I like EVERYTHING about this bike, the blue headlight and that seat caught my eye first! Lots of inspiration.

Well done, sir. 8)
 
Thanks everyone. The headlight lens is a Kopp item dated 1933. Real glass and mint. I was scared to death getting it mounted in the bezel since it wasnt made to fit it. Lots of fabricating to get it in the bezel straight and tight. The light is off my grandpas IH tractor. I cleared the bare metal frame so it wont rust. The 3G wheels fit the tires perfectly but there is a bit of chain rub on the tire over the bumps. The Dana trans was bought here on the site. It was still in the packaging but the grease had long since dried out. Rebuilding the unit was pretty easy. You can really see it but I welded a piece of 1" tube coming out of the front of the BB then capped it. This is so the mounting fork on the gear box would have some place. The gators are spares from my old Triumph T20 bobber. I fabbed the bars out of 7/8" heavy tube and made the seat out of 10 ga. and using the 20 ton press with some interesting steel blocks to get the shape somewhat comfortable.
Overall I like it a lot and its a blast to ride.
