Guys apologies for the sound (up's and down's), unfortunately I edited late at night and I didn't proof listen fully to the post production edit. Hopefully you all still enjoyed the final episode of the 200 rear wheel series. Thanks for the support (and understanding on this vlog)

@NoMonkeyBizz 7 лет назад

Motonewbrider thanks mate, your Vlogs are dope love your bike also been a Sub for a while bud since u had the other sporty. hope u Sub back keep making vids mate cheers.

@timothyrinaldi6609 6 лет назад

Not fan of small tall rear flare I rather put original flare back on it will look more lowered and sleeker

@grinch_do 5 лет назад

Motonewbrider Excellent mate I prefer this way than you add some music and talking on top of it 😂😂😂 Keep biking 🏍🏍🏍 Thanks for vid 👌

@leeleeblackhurst1768 3 года назад

Can you do this and still keep the back seat? Maybe without cutting so much off the back ?

@twinvader 7 лет назад

Fair play to you for going through the cost with us. A lot of RU-vidrs tend to keep that sort of thing hush-hush and I can never understand why. Cheers for the content, mate.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks mate - I think it also helps other expectations on going for this mod (understanding the cost)

@bonnythebest694 7 лет назад

I am not a Harley rider but as a fellow motorcyclist I can totally appreciate your excitement towards this conversion. You have a great channel and I always look forward to your videos. Maybe one day we can meet up, would love to hear the bike and maybe have a cheeky go on it 😉 all the best!

@snappyfish 7 лет назад

You can probably meet up, but hands off his Harley :) (probably what he'd say)

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Allen Christian with a polite smile as I say it

@michaelsmith1094 6 лет назад

Allen, I am from the states and I heard the word cheeky on a Mel Gibson movie about the American Revolution. The British Col. called him a cheeky sort of fellow. What does cheeky mean in the Brit. lingo? Thanks. Been wondering about it for yrs.

@ronscott7546 7 лет назад

That little sporty came out kinda sweet and the exhaust sounds sweet I can hear it from the states

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Ha ha probably mate.... She is quite loud :)

@danielloureiro2114 7 лет назад

That exhaust is a monster! Love the sound!

@halcyon1030 7 лет назад

I am amazed at the sense of joy you have. In America where these bikes are plentiful, these are the choice for low income riders. I am not a person who cares what others think, but these bikes are frowned on by many a big twin rider. It only matters what you think and I like the finished product. Keep on rocking and feeling the breeze.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Henry Wilson that's a real shame, if that is the attitude. The sportster is a more cost efficient way of jumping on a harley, however by the time you've customised it, it has the same retaile prices as a Breakout in some cases. I've even sat on a Sportster that is in the £40,000 range. For people that snub the sportster as you mention they are pure jack asses ( as the yanks say ). I could afford a fat boy s if I wanted to, but nothing gives me a greater smile than my sportster. Thanks for watching buddy 👍

@previouspartners 7 лет назад

great build i got a few question you may have already gotten. First off what kind of lights are those (rear lights and Turn signals.) ? secondly how did you get them on the swing arm? and lastly product description?

@simonrogers3594 Месяц назад

Looks awesome with a 200 on. You said you can fit a 180 was it straight on, anything extra you need for this, like wheels or anything else, I would be great full for a reply, thank you.

@ivanalba5723 7 лет назад

you got the most incredible gorgeous Sportster i've seen on RU-vid (and i've seen a lot of videos). congratulations!

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks man, it's not everyones flavour but I love it.

@RufioMini 7 лет назад

She's a gem! You'll have to consider bringing her out to the Bike 4 Life festival, just over the border from beautiful Wales and attracted 6000 riders last year!

@Tamworth_Rider 4 года назад

I know this video is old now, but thats a beauty pal. Looking to get myself a sportster now think its time to put the gixxer to commuter status and a HD for cool factor

@homedroneaerialphotography1828 7 лет назад

Love the 200 mod, not a fan of the pipes, looking forward to seeing what comes next

@taviswhite4777 6 лет назад

I love the chain drive. Hell yes. This is an amazing platform to start off with. Cheers.

