[QUOTE="TheGarBrah, post: 194159, member: 14636"] Hello Everyone allow me to introduce my latest project affectionately named the "Rude Boy" . The color is prismatic powder Rootbeer Brown , with matte black powdercoating on the wheels. The hardware and rear shocks are original and have been polished by hand . The bike has been sitting in storage for 6 months and is not quite clean but this has been a frame up rebuild and has had all hardware and frame + engine sandblasted. Will be getting a new seat cover for the bike and probably new foam as well, and also brand new cables and handlebar grips. I'll be throwing on an aftermarket head light (maybe LED ? ) along with decals. New switch, wiring , battery and coil are all going into the bike. Currently I thought I was having issues with the coil not getting a good enough ground from the frame, but after shaving down the contact area and still not getting spark and putting another running engine on this frame to verify, it seems the original engine is having issues either with the points or something with the stator coil. I had semi taken over another thread asking about questions so I decided it was appropriate to start my own build thread . [/QUOTE]
