Awesome bike I do appreciate your build and it is inspiring. Thanks for sharing it with us.

I’ve actually been considering changing the bars.

Just one suggestion, replace the drag bars with bars that look more british, like the bars on “this is Emma” (search it, you’ll see what I mean)

I like all the little touches like the front fender, mufflers, even the Harley tool box. I have one I plan in using on my build. Great looking ride, enjoy!

The rigid rear end means that you will feel the bumps, but it is not too bad, given the sprung seat.

My grand father would of loved to have seen her since he personally rode these types of ole school machines back in the day, though his machine had fish tails and the ole style centre stand that rolled over the rear wheel. Take care of her and she should be around for another 50 years.
