Same as here.

 

looks sweet man keep it up and youll have a great gas saver

 

Taillight on the way.

 

I like this bike, nice job on the pipes! That rear light is kick ***.

 

Thanks man!

Working on an aluminum speedo-bucket,
all I need is mounting tabs on it, Its bolting to the ignition key mounts.





Its hard to tell, but the bottom is actually rounded out a bit.

 

couple of questions

1 how does it charge?

2 how does it start?

3 any idea on top speed yet?

 

im going to follow this one too.

 

new headlight mounted.

 

The engine has a small alternator inside the flywheel, Actually a "stator"
I think it will hold up alright, If not I will figure out a better charging system.

It is electric start.

Top speed...
Not quite sure yet,
There has been a few 20hp Briggs V-twin Choppers built. The guy who built them says they will run up to 100mph.

I dont expect mine to go quite that fast.

 

lookin sick!!

 

Yes, This head light is a million times better than the crappy looking Yamaha one.
So I'm thinking about side mounting my speedometer.
Anyone seen a similiar setup?

Something along the lines of this.

Only problem is I would need a different cable, a longer one.
But not to big a deal.


this way might save me cable trouble.

 

I cut the handle bars down, they only rise up about 2 inches now and are nearly straight.
They look mean, but feel weird, So I might change them later on.

Mounted the Gas tank today,
and made a seat bracket and pivot, so seat is mounted. Springs arent mounted yet.

 

Bike looks great....been wanting to do a bobber myself with a honda sl350

 

Welded in the bottom support for the seat springs, and cut out my taillight\license plate bracket.
Also got some nice pictures..

 

looks great

 

Haven't had much time lately for it. Only thing have done recently is mess with the fender.
I rounded it out on the english wheel, and mounted fender struts to it.

 

Any progress?

 

Is that a lawnmower engine? Nice!

 

havn't checked this in a while, thing is coming along great! I can't wait to get a new project bike. I have to sell the one I just finished to fund the truck build

 

for real? haha...i don't know of many lawnmowers with 5 or 6 speed trannys

as far as the bike build is going, lookin good man! can't wait to see the final result :)

 

Im not sure if this one was on a lawnmower specifically, but its that type of engine yes.



thats cause it doesn't! Its has the kinda clutch system snowmobiles and rhinos and stuff like that uses.

Sorry no progress lately, Havent had money or time, mostly no money though.

I have plans to remove the swingarm and do an open driveshaft before I go much farther on it, and I have been having trouble finding the right sized tubing.

 

i see. yeah, I have NO experience with snowmobiles/rhinos, etc. sorry for my ignorance. haha

 

Started putting in my new frame. Its coming along good so far.
Only got this one side tacked in so far.

 

I think you are going to have a traction problem with your fender mounted like that. Looks good man!
