Wow Jemma, You've got some good taste! That's one pretty bike and I like the way you twisted the pipe.
One question...What's the button on the side for? |

I've been told before I have a talent for picking styles and things which work together. Im pretty happy with the bike finally, just trying to get hold of some more Golden Eagle stickers with which to complete the decals.
The button below the logo is for an electric horn. It works quite well as well.. just not loud enough to go over the motor and a horrible place to reach for when you are trying to avoid a shallow gene-pooler who is glued to their mobile phone and has their brain switched off.
glad you like it 
Jemma xx

Very nice... (The Schwinns make the best MBs)
I like your bike much better without the tool box in the middle of the frame!
Clean, simple & stylish is the only way to go! |

Pretty bike, I really dig the Schwinn repops, they were able to bring back the classic look even with the chineese quality. The Nexus 7 is a great feature also when you have to pedal. Nice job Jemma...Kelly

I think they used to put the horn button there so when you grip the tank with your knees during a panic stop, you automaticly hit the horn button...IIIEEEEEEIIIIEEEEEEEEIIIEEEE!!!!!..toot.
