I've been kicking this one around for a while now . It started off as the Crusader kit , and about the only part that hasn't been cut is the bottom skates of the frame . I shot the paint a bit early just to see how it would look , going with purple pearl and chrome flames . Just a dry fit for now . It was a real gripe to get the back tire to fit right , brass wire does wonders . Now the real fun is rigging up the drive to look right .Comments are welcome , Thanks for looking , Toad .

Man Carl this bike is sick…ok I like to know more about it. I love to look so far, good color choice. What are you doing with the wheels, they look like something Billy Lane would do. I’d like to see that. Keep us posted, looking forward to the next set of photos.

HOLY SCHNIKIES! Duder, that is a radical look. Does this actually exist in real life or an idea of yours?

Kudos, brother!

About the hubless wheels: I think Golani (sp. ) has been toying with the idea in some of his designs.

On the bike: slick ride dude

Nice work Carl i really like the hubless wheels a good original idea not something i have seen on a model before, i will be looking for your future updates.

Very cool project. The paintjob look awesome. Purple pearl, which brand is it?

Is this your own design or is it modeled after a real deal one?

Very cool design in general. I sure wouldn't want to ride it though, you're folding your rider in half with the bars so low.

Thanks for the comments !! This bike is a mix build , the frame is kind of my take on a Jessie James bike . The double hubless is from Mike Brown the main builder from Amen motorcycles . The paint is Createx pearlized - its called Purple Plum . I might have to re-work the bars to make it more rider friendly . These Revell chopper kits are a lot of fun to kick around , I have 9 of them as of now . Ya'll be good - later onToad .

Oh yea - I can totally see a Jessie James inspiration in the long low streatched out stance.

nice job - can't wait to see it done.
