Just got the bike put together. Awaiting the motor kit.
Picked up the frame , ( a Centrix )at the local wrecking yard for $2.
What a deal. Pays to have friends.
Its a nice cleen tig welded steel frame.
I then scavenged the running gear from an old full suspension bike that I built my daughter years ago.
Added a new set of XLC fenders and a 2 to 1 brake system to the bike.
New KMC chain and a bit of elbow grease .
Ended up with a nice little cruiser for little money. I love it.
Once the motor kit arrives I will machine aluminum mounts , an intake to accept an 18mm Mikuni , then fab a low mount expansion chamber.
I haven't decided on a head yet. Lot's of options.......
I am also debating on a jack shaft gear change.
As the rest of the parts wont be hear for a few days , looks like I'll have to try to get some work done on the bobber.
Merry Christmas all.......
