"Animal's" Legacy of Brutality, TT500 chop

[Maritime]

good luck on the sale, hope you get top dollar.

Good to see it is still around. What about the engine?

I bought a cheap running XT500 that will be an organ donor for the chop.

Sissy bar work. Feels good to be working on something other than the new house.

That is one sturdy looking chook pen.

Ha. Overbuilt and one of the many things keeping me from motorcycles.

 

[JustinLonghorn]

Got the sissy bar, fender, and seat pan mounted. Still need to rivet the leather cover down to the pan. Next I’ll tear apart the donor bike behind it.

That tank is rad.

Nice, has the rust gotten any worse under the clear? or has it stopped?

 

[JustinLonghorn]

The rust hasn’t gotten any worse for a long time. I am still debating restripping/painting that area.

Found some bars for this thing. I plan on cutting off 1-2 inches from the end of the bars On either side.

I dig that tank.. is it an XL tank?

 

[JustinLonghorn]

That tank started life on a DT100:

If the rust is not progressing, leave it. also, the bars are rad and I agree just narrow them a little to be perfect.

Dirt bike tanks are great for making frequent visits to the gas station or running out of gas a mile from your friend's house.

Maybe I'll strap a 1 litre fuel bottle to the frame. Ha

I got 2 of those I need to fix to the GL. I do not ever want the repeat of last ride to Barber LOL.

I've run out of gas twice. Granted, my 2 gallons is feeding a CB750 motor and a thirsty carb kit.

Ha yep, you need to add hidden capacity someplace. Not sure where but would be nice not to run out LOL

I knew I put a sissy bar on the Animal for a reason!

Lol. I gave E a couple of high pressure nitrogen bottles from an airplane that would be almost perfect for that right there.
