I built this bike during the winter of 2010-11. Had it ready for the spring and rode it all summer. Turned out to be a very comfortable and reliable ride. Inspired many years ago by a Dave Mann poster, My big thing was no levers or cables on the bars. So the hand clutch became a foot clutch,the front brake master was mounted vertically on the shifter, and the cable runs through the bars. check out the sight glass. Lots of backyard fabricating. Yes thats real rust. Enjoy the pics
