So I finally got around to building myself a bike, I havn't had a cruiser of my own in a very long time (years ago I had a mid 30's roll fast that I loved to death, but we parted ways). So I built this bike, given to me by my wife (was given to her by her grandmother) I think it was probably an early 90's murry. The chain guard and rear fender are from an older mercury, the fork and wheels i bought a couple years ago, and the rest of the parts i found. The only thing i did buy new was the headset (which I ordered in the wrong size, so i cut the old cups up, welded them as shims onto the new cups, and viola, a very long way around stepping the headset up a size). Anyways, here's the pictures, I built/fabbed/painted everything myself. It's super fun to ride and both lights are super bright at night (even though they don't look it). I built this bike inspired by VooDoo Larry's VooDoo Diablo car (hence the title...) VooDoo Larry is such a talented builder, if you don't know who he is, go inform yourself right now...then come back and look at my bike.
Lots of little things on this one, was a blast to build! Thanks for looking :wink:
