Well the work is well under way and should be back on the road in 2-3 weeks.The plan was to do a rear wheel mod and fit a 200 rear tyre, a 200 front tyre both are built around the original hubs relaced onto 18x5.75 rims - rims and hubs powder coated black with stainless spokes. I then decided to junk the rear end completely and do a rocker style rear guard, bolting directly onto the swinging arm with no strutss, side mount an old lucas light, fit an old stlye pan seat and blast it all in nice satin black powder coat. Here are some of the early build shots, if there is enough interest I will continue to post the build shots upto and including the finished bike. I want to say a big thanks the the forum as without help from the site i dont think i would have had the ***** to cut my bike up!!

Have a look in my garage to see how the bike looked before the angle grinder struck its first cut

 

very cool

 

very large gonads.... looks good tho'

 

Dig it ... especially the 'tractor' seat with contrast stitching ....

Got any photos of the front ...?

 

Very nice! Really like the way it looks from the rear (in the 2nd pic). Look forward to seeing the bike finished.

 

Sweet, very interested in seeing the finished product.

 

Very nice. Will be waiting to see the finished product.

 

Sweet, lets see the front.

 

So did you just go with the fat bob width trees on the front?? I cant wait to see the front end. Pics Pics Pics. Who built your wheels?

 

Unique, and ballsy, I love it. That bike is really going to stand out. Definitely keep posting updates.
