springer front end question NEW
by: Anonymous

Im about to change the wide glide front end on my shovelhead to a springer. Im using a paughco frame with a 16" rear wheel. My problem is im constantly scraping my primary during left turns. I like the height of your bike so I was wondering what rim and tire height you had on the rear and if the frontend was extended any? I was thinking a 18 inch rear rim and a two inch over frontend would solve my height problem. Thank you in advance for your answer and i can't wait to see the finished project.

Hi Rob
I didn't realize I just did your inspection on this thing. Too funny. Drop by and see my bobber project when you have a chance.

Nice Bobber Project
by: Tim Scott

Hi Rob, I'm not sure if you got my last message. My computer was not behaving. I am building something similar to you and I also live in Victoria BC. I would love to see you project. Maybe get some ideas for my own. You can get ahold of me through Phoenix Cycle. Ted will give you my phone number or my email address.
Thanks

Lookin good
by: Tim Scott

Hi Rob, The bike so far looks great. I too am building a rigid springer with a 200 in rear. Funny thing is I also live in Victoria BC. I am using a 95 in twin cam B in mine with a jims fat five speed. E mail me @ timscottairbrush@shaw.ca if you want to hook up. Be cool to see your ride in person. Hopefully talk to you soon.

springer
by: Virago, Brian

Hi Rob
Your bike looks good, even unfinished. What kind of a springer are you using for your project? Do you know if there are springers out there that are fairly universal? Maybe fit a metric bike????
Thanks.
Brian
