SUZUKI VL800 BOBBER
This SUZUKI VL800 BOBBER has been a work of transformation of motorcycle in bobber style made in our cafe racer customizations workshop in Malaga (Spain).
In the Lord Drake Kustoms team, we are never closed to work with custom bikes of different brands and models; and in this case it was a very special bike and difficult to find in these times, a SUZUKI VL800.
A NEW LIFE
The owner of this classic SUZUKI, was a customer from Cordoba who already followed the work of Fran Manen (owner of LDK) and his team for quite some time and left in the hands of Lord Drake Kustoms this bike that had been standing for several years and who wanted to give it a new life.
Francisco Alí Manén chose to make a bobber style transformation with it, because for this type of chassis is one of the styles of motorcycle customization that give better results in terms of aesthetics and comfort.
MODIFICATIONS
First, the whole bike was disassembled and mechanically overhauled, because after so many years of being stopped, several components had deteriorated. Subsequently we started with the rear of this SUZUKI VL800 BOBBER where a bobber style rear fender was fabricated, the shocks were changed for lower ones and a handmade license plate holder was installed.
Bobber seat and fenders
Handlebar
At the front, the handlebars were replaced, the front suspension was modified and the front fender was shortened. All this was completed with a bobber seat without springs and other details such as exhaust with heat tape and custom tails, lighting, rubber fork bellows, digital odometer motogadget mini, etc., etc..
BLACK AND YELLOW
The final touch was a gloss black paint with lines and graphics in yellow, where we must highlight the medical logo or the number 88 that have a great meaning for its owner that he is a doctor.
HOMOLOGATION
As a final result we have this SUZUKI VL800 BOBBER that has been homologated for Spanish territory after its customization at Lord Drake Kustoms, and that currently rolls through the streets of Cordoba from the hands of its owner.
