Salvation is at hand!
Mr. E. offered to help me out with the rearwheel that was derailing the project and my mentalhealth.... I met Mr.E. in real life just once a few months back, I 'knew' him before that from THE dutch lowbudget chopper forum. So it was very cool of him to offer his help to me, a near complete stranger. So yesterday I drove my lil Skoda filled with old brit iron up to his house, 2,5 hours away. I arrived at his house at 10.00 in the morning and left at 23.15 at night.
During this time Mr. E. worked on my wheel, drawing, calculating and machining.... after 13 hours the wheel was done.... and perfectly!
It fits like glove now! The sprocket is inline and so is the wheel it self.
I'm a very happy guy! Now I can move on with this project!

NICE!
I'm very very thankfull! For all the work, the time, the effort, the skilled craftmanship, the drinks and the food!
Its insane that Mr. E. invested that much time and work in a near complete stranger!
Blessed be Mr. E.!

The last couple of weeks, no even months I did'nt even look at this project.
Lack of time and will.... and $...
Got some stuff to try out..... like these things...
Those weird twisted struts would look great with the soloseat and those twisted springs Tjeerd gave me + a nice ribbed fender would look great.... (ignore the helmet and the tank..not mine..)

Freaking out the squares... (incl. me)
This kinda freaks me out. The homemade wheels, well somebody made them at home at some point in time, are freaking me out. The rear needs a narrow sprockethub that fits. The only one that works on the wheel is too wide. In the front I need to get some mopped/scooter disk, brake etc. In the picture the tank is pretty big and it seems that the front could loose a couple of inches more... but in real life its perfect.
Need to do a lot of stuff, get the wheels to fit (with drive and brake stuff and axles.....), get some new rubber, fix bars + controles, mount rear fender + mini kingandqueenseat + sissybar, get a aircleaner, re-wire everything,.. get it running!

eBay part2


this is a very nice original hand made sissybar from the sixties.very well made and very solid,about 3 feet tall ,and heavy.solid round stock.the patina chrome is really nice too. i'm not sure what it was originally mounted on but it is so long that it could easily be modified to fit anything.though it looks alright just hangin on the wall.period piece.sorry but shipping might be a lot as its long and heavy.i'll figure it out after the auction.
Item number: 290284499363
I saw one of these a couple of years ago on eBay... Useless in my country... but pretty sweet non the less...

Who says eBay sucks?
I'm not part of a scene and I dont have loads of friends that ride old bikes with old and cool parts.
I dont fly to California like once a year.
I dont know shit...
That why eBay works for me.
These things I like!

Unfortunatly I was too late for the pipes, i wanted those!
But due to US shipping only I needed to fix an address in the US. By the time that was done... the pipes were gone...

That frame is pretty wild! I love it!
