"They call me the breeze..."

Once again I can't thank everyone enough for all their help with this bike. :DPainting techniques, chain alighnment, springer forks and engine mounting. I had to clean out my PM box twice with all the advice I was given.
I had planned on getting springers before the forks hit the mail box. The head set got lost in the wreck so I ordered a new set wich didn't fit. So the Disney Princess' lost their head:eek: for a good cause and a perfect fit.

The frame made for difficult installation so I welded a front spacer.
I put the CDI up high and ran extra wire then used the heat shrink wire wrap for a clean look. Showing off my Texas pride too. And last but not least please welcome the newest MBc rider Duke.

I know how closely everyone looks at details. The chain is loose the threads on the tensioner are stripped and Dax and Spooky are out for several weeks.

Actually Dan here's my favorite seat in the house. Best $9 I ever spent.:D

My 7 year old loves racing down the driveway on it too.

Duke

:D Wow! What a nice looking bike, you did the paint job? I have a similar little girls Schwin bike, which has already given up the rear axle slots, much thicker material.

We also have a "Duke" dog, I haven't tried to take him for a ride yet, but summer's coming. He's 7 mos. old, and rules the roost, nothing like a 5 pound Chihuahua!

Nice job on the bike, hope it's not your last.

Scrollerguy:)
 
HEY! How come nobody's crying for the desecration of the poor little princess bicycle?
That makes me cry!
 
princess bike? all i saw was spare parts :p

i bet you look pretty silly when you cry :LOL:
 
Fantastic job on the bike Scott! You learned so fast that, you'll have to put it in reverse to teach me!
Large, Now that would be a great picture for the white zone, a Large Filipino on a 10" lil Princess ( with motor ). Ha Heh Ha Ha.

The very first cassette tape I ever bought was Lynyrd Skynyrd's Second Helping from my friend Steve at school for $2. They've been my favorite band since then. I was wondering what to name my bike one day on the drive home from work. The one day I wasn't day dreaming about the PNW rally:LOL:. Call Me the Breeze came on the radio and I yelled out loud in the car "That's it!".

Anyhow, thanks for the compliments. You all have brought out the creativity in me. I really admire all y'alls inspiration and encouragement. I tend to do stuff half hearted and it turns out sloppy and short lived. I kow how close attention to detail everyone pays;). My first paint job was bad and I didn't want to post because I knew you all would see the ugliness, even though I know most artist hate their own work, but no one here ever puts down their Motored Bikes:D. So I wanted to do my best for you because you've spent so much time teaching and encouraging me. I know it's mushy I but I know you know what I mean.
I'm really friggin proud of my bike and it gives me a kick that you are too.:cool:
Thanks for everything
