Well heres another "boardtrack" type bike that I just finished a few days ago. I started out just wanting to build a pretty simple motored bike, but after making up a few sketches, it turned out to be a bit of a motorcycle! Basics are: rear triangle off an old roadmaster bike, the rest of the frame is entirely handmade. Lifan 150cc, 5 speed. Got it up to about 50, but it has plenty more, plus one more gear! Built the tank and battery box from 16g sheet metal, solid! Fabbed the headset, bolt heads all linkages, rear brake, brackets, seat mounts, pedestals, sprocket started life as a quarter inch chunk of plate. Fenders are bought and wheels are worksman cycle with 11g spokes and front drum, excellent wheels! I still need to paint the wheels and mount the horn, but its good for now. Took it a motorcycle show its first time out and won best bike of the night. This is my first motored bike/motorctcle build ever and was all done with very common tools, by me in my single car garage. I painted and striped the thing in my driveway, but it turned out pretty good! From sketch to completion was exactly 9 weeks. I have a ton more pictures but I'll just post these for now. Enjoy!
