I was thinking the same thing Randy. :cry: I don't really want to cut anything up, but I don't want to have something that looks like bikes others are doing. We've got time and it will come to us. Just remember "Build it and they will ride it." :wink:

I'm still in, just haven't done much yet. I decided I was going with the Scrambler. I'm planning on using a chain guard that came off of a 24" bike so I cut it down.

Ok then. I'll use this one

I cut the other one rather hastily and now realize I should have done it differently. Found the above one on the parts wall and decided to go with it. No cutting necessary :lol:

I have no idea where I'm going with this :roll:

I'm going to convert the Scrambler to a muscle bike. I will be using the banana seat off of the Buzz Bike.
Here are the tires I think I'm going with...

"What's that?" you ask. It's a rack I made a long time ago for growing cucumbers. I found it stashed behind the shed. I no longer grow cucumbers.

You now ask "What's it have to do with this bike?"

Wait and see :D

It was made of conduit. It's now my sissy bar. I've painted it black.

I really didn't want to try and imitate chrome on the sissy bar so I painted it black. Thought it might look ok as the forks are black. Didn't like it so I repainted it aluminum.

Also made brackets to hold this tag
