A friend picked this one up the other day, and I'm really not sure what it is. I was thinking Huffy, but the bracket on the seat stays is throwing me off.

Liking the build. I have a question, though. How are you going to stop the cranks from spinning when the clutch is engaged?

This looks amazing! Are you bringing it to the show on Sunday?

Nice tank that's not a tank. Great idea!

I love your builds, Luke. They are so inspirational, and nothing if not ambitious. I want to see Outlaw finished - and that insane fork - but you need to do it on your own schedule. I live in a pretty reasonable climate, where we can work almost year round, but if I had to work in the cold, I...

Just have to say, the back end of this build is about as good as it gets. Deep fenders with the 24" hookworm - perfect!

I did, king, but the closest bike shop is in Greensboro - about 40 minutes away...

Hey guys, I bought a bike on eBay the other day, and, well... I missed the part where they would not ship it. I'm trying to find someone in or near Madison/Greensboro North Carolina who could pick up a bike for me and drop it at a bike shop for shipping. The person that has it is incapable of...

Well done! Love those forks on that frame.

Watching intently. The fork looks great so far!

Man, I think the Nomads are the winner.

It does a great job of transferring heat, too. I have burns on my leg to prove it!..:arghh:

So, getting the go-fast parts installed was a little more involved than I thought. Installing the head and the carb was pretty uneventful. I was out of fuel, so I picked some up at the station, added some oil, and was ready to take it for a ride. I rolled her down the driveway, on to the...

Excellent tip. When I started swapping it out, I noticed that the cable was going to be way too short. Fortunately, the Sick Bike Parts throttle had a slot in it so I could give it a little more slack and it fit perfectly. The difference in quality between the two carbs is huge. I was all...

Man, you are taking this to an entirely different level! Loving the build!

I got some go-fast parts in the mail yesterday. A Dellorto clone carb and a high compression aluminum cylinder head. I'll get these installed this weekend.

Well, I have been about as busy as I have ever been with work, and while I have been able to get some work don, I haven't had a lot of time to post the progress. Here are a few updates, and a video from late June. At the bottom of the post is a video from yesterday, and I get the engine...

This is amazing stuff! I need to be honest, though... I am sitting on the edge of my seat, waiting to see you pull off that insane fork!

Thanks for the comments, guys. I'm pretty pleased with the look so far - and the patina is pretty killer (I think). I've been wandering around the house, thinking about what else I can spray the patina on :) (the wife is not excited about that). Back from my trip, so I should be able to more...

With all the business travel I have been doing, it's been hard to find a ton of time to work on the bike, but I was able to put some time in on the build last Saturday. I got the KW Machine motor mounts in the mail, which made installing the engine a breeze. As I mentioned in an earlier...
