A little more progress on the chop/bob updated 2-21-11 RUNNING VIDS!

[Pasta Bobber]

We put some rattle can paint on the bike to keep it from rusting and to give us a better idea of how it might look. All we have left is the rear fender and then it's time to start hacking up the harness, and try to find some place to hide all the wiring.  I'm hoping to have it running in a month or so.

Well, I can say it looks interesting. Not sure if I like it, but I don't dislike it...

[1KDS]

It's awesome dude

[pennyrobber]

Looking good so far.

Looks great.  Funny, the tank looks like the most original part on the bike, it's the only body line that looks familiar   Nice job.

Looks awesome man!  Can't wait to see the end result.

[Pasta Bobber]

Thanks guys  it's nice to get a little motivation. Yeah Scott thanks for noticing the tank. I wanted a custom tank but still wanted it to have that buffalo hump monster style tank look. Everybody says it's too big. I dig it. The bars brought it back into proportion a little.

[scott_araujo]

Yeah, you nailed it on the profile, still looks like a Monster tank   I think it looks a little big, and it is, but that's partly because it's almost the only visual element to the bike right now.  Once you get paint onto the bike and wheels, run lines, seat upholstery, fenders, etc. it will probably still look big but the proportions will be better and the overall lines will flow more.

awesome work.  I do agre that coffins would look better.

+1 to coffin masters.  When the rear fender gets built, it'll balance out the bike a bit more, but I gotta say:

LOOKIN' make the beast with two backsIN' AWESOME man!

or the 999 cyls, as it will maintain a clean profile

Wow...that is very nice. 

[Pasta Bobber]

Not a whole lot more. wrapped the pipes, finished the seat, mounted the headlight.  I almost ground off the stock headlight mounting tabs on the top triple just clean it up a little, glad I didn't. they were the perfect spot to mount the new headlight bracket, countersunk the screws and all. It came out pretty good, you can barely see it. The headlight won't stay chrome. It will either get the scotch brite treatment, or be black, we'll see. Merry Christmas everybody!! [moto]
