Don't know if this is where ya want me to post this, if not just let me know where. Schwinn chopper rear, got the OCC bike minus the front wheel for $10.00. The tire has dry rot but will let me size it for the build, want to run a motorcyle tire if I can find a reasonable priced one. Using square tubing cuz I've got a but load of it, and I dont mind the look and flat surfaces for mounting and welding. I've got a 20" LESTER alloy mag I salvaged for the front, orange with a couple of nicks in it, I'll fill it in and repaint. I've got several Briggs engines so no need to buy the 2 strokes and deal with mixing and fouling, good ole 4 stroke nice on the torque to haul my fat ole butt around. I think I'm looking at arond a 60" wheelbase with a 40 degree rake.

Please keep us posted!........I asked some one "What the heck is that little square thing, next to the frame?" They said it was a TAPE MEASURE. What's that? (never used one before)
 
Cyrus as in "CON-AIR" John Malcovich, I could double for him in the scene as he's stepping off the corrections bus at the airfield. Spooked me when I saw the pics, previous co-workers gave me the nickname.

I'm hoping to get the front end mounted up this weekend if I dont get pulled out of the shop. Still need to get a clutch for the motor and set up a jackshaft system, And I still am working on the trike chassis using atv rears from Duro in a rain tread pattern, get it real low to the ground.
