Ridgedale Challenge..

Hey all y'all,
I've noticed here in the forum that a lot of us have built up a Ridgedale......I'd like to see some of your builds....I've noticed a couple but no one seems to be able to compare to mine....this is not posted to be condescending in any way,shape or form....I'd just love to see what others have transformed this bike into......it's an easy build....horizontal drop outs which makes it a butt load easier to use one of Jim's Sprocket adapters and sprockets.....( notice there's not a chain tensioner ).....I use all of Jim's stuff save for the new head he builds... ( I want one damn it ! ).....I'd just love to see what others have come up with on this particular bike....I installed a springer fork.....speed carb......sporty shorty fenders.....racing tires....blah,blah,blah.......let's have at it folks !

Thanks,
Salty

It's the stock saddle that came with the bike,,,,,,,,and yeah.....VERY comfortable.....but I'm thinking of using a laid back seat post....to make it even more comfortable...all in all.....it's a great bike.....by the way.....I bet I'm older than you .....


Thanks,
Salty

here's a older pic. I used a different front engine mount,the bars are lower, and I'm using the tank supplied with the kit. Lost my damn camera, so I will have to post a newer pic.
