Sour apple (CCM SCRAMBLER)

[white_cross]

Here is my first bike build. The SOUR APPLE, It is a CCM Scrabler (not sure of the year yet). I painted It a custom mixed BASF Glassrut green which I call "Sour Apple Green", I also painted some ghost flames on the chain guard. I polished all of the chrome including the rims, the handle bars were replaced with Ape hangers. The banana seat is a new Low Rider unit, which I painted checkers onto the pan. The tires were replaced with New ones the originals were separated to the core. I also made dice valve caps for the bike. I had a blast building this bike and am now hooked. I hope you enjoy the picks.

Cool photos . . . thanks for sharing! The bike turned out GREAT! The only thing I see missing are grips. I wouldn't want your hands slipping off the bars while pulling a mean wheelie!

I am from Winkler Manitoba Canada. The course is on my Fiancees parents farm yard. It is quite above my riding level. but it is a blast to watch the guys ride on it. It was built by my fiancees dad and her brother and his friends. It is known locally by the bikers as the "Freedensruh Free Ride Farm". I will post a couple of picks of the guys jumping their bikes.

Here are a few picks from the guys riding at the "Freedensruh Free Ride Farm"

Here you can see the roll in:

This is the view from the top of the roll in over part of the jump course:

here is the wall ride with my Mustang between the jumps:

this shot was kind of scary for me because my car was under My fiancees brother and his friend who are doing a double jump over it. It made a sweet pick though:

These picks are from 2 years ago. some of the jumps are made out of wood now and a bit bigger. Just have not taken any yet except for the ones with the sour apple in it

This last one is a view facing the roll in across the corse from the other direction:

For repainting the bike did you mask the ccm scrambler decal or did you get a new one :?:

I actually painted it on. I work with a guy who used to work for a graphics/sign company. I took a photo of the original graphic and then gave him the picture and measurements of the graphic. He then transfered it to his computer and cleaned up the rough edges and filled in the missing pieces. The finished computer drawing was sent to the guy he used to work for. The graphic was then printed onto the stencil materiel with a special printer that cuts the stencil materiel. Then all I had to do was Stick the stencil on the chain guard and paint the letters on. I was very fortunate to have this connection.
