but she's on her way...
This is how it started (sorry the pics suck so bad!)
Bone stock KK roadster...
Then stripped everything off, only kept the frame, rear fender, seat post and neck for the handlebars
Currently putting her back together, slowly accumulating parts...
Ordered a quick and thick brick, should be here in a day or two, picked up a bullet headlight and mounted it today, here's some current progress pics...
What do you guys think of the handle bars? I had a couple laying around. I dont know if I like it or not, I think I need to wait until I get the rims and tires on. Once those are on I can decide what shape bars to go with. Then I'll chop the rear fender and install it, then all I'll need is crank, and grips. What do you guys think?
UPDATE 5/18!!
BIG UPDATE 5/19!!
This is big time, super excited. I loved the way it is turning out. The bars are still up in the air, but I do like them. I reworked the bracket a bit for the headlight, I think it's sitting perfect now. You guys tell me...
The seat is temporary right now, my new seat should be here tomorrow or Thursday.
The crank got left in Chino on accident, so I can't set the chain and rear fender, but I was able to chop it up and bang it into shape...
Kind've looked like this before:
Then it looked like this:
before the grinder...
Rough fitting on how it will sit when it's finished (have to wait til I put the crank and chain on)
Like I said, still not sure on the bars, I might want something that comes straight back where the grips will be (almost 90 degree turn) instead of out and back like these do.
But the only things left for the build should be grips, the seat and the crank. (Might get a seat post the kicks back, I want the seat to be as close as possible to the rear fender) What do you guys think so far?
