Schwinn motorized ratrod bike build

[Cyclonestrem]

Hey guys how's it going I'm new to the forum but I've always loved bikes. Currently I'm working on my second motorized bike build this ones based on a board tracker style. I got a schwinn legacy off a Craigslist guy for 70 bucks here it is.

I liked it but I knew it could be better, I purchased a general 5 star moped tank but it didn't fit so I had to cut the cross bars on the schwinn then I gave it a rattlecan paint job and I must say I'm very proud. Next I got a vintage bianchi road bike stem and threw on some oak handlebars put a nice polyurethane finish on them and they came out beautiful. Also got a springer fork.

Next up I want to add a retro headlight, brooks springer seat, pirate cycles 80cc engine and of course mount my vintage gas tank. Let me know what's you guys think thanks
