ADVENTURE TEAM

As you might be able to tell, these motorcycles started out as New Ray, Indian motorcycles. The seats were removed and new seats made from Sculpey. The forks where repositioned several degrees forward. Front fenders removed. Rear fenders bobbed, tanks customized, lights repositioned and oval tubing bought and cut to extend the forks on the yellow chopper.
Really a pretty easy customizing job. You need a small Phillips screw driver, Dremel Tool, aluminum, oval tubing, a little paint and some material to cover your seats with and maybe a little hot melt glue. I'm an old timer and liked the styles of custom bikes from the 60's and 70's. I'm thinking about getting another bike and doing another chopper like the one from Easy Rider (Peter Fonda's bike) Red, white and blue. I'll let one of you guys do a scale custom of a Jesse James motorcycle. I'm just not that crafty. Special thanks to Big Duke Six, Kaber, MarkV and Sgt. Rock on this little project. - Checkmate King 2 |
| Wow! Awesome work again Seabee. I knew you'd let me vicariously fufil my 1/6th scale Biker Gang dreams :) You've come up with two BAD looking bikes! Very inspiring stuff here all the way around. Special thanks for sending these in and sharing them with us buddy. Keep up the great work! -- GL |
