Greetings From Bali!

[Sparky Sharky]

Hey there, American expat in Bali here.
I really like the idea of this kind of a bike, and am hoping to restore a jungle bike I came across a few years ago.
Seems to be a good candidate from what I can tell and I am looking for advice.
Thanks a lot!

Welcome aboard!

Your bike just needs some oil and some air and maybe a new chain.

Welcome to Rat Rod Bikes!
Cool to see someone posting from paradise!

In the center of the island, you should try and find this roadside bike dude.

When we were there in 2012, I scored this perfect souvenir from him.

Looking forward to seeing pics of your bike and the amazing scenery on Bali.

Your build should be centered on what you intend to use the bike for, such as a surfboard hauler to get you to places such as Uluwatu...

My wife has major longing for Bali. She can't wait to get back to travelling

I'm looking to use bike for daily exercise and also want to put a rack and paniers on for hauling groceries etc. I wish I was more of a surfer, but I will be riding 6km to the beach every day anyway! Thanks for your reply and the photo!

Bali is beautiful in many ways, but the situation right now in this country is pretty dire. Hopefully next year things will be back to something like normal. Cheers!

I just looked at your photos from Bali and elsewhere in SEA. Great stuff and what an adventure! Be sure to tell me if you ever come this way again!
