Default The Black Stallion

Here is my build, a lot of time went into my paint job, pre engine. My rims are shimmering gold, and bike is completely blacked out. I'm currently building a trailer, need to paint it black, and gold rims also. Gonna install a motorcycle battery in the trailer, and run headlights and neons, and there's a possibility I may install an amp and subs, with wiring leading to a mini dash on the handlebars with mp4 player, gps, among other things. When I'm done, this bike will look like it's worth $2000! Sweet.

Thank you! I'll be posting pics in threads all over the place here as I go. In a minute I'm gonna get to work bracing the bottom so it's very sturdy. Then, when the sun comes up, I'm gonna remove the wheels and begin the black paint job. I'm going to put ADDICTED BICYCLE CUSTOMS on the back panel for people behind to see, the neon lights will be awesome, and since the battery will be 12v, I can run anything a car can run. I found a box at Canadian Tire (departement store) that will allow me to plug into a wall outlet to charge motorcycle battery. It's going to be pretty pimped. No limits to my imagination. lol. I'll keep posting pics as I progress.

Nice setup you have going there man..I'm still trying to figure out what i can do for a sound system setup,battery wiring etc. i want mine to thump thump thump!

Get some EL wire with the portable 2 AA inverter it would be much easier to handle with.

By the way, in case you're all curious, I'm using one of my 3 drawer dressers as the box. I plan to make most of the top plexiglass, with a 4 inch "drawer" so to speak. So that when you look down on the top of the trailer, you'll see my amp, the subs, and some neon lights to show everything off inside. The trailer will have a flap lid at the front, with a nice sturdy lock and hinge. The whole trailer will be sealed, waterproofed, and sick!

I want the 12v motorcycle battery because it's pretty small, it will run many lights and what not, which I can buy over the counter and use cigarette lighter plug ins. I'll have six ports likely, so plenty to play with. Even if I wanted to run an electric air pump, it can happen. Gps unit for a car, can then be run on the bike. And like I said, you just plug it in at night, with the charger box of course, and you're set for the next day.

OH! and I want to have a wiring clip, like a trailer on a truck, so that I can run my headlight also, using an actual motorcycle headlight. Tail lights on the trailer and seatpost. All run by battery. if not enough power in the end, I'll upgrade engine with air filter and expansion chamber, and run either a second motorcycle battery, or a full size car battery. Either way, it's mostly for my own enjoyment. I want to build motor bikes for people, and I want them to be pimped, not just another engine kit. I like to be original, and the nicer I can make my bike look, the more people will remember ADDICTED.

Hey ABC, I'm not a fan of BOOM BOOM music but good luck on the build, I'm planning to use a similer trailer modified to haul mt stuff ( camping gear, food what ever ). BUT for some reason your pics are 180 degrees out. In less you have a very different bike motor combo with motor drive on the right and enjoy backwards writing. I am looking forward to seeing your wiring job.
