MotoDromo Special II... cutting it close.

[jasper87]

Well I cut that one a little closer than I would have liked, but better late than never. I have to admit I kinda burned myself out getting the bike done for last weeks Shiny Side Up show, and this week I was swamped at work. So instead of some subtle paint I went with some sticker bombing With the race look I was goin for I think it worked out pretty good.

That being said, I want to apologize for not commenting nearly as much as I would have liked on all your awesome builds and threads during this build off. It was a very busy few months at work and I put a ton of time into this bike and was simply too tired/lazy by the time I would upload my progress at night. So I want to thank all of you for liking and commenting on my thread and encouraging me along the way

Cheers!

I can only Imagine the hours that went into this build not to mention the hours just thinking about how to do it ! It looks great and the bare metal look is cool and no paint to chip , I like it ! I would buy a plane ticket to take it for a spin , just kidding ! But it is wicked cool great job I bet you could use a vacation now !!!

Great design & execution. The seat & sheet metal work are standouts.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. This is one of my three choices.
Well done,looks and sounds amazing. I've never had a motorized bike run or sound like this.

Im voting for it, soon as i saw it at shiny side. Its stunning and the level of detail is just over the top. The bar has been raised

Haha how right you are, I almost forgot what the sun looked like And you'd be more than welcome to take it for a spin, thanks!

Thanks! I really put my heart and soul into this one, an homage to a life long love of racing and vintage motorcycles. And on a surprisingly small budget

Great design & execution. The seat & sheet metal work are standouts.

Thanks Like I said somewhere in my build thread, from the get go I was trying to make a pedalable motorcycle instead of a motorized bicycle

Thanks Kingfish I really had a blast building it. I guess the years of trolling sites like BikeExif finally paid off.

Not to sound like a Sandow,but....

You're Welcome.

All seriousness though,I do really like this bike. And I think you have motivated me to do a motorized build of my own, just have to make the time between work and school.

Sweet build. I wish I could weld this world would be 10 times more awseome . Is that a haro sprocket? Fusion actually? ?

AWESOME build,love it,fun vid too

 

[order99]

Not only a motorbike, but it's the first one i've seen in ages that isn't either a direct Indian or early Harley tribute...

(Not that I don't love Indians and Harleys, mind you )

In other words, LOVE IT!!

Haha thanks. You should definitely build a motorized bike, I built my first one while in college in my in my 3rd floor apartment kitchen. Rode it to class every day

Thanks, lol I cant recommend it more, definitely opens up a world of fun. I got the sprocket from a broken mongoose bmx bike i got for 5 bucks at a yard sale JUST for that sprocket. Ive never seen one before so I had to get it...

AWESOME build,love it,fun vid too

Thanks I almost didnt make the vid
