Painter is ready to finish off my design, figured he'd be able to get the final design a rocking as he is used to this style of bike - cant wait. www.ryzart.com Note: Ray bet me $100 I wont have it ready for April - he'll see, $100 here I come :P
Image below doesnt look like the same bike but it is (cept from front tire is correct below and rear is bigger as its now a 5x16) this is kinda the look i'm going for - was looking at some twisted spokes but could be over the top..

Bike coming along, details, details, bloody horn too big n bulky for project - time to continue the hunt, custom ally bits looking good, footpegs - hmm not sure about - they have now been lowered and inch and follow the lines of the frame - stupid knobbly tire has to go, cant wait to get the speedmaster on it - they look so much better. Felt weird to sit on it, pretty wobbly feeling but that work itself out as bolts get tightened! bring on the paint!!!!!!

Givin the horn!

Picked up a decent looking Nikko horn, turned out better than i thought as it has the cool fog horn type opening, just need a battery to test it out now..


Ignition switch is going to have a ally housing that matches the risers and exhaust tips.

Found my License plate holder too!

I've been umming and arring about what to do for this, really wanted something light weight and most of the stuff on the market is heavy duty steel and is way over engineered - found this from the same guy as the engine mounts (maunds) - cheap as chips ($30 incl p&p) and with the old school lucas style light it'll all look good and clean.


New additions

Finally went for it and picked some engine mounts, decent polished aluminium stuff - works out cheaper than building your own or having ones made for you - it'd cost me $50 just to get them polished - course could have done it myself but heck now is not the time to be learnin'
