Evans Colson ... Change "Hombre" DONE

[Pedal_junky]

Got all the details worked out finally. Working headlight, battery tube, wiring etc. New apes for more room in the cockpit, mounted the tire bell lever on the top tube with Peterbilt toggle and trimmed the rear fender a bit. It rides solid and I'm very proud of herrr, ahem, him. Here are some photos I took today and the first one is the day I got the bike. Here is the link to my build

Thanks for all the positive comments on this build and the spur from a few members to enter the build off. It's been real. Hasta!

Before shot of the seniorita.

After, Hombre.

Here's the vid of the tire bell. It sounds like it's saying "WAKE UP!"




Downtown.

Here's one post op with shiny top tubes.

Haha! I've never started a ride in the rain, but finished many.

I happen to be working on a sealed beam headlight led conversion with a homemade battery tube. I guess the old saying is correct- "Great minds think alike". My tube is almost identical to yours-1 1/2 copper with caps. Nice job on your build!

Thanks Johnny, I went 1" so I could use C cells. With the price of original battery tubes, we have to make a stand!

Thanks a lot, sincerely appreciate that. I'm glad I decided to document the build from the very beginning so that it's not just another bike.

The fenders and seat give it a real tail dragger look. I like !
