I made it out of sheetmetal from lowes....still needs to be finished. Just found out that I've been recalled to American Airlines to work at the maintenance base here in Tulsa, OK......looks like they put me in the paint and fiberglass shop so I'm going to brush up on fiberglass work and make...
I added led's mainly for night time visability. There are 4 red bolt led's from superbrightleds.com and underneath is a three led deck step light that makes a wide 3 circle pattern under the bike.
Well I couldn't leave it alone so I have a new paint concept......ww2 p-38 colors. I rode the bike around but started to feel that the olive drab needed a little color. I checked out some old war birds and liked the p-51 and the p-38 colors so this is the start of that paint scheme. I like...

I don't like scarebus either....Their maintence manuals have some weird lingo. Instead of saying install they say "offer up" try saying that in your everyday mechanic talk...I was a support mechanic at American Airlines in Tulsa when the NWA thing went down. That deal sucked for everybody...
Well it's almost done....just needs a seat upholestered, exhasut wrapped, and a paint job........anyone have any ideas on paint? or do you like the electrical tape numbers :D I just finished installing a new clutch and took it out for it's fist ride with full transfer of power to the wheel and...
