Mmm, we've got black frame, blue frame, blue frame, black frame. How many bikes are you building??

this builder did it no prolem!
I have 2 destined thoughts:
<O1) Crazy Frank Fender, with nose up, long forks, old school, forward controls, Juice Rear, rabbit ear type bars, huge king and queen.
2) Low and Fast, dropped down rear and front, 21 up front, with more aggressive skinny'r bars, level looking, kind of like a Denver without the rake. Mid controls, disc everywhere, low style king queen.
<O</O
We'll see how it all pans out, either way I'm going with my "Faberge Egg" tank! And making it a double seater!<O</O

Im more comfortable that way as well, while I like the chopper ride, I like to give it some snoose and feel like I can still control it! The tuff part of #2 for me will be trying to make it rider friendly and still maintane the sleek fast look. the women has been hatin on most of my bikes as they are built for one, so I wanted to get her a spot on it.
here is one of the seats Im trying to get to work with the #2 option (minding that I'm going with that superglide badass tank)

its a bit lower and doesnt have a huge back

Yeah, lots of great bikes in there....lot of them are single seaters or stock....I guess om going to try to make something a bit "original" HA....like anything is original with these f'rs
Hopefully I will get some help from some friends along the way, as this is my FIRST complete rebuild, as im going to be going through the tranny and top end and probably have to split the case and get that shored up as well. its a bit intimidating! but I figure if I never try I will never learn.
well had a couple hours before the football game: teardown
