This is my first muscle bike. I wanted something practical and rideable that I could use to commute. When I bought the frame it was lacking a rear wheel and pretty dirty. It would have originally been similar to this: http://i39.tinypic.com/244ec6t.jpg

I added a taller sissy bar, different seat, a rear wheel with a 3 speed sturmey archer coaster brake hub, taller handlebars and a basket.

Having two stems helps counteract the amount of leverage on the long handlebars.

The seat was made to mount to the top of a shorter sissy bar, so I made this bracket to attach it.

Planning on upgrading to longer cranks at some point.
