Ok, I think she's pretty much finished. Still debating on whether or not to put the fenders back on.
Now before you go off saying "but there's shiny bits on it!!", keep in mind that this bike is supposed to be military inspired, not military issue.
Oh, and be gentle, this is my first custom bike build.
You'll notice that I left some chrome and the white walls, as I said above, that's because I want it to be stylish but yet have a cool military inspired feel.
The ammo can, light, leather satchel & canteen were all sourced from a local army surplus store.
Tank plate with US Army star.
I opted for decently high handlebars because I wanted to be able to ride long distances comfortably.
Chrome "bullet" style valve caps and shiny chrome chain.
Here you can see my tail light, which will eventually be hooked up to a battery that will reside inside of the ammo can.
Well, hope you guys like it. I certainly had fun putting it all together. Now to work on my wife's bike
