Hey,
I haven't really been posting on this forum and so far I've been posting my progress on caferacer.
Well, I'd like to share my progress with you all, it's a very slow project since I'm too busy to work on it most of the time. I am however trying to finish it in the next 3 weeks or so - at least that's my goal.
Here are all the pictures of the progress so far:
There are no before pictures, but this is what it looked like a few days after I picked it up:
At first I had this grand idea that I want it to look more like a sports bike, so I modified the frame to match the seat style I wanted to use.
Then I fabricated the seat pan, here's the result I got:
The tank doesn't flow with the lines of the seat, so I will be changing it once I figure out exactly what I want...
I painted the frame and the wheels, got some new tires on and this is what the bike looked like a few weeks ago:
With the seat and tank slightly raised:
Without the seat:
Measuring height for new shocks:
This was taken yesterday:
I still got a lot to do on the bike, but I'll try to keep both forums up to date.