@rahalkulatunge9837 5 лет назад

did you have to change the swingarm to fit the 200?

@jamiestormautomotive2137 7 лет назад

Bargain . Looks awesome and the workmanship from RBK was pure quality 👌

@sammyb883 7 лет назад

Looks and sounds awesome man! Worth the wait, looking forward to more videos on it.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks mate - me too.

@motok.l.i.m9316 2 года назад

good day !!! the exact size of the rubber can you ask? Will rubber 200 fit on the stock wheel ????

@timevans5048 2 года назад

what front wheel is that?!?!?!

@davesurrey5889 7 лет назад

glad to see you back on your scoot

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Me too Dave.... The suns back out so riding as much as possible.

@davesurrey5889 7 лет назад

our climates are very similar,with the amount of rainfall we get lol

@cryptoloser93 Год назад

Why did you point the exhaust upward instead of downward? I can’t imagine that is very comfortable with the exhaust blowing right at your leg….

@OFFICIALThunderRoad 6 лет назад

Where'd you get the tail/brake lights and turn signal lights? Brand? Part number? Very interested in these

@BigMoeFo 7 лет назад

First off the shot of the back tire is sick... can't believe those indicator lights are legal....njoy!

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

LOL.... To be honest mate the number plate cover was a last minute thing, for some reason I chucked it on. But you're right it doesn't make a difference.

@faithbiker8262 7 лет назад

Love the sound! Awesome looking pipes! Like the gold chain also.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks fella, hope you are well in the US!

@michaelsmith1094 6 лет назад

Ya, what is with the chain anyway? Racing? Looks? Just the one thing I didn't quite understand.

@n1xxl 7 лет назад

Hi, did you post the suppliers list? What and where did you get the chain conversion more the front sprocket, is it offset? Thanks Neil

@hendra200880 6 лет назад

Awesome works..luv it..i just wondering..does the bike getting higher after u changing the wheels or more lower?have u modified ur 48's more radical by lower the height or using a monoshock..why u changing the belt by using the chain?what size front and rear sproket?..and what about the speed is it get more faster after using the chain?

@JDM_DAISUKI 7 лет назад

really happy for you mate!!!! love the "WHAT THE" look from a few people when you ride through the town hahaha enjoy ya dirty stop out 😉😉

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Ha ha .... I need more singing though, I'm slacking mate.

@JDM_DAISUKI 7 лет назад

Motonewbrider ah all good, you like your really busy mate!! keep up the great work!! am so jealous of your new bike ahhaah

@buknono1984 6 лет назад

looks awesome....noticed everyone that dos this mod converts to chain....is it a must to make it work or can you still stick with belt when converting to a wider rear wheel on a sportster?

@jmbravo02 6 лет назад

Excelent, understand back wheel/rim is 17x3.5, what about tire size. Love your bike.

@derp119 5 лет назад

I believe it said so in the ledger he posted. Had the tires and sizes i think

@Seeeeyaaaa 5 лет назад

Im sure that exhaust would have you a little hot around the beanbag on a long summers day..love the big wheel conversion, i always liked the later model wheels better on the 48..wonder if it would be possible to widen the later model rear rim? Not a bad effort.

@ajni957 7 лет назад

no excuses now, 3-4 vids a week now you've got your bike back! :P

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

1 a week i'm aiming for mate. LOL

@archenermy 7 лет назад

Russ did you proud looks spot on i will be looking out for you when i'm out and about probably hear you first mind :)

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Mate defo.... Hopefully soon.

@pauls3696 5 лет назад

Lovely bet your made up by it. Looks stunning bike! Love the sound.

@robbiemckay1064 4 года назад

It’s a crime that these don’t come with a 200 standard. Looks so much better

@abhishekilke9426 7 лет назад

Damn, This is LOUD! If i do this to my bike i might go insane!

@thisandthat1265 7 лет назад

Nice mods and reasonable price. Just need to get out and ride, better weather s on it way.

