I'm partial to Fastbacks... even though I don't own one. I've always wanted to get one for my son. But the last thing he needs is another bike. lol

Hi G-Matt, this is an updated pic of the bike.

Indian Larry was a creative genius and if you ever get a chance to visit the shop in Brooklyn, you will be seriously impressed. All three of his Biker Build Off winners are on display in the show room - totally brilliant masterpieces of mechanical engineering and esthetics, not an easy combination to pull-off.

Smurf-Ray?

Smurf-Ray?

Funny, never thought of that! Had a trashed frame and wanted something different. Had some Teal paint and said what the heck.

2006 Schwinn Manta Ray

Added two teardrop LED headlights. Really dig riding this bike in urban areas due to its predictable cornering abilities. Replaced the factory rear tire w/a Kenda slick and the front w/a Specialized 24X2.

I found some old pics tonight. This was my bike in 1971. Probably a Wards special,can't recall. I couldn't afford the aftermarket stuff so I made them. Note the roof attached to the sissy bar.
I forgot about the pickup bed!
But I do remember the oversized Hurst shifter .So cool. I don't know what's up with the seat post. Now this was before the Top Fuel forks came,I had the real things !
Those who know me know I like my stickers and I quess it started Way back !
Enjoy ...Stevil

Here's my collection of ONE
and...a confession: I never owned or rode a muscle bike in my life until I built this one for the build off.
It's become one of my absolute faves because
1. of course...I built it
2. I actually finished it ...amazing.
3. It's so much fun to ride
