This is the bike that started all of the cruiser fandom for me...
I was going around looking at garage sales and i saw this bike....Black and white with alotta rust. i asked the guy how much, he says 25 but for you, ill take 5. So later i go and check if the bike is still there (this was about 5 years ago, i didnt carry cash around) the sale was closing and i went up to the garage and asked the guy if he sitll had the bike. He ended up giving it to me. Now, i didnt know much about cruisers then so i rode the HECK out of it, i put a 20 inch wheel on the front and rode it around grindin the pedals creatin sparks and all that fun stuff...Then about 3 years later i decided to work on the thing and tear it apart and repaint it (how it is now) and now i had the bike the way it stands for 2-2 1/2 years. I LOVE IT. So basically this was my first actual RAT (and the years were probably WAY longer, but i cant remember, it sat for a LONG time)
SO anywhoo...heres my hudson, hope you like it
terrible pictures, weathers been sucking...plus its dark out
one of the coolest chainguards ive seen on a bike
plans: Add a mirror, with a certain "rat" patina some of you may like- Add lights...working or not
