Welcome back to another season of Saturday Sportster! This season Tim Fiorucci of Fiorucci Fabrications builds a Harley-Davidson Ironhead Sportster from start to finish. In this series you will learn how easy it is to take a Ironhead Sportster motor and stock frame and turn it into a killer custom chopper motorcycle. All while utilizing a ton of parts we offer right here at lowbrowcustoms.com. With this season we are taking the technical and fabrication skills up a notch but walking you through each step and really diving in deep. Our hope with this series is to give everyone watching this more confidence in building custom choppers. And Just like the last series, each of the jobs we are doing to this bike can be knocked out on a Saturday!
In this first episode, Tim starts off with an Ironhead motor and stock frame. He walks you through how to determine what style Ironhead frame you may have and what bolt-on hardtail kit will work best for your frame. You will then see the process on how to install the frame and mount the motor in place. Lastly Tim shows you how to install the rear wheel onto your newly installed hardtail frame. So break out those tools, grab a beverage and let's get to work!
WHAT PARTS WERE USED TO BUILD THE SATURDAY SPORTSTER 2?

Happy to have Saturday Sportster back again! But I’m missing the chingas and woos

Well, Todd will be back for season three! He is ready to rock, but we are still filming and editing season 2! Stay tuned :)

So happy this series is back for another season!!

@TheDude13 Год назад

Automatic thumbs up for the shop dog. And another thumbs up for the "mount the frame to the motor, not the motor to the frame" trick. Great idea.

@josephharrison2270 Год назад

Buzzing for another series! And the new dude is cool too 😎

Man. I love the Saturday sportster series. So glad it’s back

Awesome, im currently looking to get my 77 sportster going. Probably womt be chopping it, but we will see throughout this video.

@onethousandpizzas Год назад

Stoked!! Just what I need to help finish up this 84 ironhead I’ve been sitting on.

@johnkelly6942 Год назад

That’s a really nice looking motor. Glad Ralph was allowed to make a small cameo appearance!

@BillyRillkratz Год назад

Thanks a lot for this series! As living in Germany where Harleys are mostly ridden by rich folks, imposter type guys or dangerous gang members, I very much appreciate the attitude of you LOWBROW people. Cheers!

@user-pe2uo5ui2i 10 месяцев назад

The older I get which will be 60 soon the more I want to do this because I am sick and tired of moving my 2017 ultra around. Heavy bikes just are too damn hard to move around and take up a lot of room in my garage great for touring but not anything else like around town. Great videos Thanks

@PoodlePuncher Год назад

I've been eyeing the bolt on hardtail for my '78, but haven't pulled the trigger because i couldn't find any good quality examples of it installed. can't wait to see how this turns out.

@gagebrosius1319 Год назад

Really wish you guys did the weld on kit so I know how to do a disc brake set up. But nevertheless im here and happy you’re back!

@spondal1 Год назад

Bolt on hardtail? I love that, think it’s great since not to many irons left to truly chop up imo, gotta save the ones we can.

@davidnorris5675 Год назад

Shame you still have to cut it up…. Would be nice option to get it completely back to stock

@PoodlePuncher Год назад

indeed... i think i want to hardtail my 78 sportster, but can't bring myself to chop it up. bolt on lets you test the water, and can roll it back if you don't like it. ive had this kit in my wishlist for a year, but never pulled the trigger, because i couldn't find a quality example of how it would look

@KnobleMoto Год назад

This is a killer build. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

@ka-bar5060 Год назад

I miss Todd and his WHOO! But this was an enjoyable episode.

@ilovecarnitas Год назад

Awesome thanks Tim !!

@daveco1270 Год назад

Glad to see this series is back. I'm sad that Todd's not doing it but the new guy seems ok. : ) I'm new to hard tail conversions. I've never seen the bolt on style, just the weld on version where you cut your original frame in half. How much longer is the bike using this bolt on hard tail?

