a type of modern bobber called the Bobber Sport or Sports custom.
DNA of this type of bobber is that of the original bobber associated with the sportiness, to the performance and muscles.
It is a question of making a machine bobber more bestial. No more "chill" walks, we want performance; No more minimalist, we want large pieces; No more Springer forks, we want an effective chassis.
At first we will see examples of Bobber Sport Sports custom then define the common characteristics.
Machine tank is a French preparer that we have already seen on the blog of Remmotorcycle. Indeed, their preparations are a particular soul that makes them unique.
Their job is to sports customs and cruisers.
They worked a lot on Indian Motorcycle but diversify and make BMW R18 Now, and it's worth the detour.
On the program of this Indian Scout, we directly notice the inverted fork and the widen ray rims.
There is also a pair of gas sport shock absorbers, brakes performance Crazy among others.
Precisely, we were talking about the BMW R18, Original FCR, another French preparer took care of it.
Original FCR is a preparer who works a lot on Triumph But he recently offered us a BMW R18 Sport Edition :
Black engine paint brings sportiness. This is associated very well with the metal gray of the whole as well as the small black saddle in Alcantara.
In terms of the significant elements of this preparation, we see the short exhaust line which stops under the engine.
No inverted fork here but forks to increase the volume and therefore make the motorcycle more muscular.
On the other hand, the rims were changed by an 18/17 inch set instead of 19/16 inches of origin. FCR remained wiser than TM in this department.

Another new bobber present on the market, there Triumph Bobber was entitled to special treatment on the part of the English of Thornton HUDRED which made him a complete motor and aesthetic program.
As you can see in the video below, the nice cruiser has undergone a transplant in the engine and is now more 200 horses.
Indeed, a superchard was installed and an engine preparation was carried out.
In order to suit this new power, braking and damping have been reviewed.
Thus a inverted fork was installed like the Bobber TFC model.
The rims were also widened so that the motorcycle is of course on these supports. What beauty.
Here is a video of the beast:
Fortunately, the new sports people make more than 200 horsepower otherwise they would be overtaken by bobbers.
In a slightly different register, because the base is in a different style, here is the Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight Directed by Australians Ellaspede Custom Motorcycles.
This preparer, quite unknown in Europe, carry out various preparations on all types of motorcycles.
In the radius of changes, this 48 is equipped with a large inverted front fork. The wheels remain in 16 inches but the rear wheel is wider passing through 5.5 inches.
Original unconvincing shock absorbers have been replaced by Ohlins which raises the back of the motorcycle about 35 mm.
To add sportiness, a 2 in 1 exhaust line D&D Bobcat-Carbon was installed in the manner of clubstyles .
An air filter Max HP Machine Performance as well as controller Daytona Twin Tech are there to improve the performance of the EVO engine of 1200cc.
Important element to make the motorcycle sportier, footrests RSD are in the rear position.
In addition to these modifications, this Sportster retains many original parts.

Walzwerk is the German BMW specialist.
It is therefore natural that the news BMW R18, which excites all the preparers, was entitled to treatment by the German firm.
On the program, nothing extravagant, it is not the kind of house, but a vision refined And more sporty Bavaroise.
Walzwerk offers parts for this R18 And this production is the perfect standard.
We like exhaust outlets under the engine SC Project, the new rear mudguard with 3 in 1 approved integrated into the supports (!) As well as the small solo saddle.
The wheels, too, were changed by a 16 -inch rim at the back and a 19 -inch rim at the front.
Here are more photos of this preparation: R18 BMW by the motorcycle preparer Walzwerk (cafe-racer-only.com)
Tell us which Bobber Sport You prefer between that of FCR, Machine tank And Walwerk.
After seeing different examples, we can look at the different characteristics so that you can make your Sport Bobber.
Essential element to optimize the cycle part of a bike, the inverted fork also gives a more look muscular at the motorcycle.
If below, an inverted fork on a Indian Scout Bobber Ready to make times.
Here a close -up on the R18 of Machine tank With this incredible wheel.
Reviewing the size and width of the wheels will adjust the behavior of the motorcycle and is a good complement to a new system of front and rear shock absorbers.
Below the shock absorber Olhins Sport installed on the R18 of Machine tank.
Bobbers are not recognized for their suspensions. As part of a upgrade Sport, the "new shock absorber" box must be checked to make the most of the motorcycle.
To illustrate the saddle, here is the model of Walzwerk on one BMW R18.
The Bobber Sport is a selfish style. A lonely pleasure that others could not understand.
Below the engine preparation Internship 1 on one Sportster Composed of an exhaust, a sport air filter and reprogramming.
Once the cycle part is revised, the engine can be vitamin to make the motorcycle sportier.
The preparation of the engine does not really have a limit (apart from the portfolio and the regulation).
You can go until the installation of a turbo or a large swap.
The new exhaust is part of the engine preparation panoply.
In addition to improving performance, it improves the look of preparation.
The model produced by Baak For Triumph Bobber is the perfect example.
To this can be added the improvement of the brakes in the event of chassis and engine optimization.
As well as all the other pieces that are usually changed for a preparation such as the handlebars, the commodos, the mudguards, the lighthouse, the rear lights, the indicators etc ...
Usually, the base represents the essential part of the budget and when the base costs in the € 20K €, this is not for all budgets.
This is true for the models presented above, but it is possible to produce Bobber Sport on more accessible bases such as the Honda Shadow or the Yamaha Virago.
I haven't seen a prep yet Bobber Sport with more accessible donors. If you know, Share them.
If the Bobber Sport are too nice and you have a higher budget, the next step is the custom muscles!
We will see more very soon.
What do you think of Bobber Sport? You validate?
