The entire bike is flat black ( all the bikes I make are flat black :lol: ). What were you thinking, I'm always open to suggestions!

Re: Wild Bill- sand, fill, repeat

COMPLETE!
I had found this old headlight at one point and was diggin the look. I pulled the filament out added a switch and two 3 Volt White LEDs. I built a mount from some aluminum stock I had laying about. Refurbished an old tail light, added a more comfortable seat... I have an old glass rear reflector that I'm adding but other than that I'M DONE!

Now its time to move to the RRBO8

Bike looks great.
But I'm a noob to building bikes and would like to ask which of the Evercoat products are you using? Thanks
