I personally like what I did with mine... There's pics in my sig in the photobucket link. Some people don't like the blue but I do. I think what you have planned will look pretty sweet. Post up some pics of all the work you do. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Welcome to BHQ !! I'm just starting to put an 87 back together. Nothing too fancy for sure , but it will look nice. Quote
Jayy Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Welcome to the HQ! After a lot of work I am happy with how both of mine look, but different people in different areas do different kinds of riding and like different things. Anyway, here are mine. Quote

Well, the blue one has a stock banshee stem with an adapter that I think adds either 3/4 inch or 1 inch to the height. The Red one has what basically amounts to a + one inch stem. from a Honda 250R and no adapter or risers with a standard 7/8 inch Renthal bar, but I do not know the bend. If I were guessing I would say a CR low bend. Quote
theshee Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Here are a couple of my fav bikes ive done. Not a huge fan of the orange frame, will soon be changed, but I like the paint layout of this one my bro and I did. another bike my bro and I built/ painted. One of my favorite ones we built from the ground up. Ive got countless other bikes we have done too if you are interested to see more like these. Quote
