"A Bird in the Hand" take 2. DR650 Deadtail Bobber, now with a sidecar

I'll be happy to help with your project in any way I can, though I'm just a hack with a welder and CAD, so enter at your own risk lol
That's one of the things I like about Levi, he's a very humble guy! Trust me if he's a hack then I'm reincarnated Marilyn Monroe. He knows his stuff and does a mean line of weld!
 
The weather is getting warmer, and the pile of projects that I was "going to get done over the winter" has crept into spring. Lenny needed to have a more respectable ride though, so it was time to strip down the hack chassis and give it a coat of paint. I left it bare steel for the last season, in case I needed to modify anything, but somehow I managed to get the geometry right the first time (even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and again right?)

It's not a show piece, but once again, I'm impressed with the finish you can get outta rustoleum appliance epoxy.

Ha, I know that feeling. I just finished the timing belt swap on the GL1000 yesterday and still have to do the oil I've had all winter to do LOL. Looks great in paint!
