    I got the skirts buttoned up in the back, which centered the tail of the fender. Finished off with some nice acorn nuts. 🌰

    There is a plan A & B for the last bit of tank work. I had planned to use this stainless steel material on the tank to mimic the holes on the chain guard. The steel is thin but way too hard to cut. I bought nippers that didn’t cut. I have cutting discs for my dremel but will take forever to cut...

    Thank you! I’m still working out the final piece on the tank. Plans were to mimic the chain guard and skirts, with the tank design. With hopes to bring some of the green features forward to balance the bike. 🚴

    I love it. Great build. A pet would have a lot of fun in that side car. And what a grocery getter! 💪🏻

    i couldn’t help but go ahead and put the handlebars on and set the tank in place. I’m very happy with the look. One bit of work left on the tank.

    The bike is down on the ground for the first time. The chain has been put back together nothing is dragging at the moment. It at least will be rideable. I will have a late night getting the 3 speed dialed in. But it pedals and I am stoked for that. I can now work on the last feature for the tank...

    The skirts are now attached to the fender. I had a small disaster this morning with the clear coat paint on my chain guard. I think the combination of some humidity my cleaning with alcohol may have been the problem. I religiously wipe down with alcohol before I shoot paint, to make sure I...

    Some before and after photos of the fender. Just a front fender flipped to the back.

    Getting the fender mounted in the frame. I am now liking that I added the long gray dart to the frame. I’m getting pretty excited now. Looking like something.

    Thank you! I’m ready for it to be finished. I lost two weeks from being ill and it put me in the hot seat to finish. I will be assembling it today. The tank is really all that is left to finish up. Thanks for checking it out! ✌🏻

    Thanks! I love the ducktail fenders. It has come a long way from when I picked it up. Lots of hammering dents and filler made it look fairly decent. Hopefully there is not too much going on now with the long gray dart. We will see 🤞🏻 Thank you much! I had a few bad spots appear but was able to...
