Cool stuff going on here Jake!!
Silver is looking sharp!!
Love how you worked the rear fender.
Nice Schwinn cushion grips too.

Looking sharp buddy!!

Is the front fork bent?
HEY YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSE TO SEE THAT!! :roll: IT WAS LIKE THAT WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I WANT TO ADD SOME HEAVY DUTY FORKS TO MAKE IT MORE MORTORCYCLE LIKE. ALSO IF YOU NOTICE THE FRONT SPRINGER HEADTUBE PART IS BROKE. THAT'S WHY I GOT IT FOR 10 BUCKS. THE BIKE IS PRETTY SOLID THOUGH. I LOVE THOSE GRIPS ALSO! 5 BUCKS!! WA HOO!!
 
Re: PUBLIC ENEMY (NEW SKIN)

I actually missed the fact that the springer fork was attached so that is wouldn't spring. It still looks cool and a great way to get the look you are going for!!! Diggin it!!! Keep going!

Ok I got it. Now stay tuned it gets better. After I sand it and hit it with more paint and 10 clear coats we'll be cooking. Next up the dreaded :mrgreen: tank. Have a good holiday everyone. B step away from that grill! :D Peace

Hmmm, a change in color, eh? I would have never guessed that :mrgreen:

The red is sweet--has some pop to it.

What the...!? The seat has changed also.
Did you miss the whole "How to" section Peat?!? Now doesn't it look Tuff now?!? I added some new things. I'll post em later. Peace

Way to go B!! I had two of them. Hey what type of bike is this?!? Should the tank be red or black? :idea:
 
Both! Tape of a tear drop in the sides to be red. Leave the outline black.
 
I gotta ask...where is that tank from?

It's a part I found at NBW in the freebie bin. I have no idea what it is. I have two of them.
Peatbog said:
I say hmmm also as there is a conundrum going on here. The all-black tank rolls in line with the seat well, but a part-red/part-black seat would rock too. Hmmmm.
Hey now ya got me thinking! Stop the madness will return! Ya know my builds aren't written in stone. Come back next week and I'll change it again. Ha
 
Peatbog said:
Ha! Those of us who have been around awhile know that when a Jake bike appears, sometimes you just sit back, watch, and learn.
Words of wisdom cuz I don't know what I'll do till- I say I'm done! Did anyone notice how the seat is mounted?!?
