Reply #15 - 06/25/08 at 11:15:24 Looks like the Sparto 'Inspired' tailight that many including JIREH sell, painted to match. It's a kool looking light assembly...however the one I had in spite of the actual casting being alloy used plastic for the mounting screw attach and that didn't hold up to vibration or being kicked as well as one would think it should have.

Yes,it is a "Sparto"It has 3 bolts.Two that go through the lite,and one from underneath.,the turn signals are from V-Twin pt #33-0629 for single filament bulbs.I'm going probably Friday to Northern Tool to pick up a fender.I will let you know the pt # for sure.
The purple bike is gone,so I don't have anymore pics.But have no fear the new '87 build is starting.

Reply #18 - 06/27/08 at 19:53:02 It looks like #1264 and #1267 would work as well. Do you see any reason why they wouldn't? Thanks for the tip, I have been looking around at this for quite awhile.

Reply #20 - 06/28/08 at 12:50:39 A couple of the part #'s are 7" wide but they are too small in diameter they are for an 8" tire .The 1264 is 9" wide,too wide for our tire,That's what I have on my Harley with a 200 tire.

Okay, here´s mine. I quess Demin has already seen it on another site.
I did the rear fender by myself. I had a problem finding a fender that fits perfectly with the tire so I decided to do it. The seat is La Pera solo seat. I painted it matt black. It´s gonna have black apehangers, headlight from an old Citroen car http://farm1.static.flickr.com/127/318858250_cef603c921.jpg?v=0 and i´m planning to paint the wheels red. I also wanna change the tank but I haven´t found a bobber-like tank that would fit in it.

I started today on the fender,but it's tooooo hot in the garage.Thermometer said 112.But it was closed up all day too.I did also find a place for round bar,I think.I didn't get a chance to call though.
I think I'm going whitewalls on this build,just can't get a color to jump out at me,I want to do another 'Flake job.The frame is getting painted this time around,it's pretty nicked up.
strangeling,your's will probably done before mine.(The fender,and the bike. Grin

Hey I appreciate you helping out again Demin I pretty stoked about getting this thing done.

I'm gonna go whitewalls as well once these tires wear out, they do look bad@ss !

I'm also probably gonna do the header pipe in exhaust wrap.
