Thanks, I like the bars too, but the chrome is dis-colored and they are beat up :wink:

Thanks Doc! I had the sissy bar from my BFK and bought the seat at my LBS, it's pretty nice :mrgreen:

Hey CCR, how's the bike coming?

Re: SCHWINNRAY69 v.s. CCR muscle bike buildoff

Nice bike! Did you use water transfer decals or vinyl?

I've used vinyl decals but never the water transfer decals.

I used vinyl decals and put about 4 coats of clear on it :wink:

April 8th, 2011

Digging around for a fatter front tire, found a fatter rear tire in the process too It BARELY fits in the chainstays so i need to make sure this thing will ride before i get too excited. Fender ditched, dont know if i miss the whitewalls right now. Contemplating some rattle can whitewalls but i have my doubts about that.

Got a name picked out too to go on the chainguard but its a secret for now 8)

What wheels are those?
i mean tires i would like to get one 8)

I may still be on hold for this one, a friend of the family has my bike and might take me a bit to track it back down, at least until after this holiday weekend.

Re: SCHWINNRAY69 v.s. CCR Muscle Bike Build-Off

so is that a 24in springer on the greenie or is it a 26in?
cause i was considering getting a 26in springer for the front of my stingray motobike, next project.. it will be possibly running a 20in front wheel.. but the raked look is what im going for anyway so it wouldnt be a problem, im just curious to how far out there will my tire be :roll: :lol:
