I saw this Bike posted onto Facebook yesterday with a comment about expectations and what turns up if you buy from wish.
I'm assuming this is a website that does not send exactly what is posted on the picture.
And to give credit the picture was posted by Riley A Schillaci.
So I liked the look of the body section of the Bike and it got me twisting.
This is what I came up with, the body top section is possibly a little too long
and the front forks need to be a little longer................possibly?
Not keen on where the kick stand is either at the moment.
Moved the kick stand, the front forks do need to be longer as the petrol tank is lower
than the seat and I'm sure on a bike this is not correct.
Looking at the picture again the front wheel also looks on the small side as well.
I added a front mud guard and made the front forks a little longer.
A few people have mentioned running a workshop on the Motor Bike. So I thought I'd better see
if I can re create it. I changed a couple of things in the construction and it still needs
working on to make sure I'm happy with how it all sits together.
I was looking to make the petrol tank higher where it joins the handle bars, so we have
been tweaking the design a little and trying some variations on a theme.
I keep slightly changing the style and then made from 350's.
Just working out the proportions for the workshop tomorrow.
I do have 2 spaces left if you'd like to join us,

Some Bikes from last nights workshop that I made.
Last few.
I did another Motor Bike workshop today so thought I'd post these two that I made.
I was looking for the original picture that inspired me to make the Bike as I wanted to mention the person.
So while looking I found these Motor Bikes that I posted onto Facebook back in Sept 2020.
I had completely forgotten about them,
I was assuming the original picture got me making the angled petrol tank.
