Time is running out!

But, on the bright side, the frame is back from the powdercoaters. Green wasn't an option, so I went to my backup colour. Orange!

I'm now in a hurry to get the bike done. Looks like we will have to make the seat ourselves! I still need to hook up the throttle, fix the clutch, do adjustments, etc...

Here are some pictures of the progress made tonight. Got the bike to a roller stage and the engine is bolted on. All that is left to do is throttle, clutch, fenders and a few other minor details :thumbsup: Keep in mind that the orange is slightly less intense in person!

You might be right! However, if I were to finish on my 31st (today), i'd be getting a day less than everybody else :laugh:

Thanks guys!

She's so close to done! I got the decals and shroud on before school this morning. I'm having concerns about starting the motor. Last time I tried that, I broke my brand new recoil spring :laugh: I'm confident. Should be riding tonight.

 

[jackeo21]

Finished!

I didn't think that I'd get the chance to say this, but...
Shes done!

We finally finished the Tru-Test :thumbsup:

I will upload a video tomorrow. No more work will be done on the bike. Congratulations to all who entered and thanks to all the helpful members here at OldMiniBikes.

Bit of a short post tonight, will elaborate tomorrow :thumbsup:

Congratulations, Jack! Well done! The orange is a great color and I like how the wheels set it off.:thumbsup: The long time members have to weigh in, but I'm wondering if you are the first from your part of the world to have participated in the build-off? Wouldn't that qualify for a special "longest distance recognition"? :laugh: We have a member in Australia who is doing a diesel powered bike, but not in the build-off.

Nice work on your bike Jake:thumbsup:

 

[jackeo21]

Yessir! We're all starting to sweat from the heat or drown from the rain, and you're wearing a jacket. Great job and glad to put a face to a name!:thumbsup:
