I think I see a Springer front forks, love the fat tires, anything like your other builds, I know it will look cool and be functional at the same time. Can't wait to see the finished bike and hopefully a video
 
lookin good Dan :)
having used 4-5 of those rears (from choppersus), can I suggest keeping the weight all low...even with the 4.5 tires, they still wanna lift in a corner (at low speeds even)

Thanks for the advice Bill. The frame is a Micargi Bronco GTS so the bottom of the frame is only 4'' off of the ground. This bike won't get ridden much since it will be a rolling billboard. i am only customizing it so the owner will get the attention of people to draw them into his rolling advertisement.

Here's another side shot

Dan, That thing is going to be beautiful! Did you do all the sheet metal work?
My one son told me that when I build his bike he want's an electric. I will have to look yours over really close when it is done to get more ideas. Great job so far!

every time i see one of your builds i am always thinking WOW!. this one has that wow effect to and it has only just begun. very nice work indeed!
 
Got a little work done yesterday. I put the fenders on and I also changed the forks because the guys at Bionx said the spriner would be to wimpy for the hub drive. Those are NOT the handlebars that will be on it in the end. It will have a set of iRide Talon handlebars. The Superfats from Choppers US look pretty decent on the wide rims IMO.

Needs a small block Chevy. I think it would fit just fine.
Cool build, Dan. What color will it be?
Tom
 
Maybe a V-6 LOL!

Not sure of the color yet. There may be some sponsors that will want it there company colors but if not, it will be a pearly pink.
 
Here's some updated pictures of it with the new handlebars I made for it...
