downtube headlight

eto yun original plan but i replace it to be sure it wont hit the front fender pag may malalaking lubak lalo na dto sa pinas.

made a polish stainless bracket.

i just bought this new slim headlamp.

now it won't hit the fender.

it can easily relocate to normal position but without headlight upfront looks way cooler.

200 engine mounted

also used my custom nut for the can cover.

old school stop tail light installed.

tested several combinations this 428 sprocket with 14-t front 38-t rear and o-ring chain is the best combination available locally.

also mounted the hand shifter.

right side view of the engine with my custom kick pedal.

some bolts & spacers

centered chain roller with longer bolts and copper spacers.

yes it suppose to be at the bottom but the purpose of this roller is to prevent the chain from slapping the faux oil can.

one size longer grade8 bolts on the front engine mount.

 drilled the holes one size bigger and put a rubber washers in between.

longer bolts and spacers for foot control.

installed with two copper spacers on each side.

little longer and stronger = more comfort.

bought this allen master brake bolt from a local shop.

installed, nice little detail.

went to the chromer

just got my little chromed parts.

test fit my custom rear fender nuts.

instead of a sissy bar i will use this newly made custom nuts to match my favorite kick pedal & shift knob.

downtube mounted headlight.

here's my lowered seat.

horizontal mounted risers

since i mounted the risers upfront, so decided to use this bars with a little nice pullback for a better riding position.







freshly baked

just got my newly baked bronze frame.

tig welded a headlight bracket.

3inch springs to lower the seat and my custom made leather cover.

custom polished stainless bracket to mount my risers horizontal.

test fit.

with risers mounted.

prep my bronze 200

yes! na try ko mag hanap ng larger displacement engine locally but failed, found one that rusted and a lot of missing parts and the other still in  running condition but also rusted and too tall, it's not worth to modify the frame to accomodate it, so i still ended up with this brand new stock 200cc, by the way all the components on the bike are brand new. 

bars sanded down gonna spray it with high temp flat black to match the engine.

 
sorting out several hardknock parts with some local and my custom parts. 

plan to powder coat the frame and front fender with bronze.

re-welded the brake tabs and re-drilled the front motor mounts.
on my way to chromer and powder coating, seeya

plastic bobber

here's another lower cost bobber i found, not a kit it's a production bike with a pretty nice hardtail goose neck frame, single seat spring and 21inch front / 18inch rear wheels.
but i guess to keep the price lower it has some plastic parts, will be a lot better with a polished stainless or aluminum and powder coated or chromed alloy steel.
when it comes to production bikes the wirings and cables on the bar's too cluttered need some cleaning and the gas tank looks way off for the bike's style a small peanut or mustang gas tank will be a blast. i hope it will be available here (manila) someday.
