67Fleetsidedream what is the purpose of anything that is not stock? It's just an expression of ones personality. Is there something "wrong" with that?

I think it is very cool...and a bit retro. Reminds me a lot of a bike I had back around 1970. It had a seat on it just like yours! And a drag slick rear tire.....I never could get it to do a burnout though...wrong gears maybe...LOL!

Nice bike!

67cst · 10-24-2003, 06:49 PM

joe, how much do you want for the forks? got any pics? is it a springer or just a twisted fork?

n2trux well said, these bikes are a good way to express yourself..just like old trucks i guess

SLS · 10-24-2003, 07:03 PM

Here's my new Harley....wife drug it home from a yard sale. Maybe I should chop and flame this bad boy.

SLS has attached these 2 'Hog' pics:

67cst,
I got a couple of pic for you, hopefully they will go through. One is of my bike. Sorry it did not come out that good. My little nephew decided he wanted to come out on it so I took a pic with him in it. Also there is another pic of the forks and steering wheel. The forks like mine that are bent but w/straight bars go for around $30+ or more. Ones like mine go for a little more. But I could let them go for around $25 bones plus shipping. Get back at me if you are interested. Thanks.
Joe

anthony_1269 · 10-27-2003, 11:25 AM

Here is a pic of the forks. Sorry came out a little blurry, my nephew saw me taking pic again and wanted to be in it again so he pushed me a little while I was taking the pic. Let me know...

My bike has been a blast to build. My brother has been a big help for me too, taking my products to get chrome and gold plated. Taking trips to the car shows all around Texas. My dad also has been leading me on to interesting stuff. It has been fun, and still is a fun hobby to mess with every once in a while. Between my bike and my truck, I always seem to put my attention to them when I feel down, alone, depressed or just stressed from school, or just from my girlfriend. I don't think I am ever going to get tired of it. Theres just too much fun involved in it...

Joe

67cst · 10-27-2003, 04:22 PM

thats a cool bike joe, just got your pm, i pm'ed you back, thanks for the pics also

67cst · 10-27-2003, 08:24 PM
