My first stretch cruiser... (sort of)

This is a bike that one of the locals brought to me to fix for him.
He started to built the bike, but he just couldn't get it finished, so he brought it to me to build for him.
I removed the engine & mounted it in a different way, relocated all the wires, CDI & cables, & then fabbed a pully from a dead chain tensioner to route the pedal chain under the engine.

The front mount can also be clamped on, for those who don't like to drill...

I'm kinda proud of how simple & clean the engine mounting is in this bike compared to some of the other stretches i've seen. I always figured they could be mounted like this & still look cool!

Hey norm, did you get any more vibration than usual mounting that way , i did the one pictured that way a couple months ago and had a wicked vibration, had to move the motor forward.

Nope, no bad vibrations... It runs real smooth & very solid!
Some engines just vibrate more than others... it's luck of the draw.
