New member here. Just bought a Drifter 1500 last week and am looking forward to reading up on all the available info. The Drifter is my new bike after moving upmfrpm a Honda Nighthawk 250. Look forward to talking to you guys.
Hi...welcome. Before the others start on you, you have any pictures of your new ride?
Welcome and enjoy your ride and your time here......
Welcome to the forum!
You've probably noticed a big difference between those 2 bikes.
Here's a pic. I plan on getting a change in the paint when I get the chance. I'd like to model it more like the Indian Bomber model with the green and black.
Another J model...already been repainted at least once...what are your choices for the next time? What's that chrome doo-dad sticking up by the pipes?
The chrome thing is some kinda bracket the previous owner had on there holding a real crappy set of bags. I stripped off the bags and was going to get rid of the bracket next. Yea I figured the bike had been painted already with those flames and all. Not at all my thing so its gone once I get some scratch together. I was thinking either going the matte od green color and replacing the chrome with black . Wanted to reupholster the saddle in a dark brown leather or replace it all together. Just got it so I'm still working out the ideas.

Welcome, Wolf. Glad you could join us. I can't blame you for wanting to get rid of that ugly red color.... Just kidding, red is one of my favorites. Flames are something you either like or you don't I guess. Not my favorite for the Drifters either...
I don't mind red and I don't mind flames but together....I dunno. Kinda need something to contrast ya know?
Wolf74 do not let those people with no taste influence your choice of colour and they are all just jealous of my fantastic Sunbeam Red Drifter.......pick your own and if your happy the heck with the other peoples opinion.........
