Looks awesome. I’ve just realised this is ‘Da Trump Card 2′. Did the original ‘Da Trump Card’ use the stock tank? I think the bobber tank is a vast improvement. Can’t wait to see it finished!

Thanks! Yes, the original Trump Card used the stock tank but it was modified.
We will finish fab. on da Trump Card 2 this week and then re-assemble it. We will be posting another video after that. The customer is going to pick it up and finish it up with paint, wiring, etc.
We will be offering this conversion as a kit on the site.

Cheers, I’ll keep an eye out for the new vid. Like you say there is a huge cost saving to be had here, especially as the old Trump engines are becoming increasingly harder to find.

Yeah, complete used bikes of this new era (2001-up) tend to sell for only $4K to $5K and that is in good condition – much less even if wrecked, damaged, or with a salvage title. So, a guy can take the typical Big-Twin build budget, get the complete powertrain, fork legs, wheels and tires, etc. and have a lot of money left over to build a bike with a lot of pretty cool shit on it. –Big Daddy 1-515-265-8441
