I saw the Adam Gaskill this weekend. He says hello KF, he had no idea his parts are getting so much attention these days. He's an artist and humble! What a guy!

Cleared $200 profit from the Cannondale in less that 72 hours!!!
This more than covers the cost of the parts below, so I guess I got some free parts!
Had two packages waiting for me when I got home tonight.
I am really digging the cross bars for starsNbars. The huge kickstand is definitely going on too.
The coolest part is the Gaskill Hop Shop Higgins rack. I thought the lettering was painted on, but it is actually masking tape that has been varnished over. It's held up incredibily well considering that I am the 3rd RRBer to own this since Gaskill sold it to Tyler.
It's so cool to own two items from such a skilled artist (not a doodad king
)!

He who dies with the most toys ,still dies No Fear
Seems like I've had those parts in My Shop for quite awhile ,Thought it was about time too pass them along ,I have quite a few people passing though and it was always fun to watch them try to guess what that rack was ...I guess if your not a Classic Bike person its hard too make heads or tails out of some things ..
Enjoy !

I'll definitely enjoy this piece. The lettering is pretty basic but so vintage hot rod too. I still think it is so cool that it is actually plain old masking tape. Kinda gives the tank a mixed media art piece vibe. THANKS AGAIN.
Please pardon that interruption. Back to our regularly scheduled program.
I took this pic tonight to try and show the wicked masking tape lettering that Gaskill did on this rack. Too cool for school!!!!

Ya know, I never noticed it was masking tape!
That's the genius of it! You don't really notice it at all. The numbers on the speedo are masking tape also and I bet the 696 on your Speed Demon skirt guards were too. I didn't see it until I looked close at how the lettering was done and I saw that it had a cool texture to it and then I realized ... wow, that's masking tape. Very cool technique.

Good to see such good members get things worked out ! As to the glass bags, they sure are cool. Maybe aftermarket bags used on any motorcycle or bike.
I don't know if I would go that far. It's more fair to say that we are two grumpy old men that don't see eye to eye and agree to disagree.
The saddlebags are definitely aftermarket. Their a bit too nice to be for a bicycle, I am pretty sure these are motorcycle aftermarket. Still trying to price them out before I put them on ebay.
Slow day at yard sales. I only got 3 cans of red primer for $1 and a bag of tools for $4. But as I was riding down the lane with starsNbars, I found two like new Co Pilot child bike seats laying next to the trash. I googled them and saw that these suckers sell for $130 new!!!! I snatched them up and only had to take them a block away to my house. I should be able to sell these for close to what I paid for my starsNbars frame. They may not look like much, but to me they look like a FREE 1938 Hawthorne Twin Bar.
SOLD for more than what I paid for my starsNbars frame.

Picked up this Specialized Hardrock Sport for only $50 on CL today. All it needs is air, wash down, and chain lube. I should easily clear enough profit to pay for my Worksman three speed wheels and BOA tires on starsNbars.
