360 Boredom

[Revis]

Alright, me and my buddy got bored. Just made my 360 with no title run for the fourth of july. We decided "Screw it. Lets bob it. Right now.
So thats what we did. Only put six hours in. Getting ready to go out and put 12 and have it done in time for the wauseon ohio AMA swap meet.

I got some huge ape hangers off of a bicycle. But then I would need to put money into new cables. So thats going to wait a while.
Got the fishtails on there but need to bend pipe to lead to them.
Put 7 and a half inch struts on.
Dropped the forks till they hit the bars.
Had this tank sitting around. I wish it would sit down more but it doesn't fit the frame correctly. We will make it work.
Couldn't of done this without flipping through DTT while holding an angle grinder. ;D
Thanks DTT for providing me with the inspiration i needed to get it this far in one day.

Alright, need quick opinions, Got a big 8 foot stainless steel brushed hospital handrail,
I am thinking of cutting the angle to mount it from the pipes leading to the fishtails.
However I could just mount it straight out. Just slash cut the pipes leading up. some style of the fishtails only stainless slash cut.
Quick tell me what you think, or I could run both pipes to the same side leading up like I have the tails, but two straights on one side.
I need fast opinions. I'm losing time typing .

I like the fish tails. I too wanted my ride to be done to ride out to wauseon but it dont look like thats gonna happen, gonna have to ride something else.

You go to the Wauseon meet?
We go there every year.
If any members go out there, We camp in the big red white and blue bus on the turn of the track.

to me the angle of the fish tails is way to steep fo how slammed the rear is, does not look right and will burn you if you even lean back a bit

Ya man. I like the direction youre headed in, but Joes right. Youre askin for trouble with the pipes in that location. Gonna' cook ya' alive. And visually it really shortens the bike with the pipes vertical like that. Run em a lower angle so they end right around where the top of the tire is. Keep the look low! And keep the pics comin!

I got an update for right now. This is how it's staying for the swap meet.
I can go further with it. I just need something fun to put around the meet with.
Cheers

What's funny to me is you have an angle grinder in front of your 360.

Almost every shot of my bike has one in there somewhere too.

man dig all the use of skate decks!

I thought it turned out pretty cool. Don't mean to stink up the forums putting up junk builds with the high class customs that have been built in here. We just really thought we should give it a shot, if not anything it looks cooler than it did. I have no intention of leaving the bike like this and calling it done. We just sit in my garage all day and look at the DTT builds for hours and finally we just had to throw something out there. I think if I actually put money into it, I could make it special. But I can't find a job in this shit town. But I didn't want to look like a little asshole youngin with an angle grinder .
So this is put on hold for a little while. I'm actually going to get back on the BSA project. That is my main priority.

But, any comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated, the bike had 9 hours put into it. Budget was $0.00
Tell me what you think!

man i really like it! the only thing that i would change on it is the angle of the pipes other than that i think it is pretty trick amn! i would rock it no questions asked!

 

[Revis]

Well, me and my friend rode it around the meet. And it was fun enough. It doesn't have enough clearence to fit a squirrel under it though. He caught one at 55 and got it stuck on the pipes. It was a mess.

I want to hear some opinions on the general heighth/length etc. of the bike. I absolutely love the way it sits, But everybody loves their bike, and not everybody likes yours. I just want to see some opinions on it. I still want to incorporate some apes into the situation. And the pipes might change, the 45 degree cut out of the stainless can't stay. I'd like to get a pipe bender set and make it a little more legit. And I really think it could use whitewalls.

I want some ideas for paint since I may actually tear it down, and do it right.
I want to keep the blue metal flake, but i'd like to put some other colors into the equasion.
I'm thinking Metal Flake blue with gloss white.
Please, give me your thoughts.

blue and cream or flat white has always been one of my fav color combo's the last blue bike i shot we did in a candy blue and faded that up, then silver stripes

it is a rocket but gives you a good idea
