RIDE-ON

[MattiThundrrr]

Now he casually drops a shrouded Elgin like it's no biggie. I keep getting slaughtered by the background bikes, Vin!
I think the stripped down look is best. Have you tried the rack without fenders?

 

[mnelson446]

I agree the tires are eye candy, and I like the look with the tank!

 

[Vin-New]

Chain guard no chain guard?

 

[Tallbikeman]

Likes: Fat tires, skip chain, great looking vintage seat, front suspension fork and handlebars. I love the tank. I like the fenderless, rackless look the best. I think the tire size and color sells the bike the best. I'm a chainguard guy and you are considering one. Right on. Really fine looking klunker/cruiser.

Chain guard

 

[Vin-New]

Found my lost box of goodies! What can I use???

 

[Vin-New]

Added the Colson Chain guard.

 

[Vin-New]

The subtle Monark Rear Rack…?

 

[Vin-New]

Gave the Monark Springer a try, don’t think I like it…

Killer goody stash!
Here is my take on the cool combos.
The longspring saddle is a must.
The tires look way cooler with no fenders. The rear looks okay with the rack, but looks better without it.
The bike looks better with the tank on it than with it removed.
Both the X53 and the Colson guard look great, but I think the Colson turkey wing looks the coolest.
The Monark springer doesn't quite look right on there. The Roadmaster springer looks great, but I bet the beehive may look even better.
Killer build in so many configurations, but those are my opinions on the coolest combo.

Didn’t get much done on my Build with the Honey-Due-List for today including building her a electrified bike! I’ll have to add a rear rack to mount the battery.
I guess you could say was a good break from my normal build routine to kinda refresh the mind.

 

[Vin-New]

I guess I won’t be touching my build for a bit.. the wife wants a more vintage electrified bike! So had to dig thru my forgotten pile.

I am fascinated by the whole chainguard issue, because my experience in the UK is that chain guards were usually simply simply that - two piece boxes to enclose the chain or a basic top cover. I am sure there were good ones fitted, and while I enjoy many of the ones I see here I am more fascinated by how many people say yes to you fitting one

 

[Vin-New]

Since my Wife forced me to dig thru my forgotten pile, thought I’d try the skirt-guards on Ride-On build!

 

[Vin-New]

CWC or JCH Springer?

 

[Couch tater]

I'm partial to the bee hive for looks, the shock master for the smooth ride. That didn't help at all I'm sure

Haha!

 

[OddJob]

If you want to keep the headlight, leave it as is. Otherwise, the bee hive is really cool.

 

[MattiThundrrr]

I prefer the JCH spring on its own, but that headlight looks so good on there that I think I will vote for the more svelte Shockmaster for this application. You have a great parts pile to work with, I'm enjoying this
