That bike is awesome. The headlight is HUGE but for some reason I really like it!

That's a pretty awesome result so far for a bike that cost so little.

new tires, added a tail light. things left to do: levers, rearset controls, paint, seat upholstery and exhaust.
THe tires are Avon road riders. tail light is repop of an old british tail light.

We've gotta get together soon.. That shit looks sick!

I would have liked to have seen something different happen with the tail light, like a flush mounted LED strip or something a little more modern, but I absolutely love this bike! You've really come a long way man. You're doing awesome work.

On top of that, the paint is gorgeous! Love that color.
