Be the mother of all buckers!! Then we can give you a better title.

Holy shit! We went an entire page without any comments about the front wheel!

Holy mother of all batteries. Don't take any sharp rights with that thing on there, it may just slingshot you around the equator.

Fueling issues all sorted out. Tuning a flatslide carb is different than a CV, and once I really wrapped my head around it, it took about fifteen minutes. I may or may not have run out of gas two blocks from my house this morning, though.

The power delivery between this carb and the v-twin is really a tremendous amount of fun! It's pretty neat having a useful first gear.

Thaw or bust!

 

[mydlyfkryzis]

Nice Yamahonda. LOL

 

[crazypj]

That's a pretty cool 'post apocalypse' look you got going there

 

[Rich Ard]

I'll take all the compliments i can get on this silly thing. Thirty miles without a hiccup today, and I'll put 120 on it tomorrow.

 

[Rich Ard]

Battery box.

 

[mydlyfkryzis]

CAreful, you are starting to venture into steam punk...What's keeping your pants up now?

 

[Rich Ard]

What pants?

 

[mydlyfkryzis]

The ones that needed the belt you used on the battery box. Lol

Moxie and safety pins. Also, from time to time, a different belt.

Seat looks nice, but the missing fender? You will end up like this:

first i hope this is a goole image and not a picture of a member. but i gotta say tell that ,that I hate it...
Every single thing in this picture the north face jacket, the shoes, the 1 speed skinny tire mt bike, the hip sack ,the artz black in white the fonze rolled work pants. That have never seen work. Where is the rear brake, o my mistake he doesnt need one he's got a "vintage" front brake.....ass fuck! if he would have left the other 9 gears on your ten speed he could ride up that hill instead of push.
He is on his way to go drink some fancy beer I can't pronounce and listen to radio head or sonic youth while talking about feeling and treating his aids.

Oh my Brad. That was Rich Ard on his Cafe Bicycle I think you owe him an apology. That bike you are denigrating has been in his family for over 978 days. It's an heirloom and a reminder of his families heritage.

Surprised me when I found the pic on google and it was one of our own.

This is why Rich Ard took the rear fender of his Yamahonda, to honor the old family bicycle.

Rumor has it he is out there riding right now, looking for the right sized puddle to christen his pants (which are riding low due to lack of a belt) in his families unique tradition.

Shame on you for trashing a boy and his bicycle. You are obviously a hater.

Well I guess sorry and good luck with the aids rich, magic beat it, you can too.
No bullshit that picture makes me want to take a kids lunch money.

(a) While I do not own one, fixie bikes are a lot of fun. I do have a Schwinn Varsity decked out with triathalon and aero bars and toe clips.

(b) That's just about what I looked like after it started storming on my way home from the shop last night, as relates to the skunk stripe.

Glamour shot:

Still need to do a rear wheel conversion
