This is my first post and first build. so please don't not speak up because of a "obvious issue" . But I've read a lot and looking for opinions.
First. I'm pretty sure i chose to go with a 4 stroke.(ghost racer 7G?) mostly for reliability. ill like to be able to cruise between fishing spots and back and forth to college occasionally. (7.2 miles safe route)
Second. i want to go with an old school Army theme (OD green and white star). i was thinking this bike.http://www.walmart.com/ip/29-Huffy-Millennial-Men-s-Cruiser-Bike-Grey/27831874
Ill take it apart and paint it up and all. I've thrown around the idea of my gas tank being a ammo can locate on a rack over the rear tire. but it might look a little goofy and get in the way of a backpack. or find someone to fabricate a gas tank to fit in the frame. but might be pricey. or go with the tear drop tank .
Third. i want to flip the bars for the matched look but concerned about comfort. I also plan to sweep back the seat post for the bobber type leather seat. do they sell seat posts like that already?
Thanks in advance and I promise to keep you all posted when the build comes together!
