I don't know if it's the wheels, bars, frame, or all of it together- but that bike looks so tight. It's got an attitude. Can't wait to see the progress.
I have been thinking about the drive line and decided to ditch the chain and sprockets to go all belts. I'm trying to keep a "smooth" look to my frame so I'm avoid any sharp corners or bent sheet metal fabrication.
I took an unconventional approach to adding the jackshaft and I think it really fits with my theme. Here are a few pics.
One note....the rear pulley will gets some detail punched into it and not remain a solid pulley.
As it sits right now everything is welded. No fillers or spot putty type stuff yet In the end the bike is going to be a vintage gray color so I shoot rattle can primer on it as I build and it gives me an indication of the final look.
Once I'm sure I have all the brackets and other details I need, I will blast the whole bike again before the "real" prime and paint.
Shorter answer......I can't take pretty pictures for you guys if I don't throw some primer on it. :laugh:
I have an exhaust tacked up. This was a trial but I think I like the look so it will probably stay. I am looking at balancing it with an intake filter on the other side of the bike.
:bowdown: :bowdown: I love this build :thumbsup: I want to see it in person :shrug:
I would consider using a TAV and then a cog belt for the final drive(no slippage) but that's just me :shrug:
