Dude, it's like you are inside my head. :shock:

I love the straight bars. I love the big 'n' skinny also. It looks amazing. Thinking of something similar for this bike.

Only with a fat 26" slick in the rear and a 26 x 1" slick up front. I'll change out the fork to a flat blade, as I just came across a guy with a huge bucket of forks! The 24 x 3" is tempting, however. What size rim do those take again?
 
The AMF is looking great!!! Rachaels Stingray was one of my favorites in the RRB kids buildoff. Hope everyone is feeling OK!!! Thanks!!!
 
time is getting thin but I am working at it, was going to work on mounting headlight and the badge but as I am looking at the bike that tank
plate just looked like it was missing something so this is what I came up with...some of you will recognise what I used :mrgreen:

vw turn signal lights and they look a lot like the ones off a 67 like mine. but are the lenses hella?
 
Wow! I was just thinking how "Go Fast" some guys are making their bikes (derailleurs). 8) Impressive!.....Then I saw your tank(s), just blew me away! GREAT IDEA!..........Nice, Nice, Bike.
 
so I went to the local radio shack and picked up a 4 aa battery pack and a couple 250 milyamp bulbs..did some pretty basic wireing
and a tie strap mount...we got lights

while riding tonight adjusting the lights I here a neighbor say " what is that coming down the road "
it was just me :mrgreen:

wanted to get some bettter pics but just dont have enough time so there you have it.
 
i knew youd get it to work! looks great :mrgreen: and you should come down for the ride(gas wouldnt be to bad coming down from the mountains........going back up might be a different story :wink: )
 
bike looks great love the night shots and when everything is better with your family we all need to plan some sort of get together
 
thanks again for the cool comments....you know I would like to come down and ride with you guys and lord knows I have made several trips
down to Sac. lately but none were any fun, gas is really not to bad in my olds it gets 31mpg on the freeway !
My problem is logistics all my trips down have been to take my wife to UC Davis for chemo :cry: and its usually just hit and run .
So when is the next ride ? If I could make it I would probably be riding the 58 delivery its more my size and a comfortable ride.
