I’m a old school hard ass type of guy myself so chances are this bike will be something that most people hate and that works for me. The thing is I will listen to my own judgement 9/10 times over yours but you guys are impartial and honest, as long as it’s respectful, and you can’t buy that. Thanks again. Larry was hard as nails and lived without fear,we all can hope to be so lucky. Loving the feed back “good or bad”, the way they did it years ago is the guide line not the rule.

Nice simple wide tire frame was a good start, don't ruin it with that funky seat. ( the door was open) You did weld a plate between the two frame halves didn't you. So Believe it or not , Ole skool does not mean those guys thirty years ago had any good ideas. In fact some of their ideas were pure crap. There is a way to get a classic look without making all the classic mistakes. (I'll let you know when I figured it out) And I'd swap out for a round rear fender or cut that one down considerably. But who asked me. (Well you did) and lastly , don't stand up on the seat without a helmet while driving down the road. Thats how Larry kicked. (dumbass) You’re right dude, I don’t care….but seriously

Awesome start. Keep the pics coming during your build. If your really lookin fer feedback "good or bad", I don't like the seat, but then I have not gotten as far as you have so far. Take it as you wish. Keep Choppin ;>) I like it Adam, Fat tire short wheelbase. Awesome start. Keep the pics coming during your build.

The trick with that is sprocket spacing on the rear. I’ll be using a jackshaft should be machining it shortly after Christmas. The trick with that is sprocket spacing on the rear.
