I have learned alot since this was put together as my first build It looked great rode like :lol: do do :lol: since then i have put 3 speeds or kickbacks on my builds and have put some thought into how it will ride 8) I tore this one down a while back and took the pieces to the midwest swap meet but i put a high price on the frame because i was having second thoughts any way the frame did not sell. so i threw some pieces at it today and i think i like it and wanted to see what you guys thought 8) before pic

Re: kansas 64 getting redone

I used a pair of those forks on my build off bike last year, but I cut the legs on mine down so the tire was just under the lover plate. I think it gives it a tougher stance. The build never got completed and all the parts were sold.

Re: kansas 64 getting redone

I like the lower one better too, maybe even just one in the middle in front of the head badge. Here's my OCC forks, they ride way better than expected...

Seems this is the one bike that I am never satisfied with :? so i worked on it some more today. I removed the decals from the forks and polished them, then cut 5" off rides better now added speedometer,changed seat, added seat leather bag, and leather fringe to hand grips

nice and clean,shame to cut down forks but it eliminates the flip flop that you get unless you cut up the frame and rake it up and out,this looks so cruisy to ride :D
