the front motormounts / plates will not fit due to the angle of the front downtubes..
the center hole did line up perfectly though.. so i used the existing bolt patterns and ditched the top/front one.
just cutting the front of looks like uhm..well.. i just cut off the front....
so i came up with a cross like pattern.. and once i finished the sketch..it looked cool enough so time to get them into real steel!
another part finished for the digger!

knuckster...
sometimes it's just for the looks of it...

the dirty bastard..
since Samuel gave the ok on the QCB forum to go public with his newest build 2 weeks ago, it's time for me to show this sweet quadcam.
i have been following his build and i'll tell you.... there are very very very much sweet details on this bike!
and no aftermarket stuff, all made in Finland by Samuel.
yups.... knobbies are back!
just another sweet machine by the QCB f.

season opening ride hdc utreg.
we had a nice ride yesterday, good weather (very very good) and a nice route.
a lot of riders, so it was a slow pace ride. but hey, it was a ride to celebrate the start of the season not to get fast from a to b..
i still have to edit the film, but here are some pictures.

fender work..oldstyle!
the fender for daddy cool was a shitload of work..
i bought a steel digger fender, but i turned out to be crooked and the wrong size.. but it had the looks i wanted so i cut it apart and ended up completely rebuilding the whole thing..
i guess it was easier to build one from scratch.. but hey! resurrecting an piece of history is allways ups and downs!
off course it was not done.. but the sheetmetal was..
so up with the one thing i truely hate about building.. bondo and filler.. and since i am building a 70's digger.. i needed to do some bondo art to..
saweet! now picture this in white with flakes!
a buddy helped me with the bondo hell.. thanks peet!
