Been a long time since I have posted.... We just relocated to Northern California.... to the east bay of San Fran... since we are in an apartment for a bit I have only really been able to work on LED conversions for my head light and tail light... for the tail I broke apart a flash light from...

where did you pick up the seat post? I have a cranbrook I have been messing with... I like the idea of just recovering the existing saddle... looks great

sounds good I am looking forward to see what you do...

I too have a cranbrook I am messing with... how did you get the seat post mounted that far forward on the seat? I messed around with mine and could not get it to work... has anyone taken it for a ride mounted like that?

so I took it for a .5 mile test ride and the odom clocked it right on... so that seems to work... now just the speed / rpms are not correct... I will pull it apart and see if some lube will help things out...

yes the needle moves in the right direction... it might be just a piece of...

so I got it installed... it seems to work as an odometer... but the MPH / RPH are way way off... it is pegged all the way around to the bottom so I am not sure what that is measuring...the odometer part clocked me at like .4 of a mile when I went up the street and back... I will have to take it...

yeah pretty funny stuff... I need to try finding on here local...

I like the horn... I just might have to steal that placement idea... and if you make it back to TX I can let t.u. slide and we can go for a ride....

looking good... no shame if you ask me in respect to a "budget" ride as long as it gets you ridding...

very cool ride...
