the Wife's bike - almost done

Voted, surprised I remembered my password for that site, I haven't been on since 2011 or so.

Yeah, as I kept having to tell my wife. Her inspiration pic was computer generated. She really wanted that tank shape but my skills don't currently allow me to make a tank from scratch, I probably could make the pipes (never did it before but cant be that hard). But we were on a deadline to get it ready for the Mods vs Rockers event. The pipes may be a good spring project. I would prefer them to be longer and now that you pointed it out, they would look better following the frame and slightly upswept.

Excellent pair of builds.  You have a good design eye....shows talent that you can build something so simple that looks fresh without resorting to hackneyed gimmickery.  Really schweet.

I'm in process of building cafe/brat style Buell Cyclone

ok, I am not going to lie, I am pretty excited about this. I have loved magazines sine I was a kid reading BMX action and the big car magazines. I probably have 2,000 magazines in boxes in the basement. I always wanted to be in a magazine. I had a write up a while ago with a picture of me roadracing  in WERA at the cycle jam, but we made the cover!

I have one for my GL1100 project - Was a freebee from a coworker because he was happy that I kept it.
