[mickeymousebiker1]

Makes me wish I didn't have to sell my Pan/Shovel. I built it in 1977. The best bike I ever built. Ride safe.

[FranF750]

Nice bike, alot effort and energy there.

[ewachrome]

@FranF750 Thanks Brother. I'm starting a new build. Just got a 200 rigid frame. I'll post pictures of the build as I go. Take it easy.

[ebruceii]

Lots of attention to detail in this build. Well done.

[ewachrome]

@ebruceii Thanks brother. I tried to make it look clean but show all the cool stuff. Appreciate the comment.

[ebruceii]

@ewachrome - No problemo. And props to the 808 state. Love it down there!

[justentime77]

Awesome job!

[ewachrome]

@justentime77 Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. Looking for another frame. Gonna start another bike build soon.

[justentime77]

@ewachrome What frame did you use on this bike?

[ewachrome]

@justentime77 Frame came from Ultima. I got it through a shop in St. Louis Missouri. Can't get this same frame anymore but there is one with same specs from Ultima. Check out Jireh Cycles. You can find it there. P.S it's a softtail frame with a 200 rear tire.

nice job man



[ewachrome]

@rotorhead58d Thanks brother. I appreciate the comment. Still ride this everyday!

[swampthing31]

Nice bike!



[swampthing31]

Nice bike! strange place for the oil tank, but still, NICE!

[ewachrome]

@swampthing31 Thanks dude.  I got the idea for the oil tank from a guy in California. Besides looking cool, It makes getting to the starter and top of tranny really easy

[steelmillmann]

tank is bitchin

[ewachrome]

@steelmillmann Thanks. I like big metalflake. Thought it came out good too. My buddy Hanibal is a great painter. Gotta give him all the props for that.

[teyacapan]

freeking sweeeet! hey bro what tires are you running?

[ewachrome]

@teyacapan Metzler, 200-18 in the back, 21 in the front. Gotta have spokes!

[ANTRLEO]

The pin striping on the gas tank looks like two angels facing each other.

[ewachrome]

@ANTRLEO Hey yah... it does after a few cold Pacifico's! Thanks for checking out my bike...

[RayyyH]

Wow this is amazing. I didn't even realize it was a softail till the second time I watched this. What kind of frame is that? Is there any up or out stretch? looks like 30 degree rake or so. I wanna build one!

[craftergirl110]

@RayyyH Thanks for the feedback. Most people don't notice that it's a softail. Good catch. I cut down a fender to make it hug the back tire and built a fender strut out of some flat steel bar that I picked up at a hardware store. The frame is from Ultima. Don't think they make it anymore. 2 inch stretch in backbone and 2 inch stretch in the down tubes.  The rake is 32 degrees. I think the springer front end pivot arms make the front wheel look kicked out a bit more than it is. Later.

[mithigarcha1]

thats one cool bobber!!!! bro, what motor and primary is that???

love the look...cheers

[ewachrome]

@mithigarcha1 Thanks. The motor is an 80 inch Harley Evo. Nothing special. new cam, roller rockers, S&S super E and a Stampede ignition. The jugs were rattle can sprayed with PJ1 wrinkle finish paint. I like the look of that finish. I've been running this bike since October 2010 and the wrinkle finish has held up perfectly. Good stuff for rattle can. The primary is a BDL 3 1/2 inch open belt drive. Tranny is an Ultima 5 speed. I rattle canned the case on that too. Take it easy.

[DAVIE1488]

good looking bike brother.

[ewachrome]

@DAVIE1488 Thanks for the comment. I saw your bike video. Like the shout out to all of your Socal bros. Diggin your bike. Really nice build. I would be stoked too!

[zeeadkar]

awsome ! only the handle bars :-/ but i like it

[ewachrome]

@zeeadkar Thanks for the feedback. I don't know... I really like these handle bars. Besides, I needed handle bars that looked cool, stayed kind of narrow and most of all, cleared the tank when I turned the front end from stop to stop. Take it easy.

[echarme]

excellent machine, great job, congratulations from Caracas, Venezuela

[ewachrome]

@echarme Thanks echarme. Appreciate the feedback.
