Saddle up-prepping for a winter build
Woop Woop!!!
Here's the plan. I want to buy the crappiest bike I can find on Craigslist for a screaming deal and build the eff out of it. I'm talking full, homemade, busted knuckle, ground up, custom build. I'm thinking of doing the infamous hardtail bobber/brat/chop/rat solo spring seat DIIIIIRTY looking cruiser. I know that we all love our sportys here, so I'm not looking for help with my new harley ![]() ![]() ![]() Think of a cowboy (insert Brokeback mountain joke here). John Wayne and Wyatt Earp would be proud of the bike design. Pegs that look like stirrups and reins on the bars. A ten gallon hat fixed to the top of a full face helmet and a toy revolver in a holster on the side of the seat. Think of a Viking. Fur and horns. A Warship dragon headlight and front fairing Think of Mario Cart. With a red turtle shell tank and a banana peel brake light. Go buck wild. Release your inner child. Any design ideas, no matter how crazy, off the wall, sarcastic (I'm looking at you @alex.s). Hit me lol.

Make a frenken bike... Buy a ninjette frame, 650 engine + wiring harness, zx6r front and rear end... You get the drift... Good luck!

Theme? Simple.
Duct tape and zipties. Make the bike look like it's about to fall apart at any moment. Maybe even zippers... hose clamps... twist ties.... C clamps.... Adds to the whole Frankenstein aesthetic. The beauty is that it's easy to refresh the look at any time.
