Crazy Clown

 


 



 

After many, many many months, I have finaly rebuilt my Zephyr 1100.  NOT to everyones tastes, but I think she looks just fine!!!

I run a lil' buisness called Crazy Clown Customs & this is the second creation built under that banner.  The first being my mate Daves GS550 hardtail chop which eneded up on the front cover of June's 100% Biker.

This is a daily commuter/pleasure machine so there is nothin' fancy & practicality had to remain.  Should run real well with that stonkin' 1100 motor.......   Certainly sounds good (well, i think she does)

The seat is a bit of an experiment!  it is more comfy than it appears, honest
It is covered in high density foam which is an advancement on my original plan of a treadplate seat (too cold in the winter & perhaps a little too hard).  Besides, I am 6' 2" so them bars are not so big to me.  That's the beauty of building yer own bike, you can make it fit! Saying that, I may pay to get it covered at a later date.  Give it a bit of shape & a LITTLE extra padding if needed.  Seat covering is outside of my remit i am afraid!

As for the donor bike, it was a good runner in fair condition.  Some signs of neglect by an over enthuisiastic owner lacking in either skill and/or the ability to find a good mechanic (i.e. the exhausts!).  

Like I said, not everyones cuppa, but I am into chops in a big way & this is my kinda thing.......

Better than the bling billet barges that cost more than a house & never get used..........
