'47 ReD-X - The "M" Project?

[rat royale]

This one was built after not being able to make my mind up to use it for the "X" Project because it was so nice as is. It was a frame and chainguad only on arrival..

Nice lookin. I like the Retrorunner tires on it.

Thanks... Those are actually the "Streetracer" tires - I liked the tread better..

Was that Rocky?????? :mrgreen:

That photo looks a lot like my Maine Coon cat... The dogs think he's a 'coon, but I don't give them credit for being very bright. (And he's bigger than them anyway!)

Thanks for the comments!

I have some future plans for this, but am just ridin' it as is for now. It will get some red fork parts (paint them) and a rack on it eventually.. Just haven't gotten that far. The rack is already here too.

The other frame (the "non-brazed on kickstand type) like this may end up in a different configuration altogether. Haven't quite settled on that yet. May even part with it. If it goes, then I don't have to up for another tank... hmmmm.... saved money......

That seat is one of two like that I got from Fleebay a few years ago. They are not the same brand, but are similar. I think they were made in China or someplace. Basically a fat version imitation of a Brookes. Not as comfortable as a nicely broken in Brookes, but they get the job done. One's a "HERO", the other is a "K W."
I have not seen any like them posted since getting them. I think it was early in 2005.

Yeah, I do that after lookin' at alot of the stuff that shows up here. It's kinda contageous! :wink:
