Well for some reason I woke this morning I was up at 0600. Checked a few e-mails and got on Craig's List just to see if anything caught my eye. Low and behold a Schwinn Spoiler. I know they're not everyone's cup of tea, but I really like the springer forks. Well a few texts, phone calls, and 160...

I'll take a look at mounting them there. I think the biggest issue is wanting the seat to sit back just above the fender. At that point the sissy bar is still stretched wider then the seat, much wider. The joys of bike building. Took a look at your build. Had ideas of a soft tail when I started...

I got a soft spot for fender skirts to start with. That is one of the coolest scooters on the planet.

Another issue could be naming rights/sponsorship. As we all know that seems to be the latest trend in advertising. Here in Dallas and surrounding areas, many of the spots big enough to pull off an event of this size are sponsored, or sold naming rights. As a result they aren't going the lease...

Was doing a little roaming around the sight and found a thread about occ bikes and parts. Ran across several with 36"+ sissy bars. Been gathering parts for a phantom/occ build and I'm now wondering how you guys make the sissy bar work. I've done a little test fitting and with the added width of...

Interesting stuff. Really like the choppers with the high backbones. Gives them a true motorcycle fell. Big thanks to karl for finding these.

I'd say either a dealer or perhaps consumer wanting a certain bike without the means to obtain it. Either way something is worth what someone is willing to pay.

Looks like the same saddle I put on my wife's bike. Yes it is looonng, and very comfy. That thing rode like it was 10 years old when it was new.

I've read all the post and all make good points. This quote sums it up.

You got me interested with the frame. Then you get a Monark style springer. Ready to see the bars, it's looking good so far.

should make a cool retro pit bike. if the red is anything like the green it will be noticed!

Amazing how much better these things can look with a little imagination. PM sent about fender.

Good looking start. If your going apes, go BIG with a 42" sissy bar. Maybe a pedal change ?, but I put bear traps on everything.

Very cool! Really like the lace pattern, design works very well on the fender.

Re: LONE STAR VINTAGE BIKE SHOW - OCT. 5 2013 I like your math sir! :D

Unless someone opens up the gate! :lol:

Try hitting up the next local gun show. Saw a couple of guys selling them couple weeks ago at the Dallas Gunshow. To the topic, the guys at Lowe's and Home Depot don't even try to help me anymore. I'm never looking at stuff for what it is intended. Always trying to incorporate or repurpose...

Cute tune, but anything with Marty Stuart is a success.

You're right the burrito bunch has been quite here lately. Liking those bars as well as that chevy, (60 or 61?).

Very nice. Love the stepped fenders and the tires. Really sweet combo of colors.
