Betcha can't make a 'U' turn on a narrow street :)

Nice build. Let us know what color and show us the finished product. Great work.

Oh, and I vote for black. Paint or powder coat?

Well its about as long as my FAT BOY HARLEY and i can turn around on that. It is more stable than a stock beach bike but you cant stand up un the crank. I was thinking about having it powder coated black? THX!.

I'm liking the long bike theme. I'm kicking around ideas for a new build and the boartracker thing is so overdone that I really want to push the boundries for something long and low. Did you bend the tubing yourself? I need to get a tubing roller so I can fabricate my own frame. My idea involves a motorcycle engine in a handmade stretch frame build with a suicide shifter. As far as your frame paint color, I myself would go for something non-typical. Your frame is too nice of work to just put a black paint job on. I would consider clear powdercoat over the bare steel or maybe a rust color patina finish.
