I ended buying this bike off of craigslist about halfway threw last sumer, as normal, it had its share of problems, like the rings had snapped from somebody trying to get the engine unstuck, not a huge deal, i just replaced that plug alot. lol. Fast forward to this winter, i was going to pull the engine out and rebuild it, well i did that no problems. Then i got to looking at the frame, i sandblasted it, and painted it, etc. WEll i get a call from my friend who just bought the same bike, and his frame had been de-tabbed and hacked in the back. Well we traded frames, and i cut the whole back off, from the hoop back, extended the swing arm 5 inches, tacked in some down tubes and came up with this.
