Something a little different!

[CBURKE]

Took the bike out for a couple mile ride.... Loved it!!!
I'm starting on another one because I loved they way this one rides......

[CBURKE]

All done! Might play with the seat a little, not sure if I like how it sits, but LOVE how the bike turned out for my first build. Can't wait to get started on the next one!

All for now until I can get some paint on it! Getting closer....

[CBURKE]

Well chain is on and took it for a test ride. Going to take some getting use to, but so far so good! Need to make a little room in the back for the chain, rubs a little.

Also did some work to a kickstand.

That's all for now. For being my first bike build ever, I'm really happy with it!
Thanks for looking!

[crxmarc]

very nice work!

[CBURKE]

Doing some test panels to see how I want to lay the "Fotina"

I think I'm going to go with spraying both colors and wet sanding until it comes through, like this:
20141102_124323 by cburke.industries, on Flickr

This is just sprayed on
20141102_124329 by cburke.industries, on Flickr

Here is a v-cover I did to hang in my garage.
20141103_083305 by cburke.industries, on Flickr

Tonight I will try and get the new crank holder (whatever it's called) moved to the front and finish grinding down the welds.

[CBURKE]

I'm not gonna mess with the crank being only a 1/2 inch from the ground so I cut the lower bar and moved it down. I don't have a pipe bender so I used pie cuts to bend the bottom half and slid a small but thicker tube inside.

20141028_192724 by cburke.industries, on Flickr

Now I need to finish grinding down the welds, had a little putty and I have a smaller bar I want to run across the middle.
All for now!

[DonkeyPunch]

Taillight came in. Will need to build a bracket to hold it. Not sure how I'm going to get this light to work. I only has one wire....
ZOMBIEHEARSEHEADBADGE by cburke.industries, on Flickr

It should be self grounding... the wire should go to your power source

[CBURKE]

Headlight is in!
20141027_173810 by cburke.industries, on Flickr

Cut my fender, but it's not done.
20141027_175904 by cburke.industries, on Flickr

Getting ready to strip it all back apart so I can strip the old paint.

[CBURKE]

Seat post is done. I should be getting things done a little faster now that I got a bunch of customers stuff out of the way.

Time to order my seat!

[CBURKE]

Awesome build, I personally like the springer front forks. As far as the light it's probably internally grounded.

I think so too. If anything it'll look cool lol.
Waiting on the headlight.
