Hi Everyone! I approached this build like it was a '57 Chevy that I wanted to customize. I derusted, repainted, replaced & repaired. This is the first bike I've ever built from the frame up and I've been properly schooled on a number of tasks I've never done before. As I entered into each new phase of the project all I had to do was turn to you RRB members for advice and guidance.

This is not the best painted bike in the build-off but it runs like a top and I now have a cool looking daily rider. Thanks to everyone that helped me out and all the words of encouragement many members gave along the way. RRB is Tops!

I'd like to send out a special thanks to rico - he's been my #1 cheering section throughout the build and I turned to him many times as I nervously tried something new. Thank you Mike!

Here is my build thread:

And now, for your viewing pleasure -

UUUHHhhhhhhhhhhmazing, my jaw was agape the whole time I was scrolling down.

To me the bars on a bike are like a thermostat, they set the mood for the rest of the bike. Those bars rock.

Yeah, Jeff (SimpleMan) said to me once that we ought to get some RRBers together for a ride - he's another CWC build. I went to his place of work one time to pick up a bike and I new immediately I was at the right place - his CWC rider was strapped in the back of his truck upright. There's a bunch of guys here in the Indy area too. I actually live just off I-65 South in Greenwood. I might as well warn you - this CWC is never going off road. I'm a cruiser. Great idea.

All of you're hard work has paid you right off , that is one great build love all of the detail that when into it the black ,gray and gold realy a great combination on colors never less the pictures taken ,my favorite is the sun down ones realy makes the bike bring all it's glory right out .
