Is that red on the tires paint or molded into the tire?
paint wanted to see if it would last and it does as long as i dont skid
 
i took this thing for a cruise after the mock up and i should've called her shake rattle and roll. i need to make more struts for the fenders to kill the noise also not sure if i want to paint it or not?
 
Welcome to the build off, it's good to see someone start with the kind of bikes I get around here, usually 8 different layers of paint from being stolen at least that many times! haha

thanks man and youknow i think im gonna polish it a leave the paint the way it is feed back on that idea would be helpfull
 
that might be sweet its colors seem to look cool but that maybe just me
 
thanks i think thats what ill do but im not sure how to paint the tank
that is if i can figure out how to make one or can find one for under 50$
 
i figured out that this bike was either a phantom or a streamliner i think that ill restor it in the future so no cutting or welding on this project