@bhavikpandya7398 6 лет назад

Hi there dude I like the transformation of your golden 48 like wide tyre exhaust and chain drive nice work

@Merc-vv3de 7 лет назад

Looks awesome mate! Nice mods, have fun!

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks Dion!

@0LightsCameraAction0 6 лет назад

Man I love the conversion. That would look so great on my 48 😌

@jonathanmorgan3875 5 лет назад

Bike is sweet, I’ve just bought my first 48 and fitted a stage1! How’s your range? I’m not getting passed 55

@RGimeldo 7 лет назад

hey mate, do you get to use the whole area of the tyre before the pegs start to scratch?

@albertoalcolumbre7452 7 лет назад

I like your exhaust sound! Mine is Just like that. Loud!

@svenp.2424 7 лет назад

I really wonder these black brakes how they look after some miles. Absolutely beauty bike.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

I'll keep everyone posted mate.

@tattooedbill1 7 лет назад

Lovely job. Looks and sounds epic

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks man.

@tsogtmunkh 7 лет назад

Hey man nicely done!!! Awesome sound. Do they did the straight pipe with no buffer? how did you tune it? Thanks in advance. Ride safe.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Yes there is no baffling. To be honest I haven't tuned it, I think the sensor is doing what it can.

@thebeardedyorkshireman8368 6 лет назад

Beautiful bike, what was the cost of the exhaust?

@BFD15i 7 лет назад

Around 2.5k without VAT, including labour, I guess. TBH, that seems to be a pretty fair deal. Considering the work-quality and the result, I thought it would be more expensive. Nice job, nice bike! (even though the exhaust is a bit too loud for my taste)

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

LOL.... I don't think the exhaust will be a crowd pleaser :)

@Youtube_Globetrotter 6 лет назад

1794 £ was just the rear wheel? But what was the total cost of everything he did?

@falange65 4 года назад

Ciao. Vorrei fare gli stessi lavori visti nel video ad una 48 nuova, ma sono in Italia. Voi lavorate anche con clienti italiani?

@vivekmalkan6326 6 лет назад

The exhaust end is benden upside.. during rain it won’t harm engine ? Just a question

@ab4469 7 лет назад

love the conversion on your bike, what the rear light that you use and front turn signal light? thanks

@solidjohn6856 4 года назад

I love the turn signals great idea

@vsntyn6855 4 года назад

Goodmorning sir. I have 2017 iron 883 , I was just wondering what size is this front and rear tires?

@stanislavzajicek5314 5 лет назад

Hi. Would be possible to get some info about that Rough Crafts seat? I literally can’t find any specifications about it. Thanks a lot.

@BigMoeFo 7 лет назад

Bout freakin time!!! Congrats

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

LOL.... I know mate.

@philcuore 7 лет назад

the built minus a few TBA is RM10,000 in Malaysian currency and we can buy cars with this money. demn ... awesome ride btw.

@danielterry2767 2 года назад

Love this channel, called sykes HD today would love a 250mm back wheel on my 2018 xl1200cx

@GrecoRoman123 7 лет назад

Fuck'n hell man, it sounds like there is no baffling in those pipes, and the exhaust tips are just under your right side. Do you get a tone in your ears after a ride?

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

GrecoRoman123 nope... it's fine ( for me anyway )

@dazlarg 7 лет назад

Dude the fat tyre looks sweet.. I like your air intake too .. can I ask what that cost you and did you need to remap after installation?

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Tyre was £160 mate on the rear, cant remember the cost of the intake but it's Joker Machine. Didn't remap after install - did try with my V&H FP3 but was pointless.

@Jobbazz 7 лет назад

Hey just found your channel, great vids man! I have one question does that cut fender still stop dirt from flying up onto your back on a rainy day? Just curious - Cheers

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Awesome mate, hope you enjoy the content. Mate that fender wont stop anything .... LOL.... However this bike is not my commuter ride, it's my pleasure ride for when I'm off in the sun.

