Shamu Bike from Busch Gardens...

[tsudhonimh]

O yeah... the only thing worth winning at the carney games is the bicycle. it isn't much to look @. and following in the trend I have set for myself I haven't taken before pics. so I harvested some from craigslist. some people are high when it comes to bike prices.

and

I was going to cutr this one up as it was similar to the jesse james chopper that kenny p posted on the thread the super tanker: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1491

this thing looked hideous and someone had taken the 20x3 kenda flames off of it and put on some knobbys. I started by taking the front forks down @ 4" and spending @ 2 hours peeling and de-adhearing the stickers. man what a difference. I threw some dyno bars on and cut the mud flaps off of the grips and it looked even better. I got a headlamp, seat, grips and some "tank" stickers to match. chain was banging on the chainstay so I taped it up with some friction tape. harvested the WCC stuff off of a trike project I was scrapping and viola. this was a cheap and easy build (modify really) and seems to get the most looks.
