The twin-bar pictured to the left rides sweet....geared a little high but cruises great. Cant remember what a guy told me the actual name of it is....the front looks like cast iron. ??
As to your finish color.......personally I would clear coat the whole thing and leave it as it is. Your welding is fantastic and the different hues at weld joints....well. quite frankly,,,,no great painter can duplicate this. Just saying@o_O
Great suggestion r-ratter....There was a bike built similar to the tractor-liner and was at the Portland In show a few years ago. It was a yellow peddle tractor and was also really kool. Wish I had my camera with me at the time...but didn't. I think it was on a trike ???

Actually sitting on the remnants of the famous Athletic Park 1/2 mile oval (Horse Track) cinder & dirt bicycle ad motorcycle race track. Only about a mile from my house. A lot of flat-tracking dirt racing and earlier bicycle racing here. My 1939 twin-bar was raced on this very track in the...
Rode it off the driveway today and attempted some photos. Center kickstand installed and works great. Man this bike really rides nice....perfect seat height and bar height....only wish it was element of design which is was not....maybe subliminally.
Thanks/// Yea, had a few ideas for that....may need a small oxygen tank and a mixer for a really hot clean flame. (?) Just a few removable hot dog forked tongs would work. crazy
Today I fabricated a center stand for the Flat Tracker and it cane out ok. I'll be shooting photos in a few days but first there is a big bike meet to attend this weekend...can't miss it...may come up with some more do-dad's ????...also cvame up with a small extension for my propane exhaust...
