oh karfer i found some picture of a car that this bike reminds me alot of.....ill post them when if can find some on the web(if not i do have the magazine that its in)
i think i have seen it too. there is a motorcycle that sorta has the same colors as this bike but his bike for all the metal was chrome and was just too shiny even for me.
cant find any but ill bring the mag when i come down next time.......'32 roadster with louvers on everything and lightening holes everywhere also and its raw steel(if anyone has a pic of travis kenneys 'california cheese grater' please post it or a link! thanks!)
This bike is B.A. with caplocks on. totally sick ride.
Bike looks great! You should be proud. Not just for your skills but also for your big heart. You may just be building that trophy for yourself!
thanks ej599 that means a lot comming from ya i consider your bike very high on my list as well. i guess we both wanted something really out there this year and i would say it has been done. i really could not be much happier with the bike after taking her out on the LET EM ROLL ride and everything worked as it should and sensor can attest that i was not taking it easy on her i am pleased and this bike now really does have my personal stamp of approval. a bike can look as cool as it wants but if it cant take a good hard ride to me it is useless. and sensor that is the car i was thinking off i will have to find the pics of it i saw it on the net a few years ago. i was also thinking of the 1962 ponitac catalina light weight drag cars that were also known as "swiss cheese" cars because they drilled holes in everything to get the weight down.
Yep........next year it is so on. I've already got an idea too. Custom-made cast aluminum parts anyone?
well.......id can only speak for myself(but im sure karferll agree with it too)............
billet proof! :mrgreen:
billet proof! :mrgreen:
yep sounds sorta like a trailler queen to me. you know boneshaker this thing aint over yet and iduno where all this trash talking is comming from. personally i think it is funny i have been thinking about entering a bike again next year if it were not for sensor and myself having a theory about this event. but shoot keep it up and i just might have too. and oh yea i already have it planed out as wel if i were going to do another. but till then lets worry about what we are all building this year and leave it at that ok? and yea i agree billet proof although sensor you know the stem on my bike is aluminum aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh but as you can attest to she aint no trailler queen well atleast to the shop but it is like 20 miles away give a ratter a break. :mrgreen:

Just look at the streets around you shop, lots of possabilities that big park down the street,I am sure the College has some cool buildings and that old theater by the highway looked sweet just my input. :mrgreen:
maybe i just need to toss her in the truck and drive all over looking for places. i have some ideas i am just sorta stuck
another amazing build from you that fork is sick looking and im in love with the light :mrgreen:
that fork is sick looking and im in love with the light :mrgreen:
thanks joshua i love the light too and did you notice the tube that holds it is another peice of a schwinn frame that i got and was cracked? now if i can just get the NOS light to work right (switch is giving me trouble) it will be really cool.
I haven't commented on this bike yet even though I've seen it in person.
Very nice, and very unique.
