The breathtaking electrical cruiser from Sweden!

[Haddock]

Thats what I call it, or maybe not.

Anyway, I think It will be fun to look back on this thread when Im finished.
Also to show you guys how awsome this bike will be!

I will uppdate with pics and info asap.

The bike when starting.

The front fork will be taken from a bike just like this one.

The rear wheel is now fitted, a 4.25" wide rim with a 500w electrical motor.



Best regards/ Nicklas

Undrar om inte det är morsan och farsans granne...Den med en stor Viper-dekal i framrutan, för att ingen ska kunna missta sig? :lol:
Men för tillfället bor jag i Karlstad och pluggar.

Rock on!

Hmm, kanske det, kommer inte ihåg.
VI hyrde in oss i en gul liten kåk på deras gård, kommer inte ihåg precis vad det hette.

Heres some pics with the new rear wheel fitted.

I do not know if its to much rubber on the rear wheel but I will change that later if needed.
I think I will change the front wheel to when I get the new fork mounted.

Here is the fork than im waiting for.

Re: The faboulus electrical HOGdogging cruiser from Sweden!

Im also thinking of moving the seat back a bit so its not so close to the pedals (Im quite tall)

And I do not know how I should have whitewalls on or not, if i Should paunt the rims red.
The plate on the fram i think I will do in some wood and set my logo in leafgold, and pinstripe the edges.

The wiereing will be in the fram as mutch as possible.
The battery pack will be in a saddelbag, witch I have not found yet..

Best regards/ Nicklas

Re: The faboulus electrical HOGdogging cruiser from Sweden!

Looks good! I think whitewalls will look nice if you're planning on painting the rims red. And your idea for the wood piece sounds really cool!

Re: The faboulus electrical HOGdogging cruiser from Sweden!

Very cool frame Haddock.
Goldleaf, pinstripe, wood, red rims + whitewalls, apears to become a pretty oldschool looking bike.
I know that a clean look sometimes is good, but maybe you would consider to leave the wires exposed a bit more and use a wire like this;

I had a friend from the states send these over, but i know this is available in europe too and in many colors, I know sweden has a good hotrod scene and those hotrodshop usualy know where to get these, I think those wires would look rat on your bike.

Always wanted to go to vasteras custom meeting, never got to it, been to sweden once in winter, remember the ice on the highways and the snow on the hillsides, every corner you turned a new christmascard landscape showed up, loved that.

Galtbacken: Satan i gatan vilka hojjar du pusslat ihop då
MKT IMPONERAD!

Badmuller:
That might be something.
I do not want the gasshandle wire to show but that is hard to do in a good way, maybe I can use that kind of wire..
I will think of it.

Best regards/

 

[Haddock]

Re: The fabuolus electrical HOGdogging cruiser from Sweden!

changed plans..
The bike will be matt red and creamwhite like the front fork.

I got it today and tryed it on.
I think it will be awsome.

The pic sucks, will try to take a new one as soon as I get it mounted for real.

The handle bar does not work anymore though..
But Im thinking of some old race style..
