occ back together

well, as some may already know, i re-painted the gas tank on my occ again.
I finally got it done and mounted back on the bike.
in the process of doing the paint job, a made a new seat.
It's an old bannana seat that was covered with purple velour.
I re-covered it with some black leather like material.
I had a chopped sissy bar that worked out perfect.
now i can sit way back on the seat and stretch out.
notice that i have the pedals set up like foot pegs...generic forward controls i guess.
but there's no peddling if it breaks down with the pedals set this way....oh well.





here it is next to my drag bike for size compairison.
the occ's are pretty small, but it looks big next to my drag bike.
luckily, i'm 5'6" so i fit on both bikes fine.

both your bikes are bada$$. how do you start the chopper if you cant pedal?

Simple...roll the bike about 10 feet down a slight incline and pop the clutch.
I never pedal either of my bikes, I ride them like motorcycles.
peddling isn't required to start these engined. all you need to do I coast the bike & pop the clutch.
mine fire up on the first or second try every time.
