Here I was excited about the 88 mongoose decade I just scored. But the Kuwa takes that trophy!

I am 40 and recently got the bug. You know the same thing happened in cars. When I started watching Barette Jackson auto auctions, it was all about 50's and earlier cars. Usually WAY earlier. Then a few muscle cars started creeping in. Now it feels like it is all muscle cars! And the prices they...

Re: Fisch's 20-inches of Awesome! Springer ASSEMBLED!-6/3 Thanks Mitch and Chris! Mitch that is just what I was after. A lil' Brute! Chris, No fender is the plan, but I do have the original fender, so a little bobbed fender isn't out of the question. But it'd be pretty small! Funny, I was so...

Re: Mosby's Raiders | Security System That is what I like to hear! (Though a little bell up front might be really cool!!)

Re: Mosby's Raiders | Security System I miss seeing the amazing front of your bike. A tiny bell about the size of a headlight would be great though. Maybe try to mount the hatchet in the frame triangle? I love your build, careful not to go too crazy though! I always have to remind myself...

Re: FlexLiner 7 - TwinFlex Spaceliner 6/2 Im Flexy and I Know It You are a bad-bad man Kingfish- in the BEST way possible. Killin it!

Re: Schwindian Wiring finished, fork situation corrected. Great build! I like both forks actually. The shorter for the kiddies, and the longer for the grown-ups!

Re: Fisch's 20-inches of Awesome! Springer ASSEMBLED!-6/3 Thanks guys! Youth, I am psyched you dig the proportions. It is a big thing for me. I was worried with a 26" fork up front, but because of the raised rocker mounting hole and the light filling the gap, it seems to work. Though I...

Re: Fisch's 20-inches of Awesome! Springer ASSEMBLED!-6/3 Thanks Kingfish! That was a big step for me. Only a million more steps to go!

Re: Fisch's 20-inches of Awesome! Sprocket Springer. Crazy? 5/25 Gettin Sprung! Got the Heim Joint rod ends a week ahead of expectation! Love it when shipping is faster than you expect. This is the first assembly. First time I've set the bike on the ground since I started. Feels swell. Things...

This sorta just happened. Flea Market. Saw a beautiful Schwinn Lil Tiger at the first table. He wanted $30 but I don't know anything about toddler bikes, and wondered if there was a better score deeper in the flea. So I speed walked the rest of the market, finding nothing, kicking myself that I...

Re: Fisch's 20-inches of Awesome! Sprocket Springer. Crazy? 5/25 That is a cool idea fellahs! Just got my 7/16-20 tap in the mail to tap the strut tubes, but no heim joints to screw in them till next week. :cry: Hmmm maybe I should start thinking about the seat post situation next. Currently...

Re: Mustgo That is great. It is obvious from your build you have a good eye! These tanks and fenders are amazing, and what a great technique. This build is getting high marks. Thanks for the kind words on my illustration. I am mostly in the publishing world rather than advertising world, but...

Re: Fisch's 20-inches of Awesome! Sprocket Springer. Crazy? 5/25 Thanks guys! Oh I am doin it! Already cut drilled and mounted. Working beautifully, I am just figuring out where my struts will attach, and that sent me down a path of strut figuring before I can do a photo update. I am going...

And here I was excited because my next door neighbor is a pedetrician. (My daughters doctor.) But the garbage man might be even better! I had a Huffy Buckaroo as a kid. At least I think it was a Buckaroo. It had a cowboy on the seat as I recall.

Re: ••••••\Ya·Ku·Za/•••••• !Guinness World Record?! • :shock: Woah... What just happened here? :shock: Are you kidding me? After seeing this I had to remove my brain and stick it in the fridge because the hottness of this build was too much for me to comprehend!

Re: FlexLiner 7 - TwinFlex Spaceliner 5/30 Guard Lites + Pipes I WANNa see THOSE FAN WHEEL COVERS ALREADY!!! (Oh and the exhaust pipes get a thumbs up from me. I think a lil trimming like you suggested would be good.)

Re: Mustgo First time covering a seat? Wow, amazing job getting just the right contours. This build is a stunner. And glimpsing into your parts warehouse, I am already excited to see what you bring next year too!

Re: honey badger- new parts Awww yeah! Been a few days since I've checked in, and I see the Honey badger is bringing it! That springer is the s e x! Love how outside the box you are thinking.

Re: "DRIVESHAFT"~ Photoshop Mock-up #1 Nice photoshop skills there von fink. Look forward it becoming a reality. You could take a stab at making your own springer. There are a number goin. You could do it with simple hand tools. I have a scroll saw and a drill press, but that is as extravagant...
