That looks like a Twinstar tank on there!

New pics!

That bike looks great, I really like the choice of colors.

Took it for a spin last night, what a blast. Cheap fun! Really turns some heads too.

It was a sunny today. It still has some work to do.

I finally got it running! I had redone the tank but been scared to put gas in it. Finally did today... The sillcock was clogged up and I had to take it apart and boil it to get the crud out. Finished off with some carb cleaner. THEN I found the starter button is defective. But the kickstart...

Thanks! This is my first bike build, I'm trying. ;D It isn't perfect but better looking than when I got it. (In my eyes)

Got a little more done today. The little air filter hit the frame so I used a copper 1.5" street 90 and created an elbow. Thinned out the seat. (I had to pull out all the staples and redo the whole thing) Test fit the battery and wiring under the seat. Pic of exhaust I built how it exits...

I had also pulled out some billet aluminum chunks. ;D About 2 years ago but have been hanging on to it. I figured out why yesterday. I lowered the front of the bike by raising the forks 1.25". Works great but my new clubman bars hit the forks sticking up. SO... I need to build a riser...

I don't know what the foam is... I pulled it out of the trash at one of our commercial buildings. ;D Price is right.

That is what i had originally but thought it would be uncomfortable... Hmm... I will redo it and see what happens.

Do you mean too wide? Or too thick? I was thinking a bit thick as well. But it is comfortable like that. The seat is about 1.5" thick.... Maybe I should cut it in half.

Another update... Either you all think my project sucks ass or this forum is really boring... Not one comment. :-\ Yes the pics suck... I rebuilt the seat as well, and bought some clubmans.
