Default ibike before and after

apple101 built the bike and I added the final touches before giving it to my son. Shimmed the sprocket and added a fat tire to the rear, built side covers to hide a bunch of stuff, added fenders which have a heavy bracket on the front so it won't crack, put on the exhaust pipe, shorten all cables and wires.

What did you make the covers from?

Overall, a very nice improvement.

That was the way I got it from apple101, I guess he did not notice they were sideways, does not seem to make it run bad and the small amount of extra air flow may not be enough to bother with. SO what I am saying is I was too lasy to change it.

Sheet metal, conduit, and used a bead roller to form the beads.
