      I've got a few more pics of the H-D dragbike I built, which was my first model after a 15 year lay-off from modeling. This model took 3 months to complete. I will try to describe what I did but it's been a while since it's completion and I may forget some things. Easiest I guess is to start front to back. I used the kit lower legs with aluminum tubing tubes. there are springs in them so they do work. Scratched triple trees, clip-ons, numberplate, levers move, steering dampers(2) fuel tanks(2) oil tank, plastic seatbase ( imitation chamois insert) rigid rear, rearsets, shifter and rear brake linkage move, open primary cover (gears made from BIC lighter parts), velocity stack, shut-off tether, Joe Hunt Magneto, black box, fork brace,oil lines, oil filter, oil cooler,fuel petcock, carb linkage and all the decals. Paint is fingernail polish. The last pic should be a shot of the kit bike I started with.

    Beautiful job on the bike. Great mods.
