My New Ride! Pics bitches Pics
 

Nope, it's not turbo. In fact, there's no engine on this ride, and it only has two wheels.

Here's what a pair of weekends, a conduit bender and a welder yields...

The Handlebars are just there to aid in moving it around. I'm fabbing some new ones this weekend and hope to have it rideable by Saturday.

Overall it's 12 feet long! Not much for handling, but it should turn a few heads. My roomate's isn't far behind so we'll have a small crew as we build more of these. It's not done, there will be few more braces, custom plasma cut gussets and cooler wheels with a custom laser cut 8" front disc brake. It should look pretty sweet painted with some huge apehangers and a custom seat built in...

Let me know what you think. This is my first one and I'm going to refine my style this summer as I build a few more...

i have a honda gx160 im putting in a bycycle:) hope you can ride that thing around

Re: My New Ride!!
 

No need, the handlebars will stretch way back so I'll be sitting up straight while riding. The bottom bracket is in the perfect position for me (6' 1") to pedal comfortably. I used to sell bikes, so I'm no dumbshit on what's required to make the bike fit someone. I'll post a pic of me on it when I finish, then you'll see...
