hey with a name like Lazy Rodent you didnt expect much hype did ya>?


I sure have been having fun on her though.... A much better ride than the Hammer...(the Madd Hammer weighed 76lbs.... not much of a rider)

Nice rat. The blue on the chain guard is excellent.

Hi Larry, It would find it hard to follow your anvil banging award winning Madd Hammer and be kinda wiped out from that awesome build. It's fun to just build a nice casual cruiser for youself that rides and gets the looks like the Rodent will. I read in someones build thread that they can't stand rust. I'm exactly the opposite and treasure the fine natural patina you've decided to preserve on Lazy Rodent. Once again a fine build. Side note in case you may have noticed the similar use of suspension technique, Madd Hammer inspired me to build Undertaker with the leaf springs. So props to you and thanks for the great ideas.

Thanks guys... the Rodent has been a fun ride. I am really glad I got it put together and had the chance to sport it around the hood!

Nothing like dusting the rust off your pants after a ride :lol: . Very cool bike and great choice to go with the cream tires.
