Hello everybody!
After small pause, we are back in the game. In the last copule of days we was working over the front suspention and the handlebar. Here si some photos:

There are still lot of work to do over the front end. We have to cut the bolts to be the same length, make just a litle more welding and grind some weldings.

And this is the front suspention movement:

We still have to connect the leaf spring with this steel plate.

There are some improvements of the frame. The front leaf spring suspention is out of the game. I like it more this way. At the moment i am looking for good old motorcycle engine (125-350cc) And the pedals are out of the game too. This will be a real motorcycle.

Im guessing the wheels youve used arent 26" rims are they? Are they smaller?...... normally id say the bigger the wheels the better, but those wheels really seem to look good on this bike. I love it......... you have a very original build going and i cant wait to see more progress. Keep up the good work

The wheels are 19" but i think they are different standart (cars/motorbicycles) becouse they look like 24" or 26" bicycle wheels.
...if they are 19" Motorcycle they are about 23" bicycle. Go with 26" bicycle-wheels with drum brakes, the bigger ones look better on your bike, I also prefer the loop frame you had before, don't like the change you made too much but that's just my opinion. Anyway- interesting design!

Dunno why, but on that particular bike I'm liking the look of the smaller wheels........ And I have seen other MB with smaller moped wheels and not liked them, but these I do like....... Not to say the normal 26" rims wouldn't look good

It's more of a motorcycle than a motorised bicycle (seems to be the progression that is happening with some of these bikes) & is interesting; like Harry, I quite like it. I think Axel is right, I think the smooth loop in the frame looked better. But maybe the motor you choose will cover that anyway.
