Nice!!! Do you know about the fork-flipping-trick? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

 

[BankerRAt]

No but Im alll ears Mark

 

[Markm]

flip the "drop outs", left to right and pull the springer part forward...it rakes it out!

 

[BankerRAt]

Sweet, Im gonna try that!

 

[thatismytruck]

Bluesy would look good with the forks like that!!

 

[BankerRAt]

I think so too. Just dont think I have the clearance with the fender

 

[KOTA]

That bike looks ICE COLD!

 

[mastershake916]

I think that it wouldn't look as good with the fork the other way.

BEAUTIFUL BIKE. Blue and chrome looks so nice together. TRY the forks like that PLEASSSE haha it would look great. Beautiful bike myfriend. I got enough parts to build one just look it, however mine would probably look like sh..poop compaired to yours. Chrome is GONE on my stuff. GREAT LOOKING BIKE CANT WAIT To see her finished.

Yeah if you're using the fender, you can't flip the fork. I have one on my spaceliner flipped, and it looks good, but I think come spring I'll flip it around again. It steers a little more floppy... and it lowers the bike. sometimes my toe drags if my pedal is at the bottom of it's stroke and I'm leaning that way. Never caused an accident, but a little unsettling at times...

Well "BLUESY" is nearly copmplete! What do you guys think about a metalic blue chain? I dont want it to look like a premadona bike... after all, isnt that why we are all here FOR THE RAT OF IT!

I think a blue chain would wrap up your bike nicely.
