Sensor, I have to say this is one of my favs in the build-off. To me it seems that it only needs that little finishing touch, but too much would be, well, too much. But seriously this is a beautiful machine you got goin here!

[sensor]

thanks...this one i figured id go the k.i.s.s. route(no not the band .......for those who dont know......keep it simple stupid!)

[karfer67]

i thought about asking you if you were going to do that. so now that your running fixed does this mean your going to practice all those kool lock up the rear wheel skids i see those zany kids do?

[cashman]

Looking Good!!! I like 28" tires and I hear you about mounting them. You have to get up close and personal with them sometimes to get em on the wheels. They do give a good ride. Let us know how the fixie works with them. The front sprocket is sweet. Thanks!!!

[BrigmasterA]

Man it looks way cool. I didn't even know they made 28 inch wheels. Learn something new everyday. I like it!

[sensor]

and just to prove that even though its a single speed its from waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back.....

yeah i have been riding it for the past 2 weeks......nope no crazy lock up skids(flipped bars and no toe clips arent really good for trying either) only reason i left it fixed is i didnt have a hub for it and now that karfer offered me one i havent been able to find any nipples that are long enough to fit through the wheels

[cman]

Looks great. Nice and simple and I bet fast.

[sensor]

thanks!
well i toyed around with not doing the tank on this(was hoping for an original but it got sold )
then thought about just not tanking it for once(itd be the first with out one) then thought about doing a sealed tank(again )
but then idle hands got the better of me so heres close to what ill have on there when im done(didnt look at how it was flanged before i started and dont have anymore stock so wont be exact but close enough )
about what itll be.....

and yeah ill post some pictures when i have some charged batteries
now where can i get some piano hinges......................

[sensor]

well batteries held out long enough for this(not much to see yet just tacked and waiting for the blade and welding).......

maybe ill actually remember to get some blades when the tool guy comes tomorrow so i can cut the door opening out

[KOTA]

It's about time!.........

[sensor]

yeah now that the parts for 2 of the 3 cars im working on wont be in until monday......ive got the rest of the week off
so i guess ill get this tank knocked out today and mounted for the ride on sat! heres with the unfinished door and the hinge in place(i had to sacrifice the first 'toolbox' i ever owned for the hinge ).........

still have a little cutting welding and fitting to do but soon ill be slathering this with some bubble gum(thanks for the tip boneshaker )

[Boneshaker]

Make sure you get a good, thick coating of gum in the hinges!
