This is the first time I have used a forum. Hope I don't screw up to much.
I built a beachcruser last year, and had a ball with it. It, (the build) went well except I tried to get away with not using a chain tensioner. I couldn't balance the tension on both chains so I bit the bullet and hooked up the tensioner. Now all is well in bikeworld.
Some of my other progects are:
1946 harley flathead chopper with belt drive and triumph preunit transmission. Did 100% of the build myself. A little crude but it turns heads.
1918 Model T Woodie truck restoration and rebuild. Now running, but I lost interest.
1979 Honda CBX 6 cyln 100 % stock (factory 105 HP engine). Way ahead of its time
1981 Harley XLS roadster sportie. Original paint and runs great. it was one of the AMA featured bikes at Mid- Ohio 2 years ago.. I got to spend an afternoon with Willie G Davidson. A great time
My latest project is a sick kit on a new schwin 21 speed mountain bike. I will only use the 7 speed de-rail system. It will have a Chinese 80cc, (really 66cc), engine. I also got a sigma speedo for it.
Hopefully I'll have this project done in the next couple of months and will post some pics.
