I.N.B... DONE!

[Gold Street Customs]

Yeah 2 months ,thats my story, I'm with ya...

[scrumblero]

and as if I wasn't draggin my feet enough, as I was puttin in our new $400 water filtration system (so we can feel good about drinking the Cali water after the whole meltdown thing) , My wifes father decides to up and die last night.. since he was a hells angel loner type. looks like I'll be picking up the service and the disposal fees so my wife doesn't retaliate in the bedroom....

On the bright side, I wont be biting my nails waiting for parts to show up...

[Gold Street Customs]

I guess you could call that a delay ,,SHEESH!!!!!

[scrumblero]

after a short hiatus to deal with that boring real life crap, I am back at it! Got a sweet pair of too small matching stems from clerkkent and after contemplating murdering em with the drill press I pulled a favor and had my buddy bore em on the mill. now to lace wheels...

[scrumblero]

got the wheels together and slapped some parts on it to get an idea what I got. still not sure on the bars, unfortunately the ones I wanna use are the wrong diameter.. still gotta cut the steerer , dig up some cranks and find a headlight, but at least I got it started!!

[scrumblero]

got some time today to work on it and got to ride it around the block a few times.. I am finally startin to like it enough to get my beep out in the garage and work on it..

[scrumblero]

or maybe these?

HEY DON'T USE THOSE BARS!! I'M LOOKING FOR THEM FOR MY BUILD!! LOL NICE BIKE BUDDY. KEEP IT UP. PEACE

[Dr. Tankenstein]

Either set of bars look good to me, if you're gonna ride it a lot, go for comfort.

BTW, dang there's a lot of rake on this puppy!


Cheers,

I noticed the awesome rake right away too.

I happen to like the first bars because I like riding my bike that way.

The second bars give it a very different look.

Build it so you can ride it.

hey man ...I am diggin it very cool and those motorcycle handle bars look awesome on there to me , clean bike I like it

[kingfish254]

Sweet clean ride! I also like the rusted up Spaceliner in your shop.

[2dawgs]

Keep the first set of bars; remind me of cafe racer clip-on bars. Love the overall style.

[scrumblero]

well.. its been real hard not to roll the boat and go fishing whenever I get free time, but I gotta work tonight so I spent some time tody goofing with the bike.. I was riding it all last week swapping around bar config's and heres where it sits...



it rides best like this, but I still dont like the look, I am gonna flip the stem and see if I like it any better, or I may still try and do something with the pull back bars..
Anyway.. I got a super cool chaingaurd from beatcad, and shot some FB around the old striping and slapped it on.



and started working on the headlight mount... :



I'm having a hard time finding a headlight I like and desperately need to find an old fender and get going on that as well.. hopefully the flea market will produce tomorrow...

[MplsCoaster]

Hey Scrumblero,

Glad to here it's riding well.
The chain guard looks really good on your bike.

Good luck at the flea market.
