We Need Your Photos: David Bird Hardtails & Frames


We are looking for any photos of David Bird hardtails in action, as rollers or preferably finished bikes. Triumphs, XS650's, Sportsters, if you are running one of David's frames or hardtails please email over some photos. Also include the stretch & drop of your frame so we can include that info and use some photos on our website to show off different frame styles. If we use your photos on our site we will hook you up with a nice care package, so send 'em over or take some nice pics! Thank you!

Customer Bike Spotlight: Scott Witherspoon's '79 Yamaha XS650


I spotted Scott's Yamaha 1979 XS650 on xs650chopper.com, liking it immediately and then noticed that it had a David Bird hardtail on it (4" stretch, 2" drop looped style). I emailed him and asked for some pics and he sent these along. An excerpt about the bike from xs650chopper.com (original article here):

"Some main features of the bike are that it has a wassell style peanut tank, handmade fender made by my dad, previously mentioned David Bird hardtail from Lowbrow Customs, narrowed Biltwell bars, electrics box made from an ebay oil tank kit, 4 ½” bates style headlight, shaved and lowered front forks, pipes made by me, PMA swap and Pamco ignition."
