So I finally got my dream bike 1990s Westport Murray. It was in bad shape but now its looking pretty good. I already did a lot of work on it so here it goes;
4/8 Got bike! Added air to its tires and rode two miles to wal-mart. To pick up new tubes and some paint. Left it at my friends place for the time being.
4/11 Picked bike up from his place and found ants in the seat so removed seat.
4/12 Tape all holes shut and got the seat off. Later put back on and rode it some what.
4/13 Add pegs to rear. Why? Because I can and they look good. Took trail riding(Rocks, Mud, and Water). More ants came out.
4/14 Kill ants hopefully. Okay all ants are dead. Got an old fake gas tank from a roadmaster jr. Got a new front rim because rust was eating a big hole in the rim. Also got a new tire with mountain bike tread on it. Then got a quick release for the seat. made back of rear fender wider
4/18 Took pedals apart and cleaned out old oil and put new oil in. Feel a LOT smoother when riding. Rear tire ripped apart and inter tube just blow out but it made it a mile before it blew out so thank you bike 8)
When I just got it home:
