Heres another one of Elmers creations...

This guy is too cool for school! May I someday build bikes like this...Kirk's Cutdowns...or Bernie's Bob~Jobs...Bernard is my middle name, thanks Mom n Dad.

I found a pic of the Red one!

Hmm, coulda sworn one was a flatty and one was a knuck, maybe this guy built more than a few, as I am sure he did. His name is Elmer Ehnes from Minnesota. Learning he is quite the restorer and wanted to do these for fun, cant blaim him! Awesome job Elmer, too bad all these new builders call their evo rigids "bobbers"....oh well, thats what occ, discovery and mass media will do to the world, pollute it...so here is a pic of the red one, how bout them pipes!

One of the bobbers that turned me on first!

Ah, finally found a snippet of what got me interested in bobbers. Searching eBay for Knuckleheads and vioala, there is one of the two bikes I first saw in Hollister 10 years ago...Here is the Knuckle, which I believe has a different exhuast from when it was built, but I could be wrong...the Flatty twin to this one had red rims and red accents like the Knuck, plus it had 4 exhaust pipes, way bitchin! Anyways, heres a few pics, and bid on that baby, cuz I cant!

Thomas' bitchin Shovel bobber. Will find a few more pics soon...

Some Random Favorites....

Here are a few Knucklehead Bobbers to inspire.

Took these pics at Dixon in 06...

Welcome to my tribute to the traditional bobber.

Here I will be posting photos I have taken at various events and travels, along with many photos I have accumulated from the web over the years. I have been turned on by the 40's & 50's style bobbers, or bob jobs or cut downs as they were also refered to, since I saw two bikes built by a guy back east that were debuted at Hollister in 97 I believe, he called them Hollister Specials. One was a big twin flathead, and the other a knucklehead, still both are some of my all time favorites and just the epitome of the style of the era in my opinion, and they make me feel fuzy inside, yeah, I got it bad. I may sometimes share some images that may not be pure, but in my asthetic eye there is something special, so I dont want to hear any shit from anyone if it isn't 100% AMCA traditional.

This is my 1942 Harley Davidson WLA Bobber. Hope you like it, but who cares if you dont, I love it, rides awesome, so nimble and fun, never lets me down!
