Re: UndertakerCouple of hours laying out the design and tacking up the fork to see how she looks. I spent hours struggling with the design worried the front coilover and the fork would be too much mass. I came up with this skinny girder like design and I think I will tie the top eye of the coilover into a custom gooseneck. Still laboring on the handle bars. Love the flipped boardtrack look but not sure of the flow on this bike.
A huge thanks to all of you with your positive encourgement and comments watching me build Undertaker. For the record only two tabs have been welded to the frame so far, so I think I am within the guildlines. I will be using used rusty wheels and most likely used black wall 2.125 tires. Unless I decide to use a new pair of cream Fat Franks that I have been saving. The coilovers are from scrap motorcycles and all the rest of the steel is pieces of scrap from trash picking and leftovers from my garage door business. This is without a doubt a super low buck build! The consumables like cutoff wheels, wire wheels, griding discs, welding gas and welding wire is where the money is being spent. Throw in a couple of tubes, some fasteners and some paint.The day you stop learning is the day you step foot in the grave.
Re: UndertakerNice, man this going to be a tough buildoff, I guess I need to get started
What would Jesus ride???
Re: UndertakerI was going to ask how many Garage doors were harmed in this build!

Re: UndertakerHundreds of garage door openers were harmed and have willfully dedicated their lives just to be recycled into the ultimate of recycled products dreams... To be made into a bicycle and shown to the world their new gift of life on Rat Rod Bikes!

Re: UndertakerCrazy work!
Re: UndertakerSick, Sick, SIck!
I'm watching this one closely. The donor bike is one that I've had for a couple yrs now. It was made for M.W. also but badged as an Omega. Same 1800 stickers and all. I picked it out of somebody's trash probably 3 yrs ago and has been my dedicated kluncker. I 've converted it to single speed and have even ran it fixed offf road. The cool thing is I've really tried my hardest to kill it but it wont die In fact I just tore it down and am thinking of another build for it rigt now. Your's is amazing!!!! Good luck in the Build Off. Mike
Re: UndertakerWorking out the bugs. Opted for a leaf spring fork instead of the coilover. Been scrounging a long time and finally picked up a plasma cutter. First attempt at some plasma art. I'm liking this. Like a kid in a candy store.
What good is a tank if you can't put stuff in it? Found this cool little headlight at a swap meet. http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy256/Kuttnhack/UndertakerRoller009.jpg Really reworked this fork.The day you stop learning is the day you step foot in the grave.
Re: UndertakerWow- pretty wild! And that "girder" front end is something else!

Re: UndertakerKinda wierd how this third page is too big as compared to pages 1 and 2! Must be me. Almost a solid day on the build. It always amazes me how freekin long it takes to fab custom parts. The speedo housing has at least three hours into it and still no prep and paint.