@HarleyDayRider 7 лет назад

Bike is looking and sounding great. Ride Safe

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks fella.

@nortonkev7533 4 года назад

Looks nice good job just needs a low Easy riders stretched tank 👍

@TrondOleJensen 7 лет назад

What kind of brake/turn signal is that and what kind of mount is that?

@NecKruM 7 лет назад

wow!!! nice mod!!! and the sound!!! hooo yeah!!!! Loud pipes save lifes!!! ;-)

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

LOL - Cheers mate.

@korintusnara7563 7 лет назад

How about the acceleration ? Is there any difference ? Nice bike btw, greeting from indonesia

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Hello.... Compared to my V&H Grenades I would say the acceleration is slower.

@kaligurung1479 6 лет назад

It’s amazing 👀 good sounds good where is this place mate i am sure after seen yours it’s time for change thanks for your videos

@snappyfish 7 лет назад

Great looking bike before, amazing looking bike after. Well done!

@dresign8148 Год назад

@frankiefigzz1 5 лет назад

Fking awesome!! Love the exhaust great work!! I want one!!

@high-1channel962 4 года назад

That monster look good.. the sound is good but the exhaust i think all the heat goes to your leg..

@ridingdigital 7 лет назад

looks great mate - need to change out those stock pegs though!

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

100% agree they look horrid :)

@williekaufhold4453 7 лет назад

THE bike sounds Awesome.

@DarioCruz92 7 лет назад

She is a totally trick ride, Newb. She definitely cost a pretty penny, but I think it is well worth it. Enjoy with good health, bud :-)

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Hey Buddy, glad you enjoyed it - I think its worth it also mate. Just been out for the day on her and I couldn't stop smiling.

@ronniedeciantis1978 5 лет назад

Looks great !

@TheLastXeno 3 года назад

Beautiful

@tomhockenberry4862 7 лет назад

cool as Hell. the exaust sounds good just be careful on wet roads with that fat tire. looks awesome.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Will do fella - it's super dry at the mo, so the bikes sticking really well. Avon Cobra's are an amazing tyre.

@OctaviusPelagius 7 лет назад

Motonewbrider awesome ride. I've followed the series for quite a while! What do you think of the pipes' noise? Do you use ear protection? Is it your daily rider/commuter?

@im4sale 6 лет назад

Can you come to texas and put a phat tyre kit on mine for 1100 quid?

@jerryhayden8720 5 лет назад

Yeah those 🔥pipes🔥 aren't for me. I like the sound just not the height. Each to their own. Nice ride. 👍

@markstanley980 7 лет назад

Beautiful bike.

@moorshound3243 7 лет назад

glad you seem happy.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks mate, I am fella :)

@harleydave2316 7 лет назад

The bike looks and sounds AMAZING!! Great Job!! But dang dude, normalize your video sound. I kept having to turn up and down the volume.

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

I've mentioned it above but unfortunately I edited late at night and didn't proof listen to the post edit - sorry man. I'm bloody gutted. Anyway onto the next one.

@King-pt6zq 7 лет назад

why weren't the rims spinning on the car @ 9:17 ?

@harwoods11 6 лет назад

no chain or sprocket guard?? Does look the bollox though

@christophertrueblood4328 7 лет назад

I've seen a few of your videos, great channel. I've got a question though. Are those custom pipes? I love the look and like to do something similar on the 2018 iron i just ordered.

@01Bellend 7 лет назад

Lovely job

@Motonewbrider 7 лет назад

Thanks man

@mytube24able1 6 лет назад

Link for those micro signal indicators?

@Funebresto 4 года назад

Thinner tire in the front? Don't like it, The wiee front wheel along with the peanut tank is the main thing of the 48

@shawnjoseph7522 3 года назад

What is that exhaust

@ironwarrior8890 7 лет назад

It's a pity Harley didn't design the bike so you could just replace the stock rear for a 200 boot...on the vn900 and m800 that's all you have to do... just the price of the tyre and getting it fitted.
