Maybe it was me? I love the green tires.
Here's one I did for Dingo.

And here are the fenders on my build "Stainless".

[corysmeltzer]

Wow awesome! Yeah I remember your stainless build now... probably where I originally got the idea, THANKS! Your's is way more elaborate then mine and probably took way longer too... looks good on polished or rusted hahaha

[corysmeltzer]

Got it all together and it was warm enough so I rode it around town. Not sure about a couple things but pretty sure this is going to be the set up. I was unsure about what bars to use because I have a whole stack of them but I really like apes and I just think they are so darn comfortable to use. The "Rat-For-Now" was from not knowing if I would keep it rusty/crusty or mock it all up like this and take it all apart sandblast and then paint it... Gosh I'm not 100 percent but I think I'm keeping this one rusty... think it looks good that way

Oh yeah, feelin this one! I'm green with envy.

[ruddigger]

The springer is too shiny! Lol, other than that it's perfect!

[jaysmo]

looks real nice and clean... and the tires sure do pop against that wall...

[corysmeltzer]

the threads were totally gone on the original rusty non-springer forks by the time i got the top bolt off so i needed something to replace it if i come across a rusty springer i will probably replace this one and put it on a schwinn. That bright wall is a local restaurant in town... it blinds you as you drive by haha. Oh and thanks everyone!

[corysmeltzer]

out and about glamor shots

[jaysmo]

gotta love spring time in Michigan....

[gcrank1]

Im likin' the contrast of the new bits & bobs against the rusty! FWIW, yopu know the cheap chrome on that springer is gonna just go anyway if you dont polish and wax it........
