Everything

the guy who does my tattoos and is the bass player in my band has finally decided to build a bike after MANY years of being without one!!!
He's basically building from the ground up...he has a tombstone tailight and some handlebars...that's it!!!!

if you have or know of a cheap old frame, buildable motor, tranny, wheels, tins....all that crap...

hit me up...

he's a tattoo artist and a father to a 1yr old girl...so overpriced billet stuff and WCC stamped stuff is OUT ...not that he would buy it anyways!!!

I told him I'd try to keep my eye out for stuff....

thanx

Re: Everything

Kid,

Sometimes tattoo artists (like Richie Pan) can put together a bike by trading art for parts but for the rest of us in this world we're better off getting somekind of complete bike and making it our own in someway.

I have been collecting parts for years for a chopper project and only buy stuff when the price is right. Someday I want to put a bike together that really pleases my eye and stands out in a crowd. I know I would have had the bike done already if I started with something complete. Getting a bike piece by piece is a tough and usually very expensive way to go. I have a ride already so I am in no rush. I wish your buddy luck and if someday I can help him out I'll be glad to.

Mutt

PM me a price por favor....I need to get his ass on here, I reckon....

Mutt, I think he is tattooing for some of the parts already...the major stuff like motor and tranny is what's gonna be a bitch. If I buy stuff fir it, I'll probably trade it for some more work myself...

He has building skills if it comes to it...hell, it might take him a year or 2 to get it going....

I'm on the hunt for him though...

Re: Everything

What sort of thing is he looking for? Metric, HD, English, Japanese?
Knowing what sort of thing might help.
