heres it is at this moment. still need to touch up and clean the welds remove what's left of paint rust then weld on the engine and jackshaft mounts then paint it. but so far I like the direction it's going

Is the fork backwards?

 

[tombenn444]

yes. disregard that. perhaps it is not....going in the right direction after all

Only time will tell if it's going to be heavy handling with that much rack.

sometimes u gotta roll before u crawl and throw the dice. Columbus did. but seriously the rake does seem a bit long. it's just little stuff holding me up now. looks neat tho

I agree it looks great, if you're going to cruise around on it, it will be fine.

I call it the mk don't wanna turn worth a hell but seriously tho the handling ain't bad. I mean, it's not great but it's not bad. really stable tho I could take both hands off the bars with a bag of groceries in one hand. plus I can spin the bars 180° and gain some handling at the cost of stability. too bad I can't do that mid ride

Nice work!

and of course now my welder stopped working so I'm troubleshooting at this point on... think it's a resistor gone bad..

i lost my mom to cancer yesterday and I'm having trouble dealing with it. just lost dad to the same thing two years ago. times like this I dive into my work and ride to cope with it all and my bike needs a serious rebuild. I'm gonna reshape the frame to be a bit longer. I realize I'll have to cut and weld. what direction would u go with this frame? engine is a yd100 with jackshaft it's a 27" Schwinn but I'm using 26" wheels. thank u and im looking forward to reading amy of your opinions

All I can say is I'll pray for you because that's what I'm good at.
Check out what this guy does to an old Schwinn...
