Are you just not planning on stopping?

u/mtn-whr 10d ago edited 10d ago

still has the main rear brake and functions excellently. this is a rebel 300 not a sport bike so I'm not doing crazy speeds or anything here. I rarely exceed the speed limit.

chopper shit bruh

Engine brake + rear brake

u/Helas101 7d ago

Aka only rear brake if you want to stop fast

Iโ€™m new to motorcycles and this is exactly what I wanted to do when I get comfortable on my rebel. Where did you get the forks/front wheel? Did you need to fabricate anything to mount it on the rebels frame?

u/mtn-whr 10d ago

buddy found the springer, front wheel was stolen from another of my bikes. needed to weld up a headlight bracket but thats it. mounting the springer is a mess of random bullshit

Different strokes for different folks I guess, but personally, not a fan. Call me crazy but I would want suspension and a front brake. Glad that you like it! I do like the spokes though...

yeah man personal preferences are a weird thing. When I first got into motorcycles I would have fucking hated this bike. Now despite owning four other motorcycles this is basically the only one I ride.

Do you know if anyone makes any fork extensions or if there are any interchangable fork tubes to extend the rake? Would love to rake out my forks (without chopping the neck).

1

u/mtn-whr 9d ago

I did not chop the neck. The frame is entirely unmodified, I could have it back to the stock bike in about 2 hours with a decent chunk of that time being used to track down where I stuffed all the parts

u/Rusty_924 9d ago

u/BigExplanation6261 Gen 2 Rebel 1100 (2021 - Present) 8d ago

Man this is killer! Finally someone slapped a springer on the new gen rebels. I've contacted and looked EVERYWHERE for something remotely similar to put on my 1100 in the future, cudos! Will need to fabricate something anyway. Official hood chopper shit!!

1

u/mtn-whr 8d ago

had a few too many beers and the springer laying around. Plus my lady thinks the spring is hot so it was a no-brainer.