@garyjacques5982 Год назад

Oh cool glad to see the Saturday Sportster is back. Hey y'all make that bolt on hardtail kit for a 91 883 Sportster. Another thing I would have done is I would have painted the frame or had my frame powder coat.

@Richies_Garage 11 месяцев назад

That camera work was so clean i put my saftey squints on🤣🤣🤣🤣

@erichoffman2479 Год назад

Id love to see a bolt on one for a big twin shovelhead. Would like to hardtail mine but id rather not chop my frame up 😅

@mattbujold4069 Год назад

You do nice work cleaning up those bikes. It must take a while to detail them

@mikegowen4967 Год назад

Like to have a bolt in hardtail section for a stock Sportster 2008 Frame.

@lowbrowcustoms Год назад

No bolt-on one is available due to the stock frame design, BUT Lowbrow has the highest quality and best engineered full custom frames and weld-on hardtails for 2004 & later Sportsters!

@asquared7861 Год назад

A bolt on hardtail that looks good might I say?.

@chuckchapiewsky7535 Год назад

They make a half-link for that chain.

@chrishoesing5455 Месяц назад

Is there a mount from the front cylinder head to the front of the frame right where it splits into the two down tubes?

@jasonsmario2125 Год назад

HEY LOWBROW 👋 what do you guys personally think is better? Bolt on hardtail or weld on hardtail, just got myself a 79 AMF ironhead and have been of doing a bolt of for the convenience.

@Skipelmore Год назад

Is the rear wheel an aluminum 18” or the steel 18” sportster wheel

@mattiefattie3895 Год назад

Sorry if this has already been asked. What is the grit on the flap wheel you used to radius around the boss?

@lowbrowcustoms Год назад

50 grit. Would recommend using a DA to send with finer abrasive before painting if you are doing it yourself. - Tim

@travisbrisch Год назад

What if you have a later ironhead? I have a 81 and it doesn't seem like there's a specific bolt on hars tail I can find full frame and weld on.

@lowbrowcustoms Год назад

Have to do a Weldon section - www.lowbrowcustoms.com/products/the-gasbox-weld-on-hardtail-rear-frame-section-for-1952-1981-h-d-ironhead-sportster

@ericweber1969 Год назад

Agreed, although it’s not going to be the same without Todd!

@norbertdavid5426 Год назад

does the motor even need to come out for this?

@lowbrowcustoms Год назад

No but if you plan on painting the parts that you cut off or re powder coating an old frame, it’s gonna have to come in and out anyway. If you don’t pull the motor to cut those rear section. Make sure to cover your motor so you don’t get any metal junk all over it from the cut off wheel

@ericweber1969 Год назад

The back of that case has some serious welds on it, did I miss him explaining what happened? If he didn’t say, anyone know why that would be necessary? Looks pretty serious!

@lowbrowcustoms Год назад

Motor was rebuilt by Delzani… prob before they got it someone blew something out if it, but it’s solid now and is a total runner

@ericweber1969 Год назад

@@lowbrowcustoms cool, thanks for the quick reply! Love this series so far, looking forward to episode 2!

@chrishoesing5455 Месяц назад

The camera man must have tickled you at 22:26?

@RufioMini Год назад

I love the look of the Ironhead motors, but I think I’ll probably end up with an Evo. I just don’t think there’s as much knowledge of the Ironheads this side of the pond and wouldn’t want to end up always working on it instead of riding it.

@philipyelito9873 8 месяцев назад

DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY HE DIDN'T PAINT THE FRAME AND HARD TAIL B4 HE STARTED BOLTING IT BACK TOGETHER.

@lowbrowcustoms 8 месяцев назад

This is the mock up stages my man... He's building this bike from scratch. When you build a bike, you mock it up first. Figuring out all mounting locations for everything, like rear fender, exhaust etc... and then tearing it all down and then painting and then build it all back again, plumb and wire. this is only episode one, you got a lot more episodes to watch my friend.
