New motorized project?

I really admire your work. Looking at the pictures reminds me of the time I spent sitting on my Honda Reflex.

With all due respect, this looks "bitchin".

Congratulations and I can't wait to see the finished bike.

Thanks guys! Unfortunately there will be no motor in this one and it's done.

The wheels are 26'' with a Sturmey 3 speed coaster. The forks are Electra forkes and they are not suspended. They do have larger lower legs and the little rubber ring that makes them appear to be suspension forks but they're rigid. I also painted the lower leg to get that suspension look.

Here it is in the dirt....

I started it thinking it might get a motor but it turned out otherwise.

As for the stack of dishes, it might be overwheling to most people but the amount of work that goes into one of these bikes is also overwhelming. I would love to say these could be had for $1000 but if you really break it down, that's just not possible.
