TC Bros. Harley Sportster Weld-On Hardtail

It looks like you used MIG welding instead of TIG, is that correct? If so, why did you choose that and have you had any problems with this approach? Trying to determine how I should weld my future project. Great video!

love watching you work. what kind of welder do you use

job well done young man enjoy the ride

Do you wipe poopoo bung bung wit only han or you use toilet pappa?

Makin it look easy!

What wheel size you got om there ? Is the front also 16 ?

great job man, what is your welder set up?

i'm working on my 1988 Sportster 1200 and i been wanting to weld a hardtail to it. i'll be going to the TC Bros website and check them out.great video 👍

How much is that frame

Excellent video, very informative and a quality job. Thanks for posting.

Sure wish there was a simple way to change the rake...

Where do you get your weld on hardtail? And what bike do you recommend for a first time builder? I'm an experienced fabricator, mechanically inclined and a journeymen welder. Just looking for somwhere to start

does the dimensions of sportster stay the same with this? like lenght ?

That was very interesting. Is learning to weld difficult? How is one sure it went properly? 😝 I'm internally questioning my ability to have faith in the connection if I were to do that.

Looks good

What rear fender?

Hard tail more strong & lighter

Very nice

Is that a 3/4 or 1/2 pipe you're using as frame?

I love those tires ! The Sporty I just got has got new tires but no tread . I live in the woods and park in the basement , if the grass has dew on it I can't get out of my yard . I never had this much problem with my FLH Dresser.

What I love most about your videos is that your doing all this in a budget friendly shop and not with a bunch of fancy tools that most of us cant afford. Great build man!

What kind of welder you using??

Love It. Ive got an 08" Sportster 883. Is this kit good for my Rubber Mount 08// I wanna get TC Brothers springer front end at Christmas. O Yea---New Subscriber. Peace

Ordered it today from you guys. For my 2001 883. Can’t wait. I’ve got to get that kick start and the hammer kit in and I’ll be ready.

Hey could you post your welder settings for the hardtail? Wire size, speed and voltage? Having trouble with my setup during practice. Thanks and great job on the build.

Hey whats up I followed the same steps tho my frame moved slightly about 1/8 in do you think thats a huge deal? Would have to recut ect. To square up

what year is your bike?

Great work bro. I'm a fan!

How could I find that hardtail frame kit. And the prize pls

What wire mig did you run? What heat settings?

I liked the relaxing music . Great job on this frame. Thanks

I’m not a welder but am curious if mig welding the frame works just fine instead of needing to tig weld it

Thanks for showing the process gonna be doing the same to my sporty soon

Is it possible to do this on a 48 ive only seen like 1 forum on it

What welder are you using for welding on the hard tail and the rest of your fab work?

Awesome, what welder are you using for your build?

Great video thank you! In general is Mig preferred over Tig or does it not matter? I wanted to tig mine for a better looking weld but I’m not sure if it would penetrate as good as Mig…. Still learning welding. Thank you!

Can I weld this with a 110 flux core welder? Will it hold?

All these hardtails. What’s so bad about Softails?

lol Harbor Freight screw drivers

can you leave the belt drive on the bike?

What are those wheels and tires if you don’t mind me asking?

Why is there belt drive on the motor and chain drive on the wheel

Legit

What size front wheel and tire is that. Looks good

What year sporty would be a good candidate for this?

I don't like how the brake calipers bracket is on the tc bros frames, i noticed you didn't use it and made your own. Any videos on it or some pics? i really don't want to use their bracket.

What setting did you use on the welder wire speed and voltage I have a Hobart handler 210 with gas. Thanks for your time
