Re: Bike of fire

Today my 8 year old said "Dad we need to work on a rat today". It just warms my heart to hear those words come directly out of the mouth of my very own offspring. Didnt have much to do on the build off 4 bike so lets have a go with the old flame. I have this seat that just seems to fit the curve of this bike perfect. First we put a tig weld on this seat post section to support the front of the seat.

We then put the seat into the post to see what we were going to have to support the rear of the seat.

Unfortunatly the sissy bar posts were not long enough to reach down to the rear axle, so I will search for some stock tubing tommorrow and weld up the ends. Heres a sneak peak at what Im doing with the paint and heres my inspiration showing off a job well done.
