The bike is looking really nice and it looks pretty well sorted out. How is it running? The mirror is a great idea, does it vibrate or can you see out of it? After all the hard work it must be nice to go cruisin! Have fun.

Pat, thanks!
So fair bike runs ok. I have to brake in engine, and install CNS carb. Mirror just installed, so I have no chance to test it...

So, I am curious if you plan to take your bike all apart and paint it or if your going to keep it as is. Have you given it any thought?

I thought to powder coat frame and fork to flat black color and leave gas tank as is.
But now I want just sand blast frame and fork. No paint.
May be you guys can suggest same thing else....

My suggestion would be to paint the frame using one of the Schwinn stencile kits to get that classic 1950's graphics going on, then paint the tank to match and throw on some WWII bomber nose art. There are some companies out there supplying nose art decals that would look really nice on your tank. Whatever you do just make it yours..........
