build thread, motorcycle content. THE TRACKER

[sgt d]

What about something like this? It's a teardrop so it's a little more shallow.

I love the clutch idea. Will the cable be internal?

see i am looking for something thin like that but i want very little contour on the rear of the light and i want it round. not sure how we are going to route the cable but i would like it to be as clean as possible, i believe the design for the clutch set may be internal though:shrug:gotta research a nit more.

the leaf spring suspension has been done before and supposedly if the spring rate is proper then it makes for a good ride. also the seat will have a smaller leaf spring attached to it so the butt should not suffer either.

OMG I'm in LOVE!!! My buddy is currently building a chopper but it doesn't have lines like that. He's also doing a 250 back tire.I love how low you have it

forgot to add the bike that started all of this. this bike is just waiting for a single part and it will be on the road so hopefully i will be riding it next week and i will get some more shots of it complete.

 

[sgt d]

alright the first bike is done now and i took her for the maiden voyage around the block today. the only thing left for this one is to get the seat made which is going to be nothing special, then i have to title it oh yea and get my endorsement..lol..

couple of shots from today, this is the bar hopper finished minus the seat which i will get knocked out tomorrow. thought i would see how she looked with the aston.

also the first burnout!

Awesome bikes. I love Sportsters, and I love board-trackers.. Combine the two and epper: !!!

 

[sgt d]

they are making for a good combo, both of these bikes are light as hell. the hopper is an 883 that has cams, new carb and a few other goodies. the tracker is just going to stay a stock 1200 which will be more than enough for that tiny tire..lol..

Any way to move the battery under the seat? Other than that I love it.

absolutely but i like the placement personally:shrug:

we got creative today with the rattle can paint scheme, od satin and black satin. tomorrow it will be split with a burnt orange metallic flake pinstripe.

 

[jerrad]

Loving the paint. Did you ever get the seat situation figured out?

Whats the registration process like on a bike that is custom made like this? Does it have to go in for an inspection or is it just registered as "home-made"?

i am not completely sure yet because i have to do it for both. i have the mso and the bill of sale for the engine which will be married together to create the title and vin. i have had conflicting information on the inspection but i believe there will be a need for one, i will let you know but i am sure it varies from state to state.

damn, i thought i had a picture of it. it is in canvas like i had mentioned but we are going to redo however it works for right now so i can ride it.

 

[sgt d]

there has not been a lot of things to update because we are waiting for parts to come in but they did get my idea to metal for the kick stand, i love this.
