    I put 10.96 miles on this today, sorta a shakedown cruise. Everything went well luckily as I forgot to take a multitool for adjustments. Took a few tree hugger photos along the way. I planned to do a couple of shots at a U-Haul dealer, when I got there they no longer existed, storage facility...

    Agreed! Stays silver, thanks. I was thinking the top bar was level but it has backwards rake. The number two rack is mounted level with the world. I think that works. I’ll try some photos on St Patrick’s Day.

    Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks for the input and responses. No real consensus at this point, guess I’m leaning towards the skinny rack number 2, number 1 looks too bulky in my opinion and it’s not parallel with the top bar. With that said I’ve read that bikes with...

    Number 1 or Number 2? Number 2 or Number 1? Or Number 3?

    I had a simple Linus Rack on another bike that’s been collecting dust. So I decided to borrow it for a test fit. It’s not quite as over powering as the Topeak beam rack. I’m thinking I like the understated look of the Linus rack better.

    Thanks, I have to laugh at your Inquiry about the Shockers. They are 5-12 in conference play and 13-17 overall, so no MM for them. Showing great improvement but can’t close out games, they are on a two game win streak with one to go at Tulane. Yes the rack is sorta an after thought. I had it so...

    Buttoned up some loose ends on the light and conductor wire. Think I’m about ready for some final photos. Also ready to focus on spring garden, landscape, succulent and bonsai projects.

    GT Harley Davidson NOS Build.

    Had this out today, started with full charge on battery. I used a variety of pedal assists1 to 5 and mostly 3rd and 4th gears settings. I didn’t use the throttle. I had 89% of battery power left when arriving home.

    Paint had a couple days to dry. Put the lamp assembly back on with two new bolts, the threads on the originals were shot and wouldn’t tighten up. So from rat to shiny. Maybe 100 year old light on 3 year old bike. Need to add silicone drops again to eliminate lens rattle. An hour or two here and...
