Re: The Throwback

In the blink of an eye my paint scheme has been changed (good thing I am still a couple steps away from painting)... all because of a pair of hand grips I found, that are totally AWESOME! I also did a mock up on the bike tonight. Will post pic. tomorrow. :lol:

So jealous :cry: 1st mock up up of yuor 1st build off and it looks really really good. I love the looks of this bike already, and parts are still being held on with zip ties. Not "feeling" mine this year. Gotta get back down there and get caught up with you, Baby!
 
Re: The Throwback



Here's the mock up I did last night. Hopefully I don't find any other amazing parts that "force" me to change things again. Just need to finish sanding the fork and then it's ready for primer.

How many spokes are on those bad boys? Also I wouldn't add much more to that build than what is there already.

Re: The Throwback



Received some of the "goodies' I ordered today! The grips are what made me change my paint scheme. Still keeping the throwback theme (as in a nod to the past not throw away) just in a slightly different way than I had planned. I love these grips!!
 
Re: The Throwback



I managed to get the frame, chain guard, tank, and fork primed...






... and painted!! :p
