on to the next project
I built this bike a few years ago when I was literally broke and just needed something to ride
so it was put together with all my spare parts
a few years later and Im still literally broke but wanted to change the look a little bit
motor is a 93" mid 70's shovel (made over 90hp on the chassis dyno)
paughco rigid frame ( I think no stretch/rake etc.)
4spd ratchet trans
plans are
-new narrower gas tank
-old narrowglide trees for 41mm tubes
-different seat
-possibly different rear tire/fender combination
-possibly do a tall sissy bar
-possibly ditch the electric starter and leave it kick only
-possibly do a horseshoe oil tank instead of the round and go with a smaller kick start battery or maybe switch to a magneto with no battery
this is what it looked like a few years ago when I built it
this is just after tonight messing around with some stuff I have for it
the tank looks a little weird with the wide glide front end
but the front end will be a lot narrower once I change the trees out
the trees Im gonna use
