But the fun is building this bike piece by piece. My neighbor and I are already talking about building a light, strong wheel set. He says he has a tricked out head set that would work too. (He just has to find it). And Chaadster, I don't mind the headset. It's very little effort to overhaul the head set once it needs it (I can't see it needing it too often as this set up worked fine back in the day). I enjoy tinkering so this give me one more thing to tinker with. I do plan on using this machine as a grocery getter, commuter, and light touring. Mostly though it will be ridden for fun. Multiple people have done double takes when they see me go by, and most people wave, which I think is cool. Smallwheeler, be cool man. I'm happy with my ride. Even though you might gasp in shock after learning how much time and money that I dump into this machine. I ride Harley's too and I'm constantly tinkering and spending money on them. But that is fun to me. That's what I work for. I love the idea of such a cheap bike that you can have fun modifying. Just my two cents.
