Panhead that I built.

just got some new pics of this bike from my friend Tigor...he's the one who snapped it.
This is the Panhead that I built for my good friend Desu.
took me about a year to built this bike.
We love the frame so much so we decided to polished it, and from there we found that the old 1948 frame need a lot of work.
but its not everyday we work on a complete Panhead.
so after hundreds hours of welding, grinding, polishing, dremmeling etc...
we got a bottle neck frame that smooth as a baby's butt.
after that we thought, why not we chrome the frame?
even we were sure that its gonna be hard to choose the right color for this bike.


I really like the art deco style on the headlight...I think its an Electroline from the 20's.

The seat is the first color that I have, from there I kept searching for the right color for the gas tank and the fender.
because its got many aluminum color on this bike...I had to mix the paint so its not too over done.
yeah,metal flake with pinstripe just wont go with this bike.
after about twenty something choices...finally I decided champagne thin line and Candy Brandy Burgundy wine.
but it has to go with the leather color.

I modified the Radir hubcap for the gascap.
just to matched the Radir wheels that we use with Firestone tire.

the Engine...
its an Original matching number 1948 Panhead Motor that I rebuilt.
With Morris Magneto and L series Carburetor and CCE finned rocker boxes.
I use the Beehive oil filter for the oil tank and another ribbed oil cooler for the reservoir.
I use sprocket brake for Jakarta's traffic with a help from Duo Glide Master Cylinder.
the foot control...I use the pipe that supposed to be used for Mechanical Drum brake as a mount.
and then I made a pair of vintage style levers for brake and the foot clutch.

More details soon!!

Atenk

just want to post this one....
my friend Irvan with his bike that I built about two years ago.

TZ 750

so I was reading this magazine, and they talked about the TZ 750.
and I was thinking about many people said fast and too fast.
but I prefer fast enough ( but I still admire all ).


in 1975, Yamaha put a TZ 750 engine in their dirt trackers to try and beat Harley's XR 750.
the TZ is a two stroke motor...so its like twice as many firings per revolution as with four stroke motors, so its like a 1500cc motor on a Flat Track!
even too fast for "King Kenny" Roberts that he said his famous quote : " they don't pay me enough to ride that thing".
two months later, AMA banned the bike.
the photo is King Kenny him self, Rode that bike again after almost 35 years.

so, was it faster than Harleys xr 750 ? you bet.
but why xr 750 dominated the two cylinder flat tracks?
I think because they fast enough...
so anything that faster than it will be too dangerous and gets banned.

I don't know shit about two stroke motors, all I know is I love the sound of the big two stroke motors since my friend Andre Jess did a Wheelie with his CR 250 Honda in front of me about 12 years a go.
and off course, they have smoke.

Smokey....and they banned it

one of my favorite thing about my job is to see one of my built on the road.

I built the bike "Drama Queen" for my friend Jose.

didn't get to see this bike for almost a year.
and then last week he just showed up with the bike.

its got interesting details here and there..
check out the aluminum job on the gas tank...

I also like the left side of the bike....
Shit! I don't even have a good photos of this bike.

snapped it with pocket camera, but you can almost see our National Monument at the back ground.
