I began with no plan and a garbage frame and forks purchased for $5. The only new (functional) parts were the sissy bar, front tire and grips. Everything else came from other bikes I had or were bought piece meal as used. Here is the Build thread.

Oh, and to showcase the camouflage, here's the bike in front of the hedge in my backyard.

I like the headlights mounted in the brake posts.
Thanks. I knew I wasn’t going to use a break and didn’t want to leave those posts just sitting there. My first thought was propellers. But they would have had to be really small to clear the tire. I was very fortunate that those little lights fit perfectly.
 
Sargeant Slaughter would be proud!!!
