Nice pictures! I really like the headlight and the shot of a spoiler on a roof rack is priceless

thanks!

the headlamp is my grandpas old from 1940s... lamp was in his bicycle which was in war during 1941-44... it's priceless!

I used roof rack, Thule ProRide 591 http://www.thule.com/Thule/ProductPage____44277.aspx, when I bought my Spoiler. I drove about 350 km and got lot's of

Good rack, no need to take wheels off or anything... and whole system looks cool! and bike stayed on roof even in 130 km/h (80mph) speed...

oujee... here are latest modifications...small but efficient...Spoiler needs some lights because its gettin darker and darker before snow cover everything...

I realised that when renaming pics its easier...

i have to adjust wires because chancing the bulbs arent so easy now... if you look closer the skull above light, you´ll see that when its on rightside there is dipped headligh and when its on the left side there is highbeam..

battery is inside frontbag... it was brown but I painted it... and fixed it with cable ties to the lower spring... wire to the lamp goes between forkleg and lower spring..

not yet new pics but I had dull evening today so I treated Spoiler tyres with Turtle Wax Extreme Nano-Tech Bumper & Tyre Shine... Shiny and black... WOW

after this and paint fixin it's almost ready for show....for common people to

and with headlights and bags and skulls...it's unusual.... in my opinion

Workstinx · #7 11-03-2009, 01:01 PM

i'm back... sooner that I expected... some pics here ya are... yeah, headlock installed and tires polished.... maybe tomorrow outdoors and some more pics....

painting rims (hiding small dents) aren't fun to do... candy red is more liquid than water! it's really thin... maybe some paint-pics later...

Dykem sells a red layout die for machinists that is pretty close to the right color for the rims.

Chopperguy · #10 11-06-2009, 07:55 AM

for the rims, paint the scratch WHITE first, then red might work better.

before I used to carry my Spoiler to 6th floor. One day I tried to fit it into the elevator and voilá...

ps. painting succeeded very well... i didnt do any white base painting only candyred... works with me...

Workstinx · #12 11-12-2009, 02:11 PM

some more pics ... just came back from night cruising

Workstinx · #13 11-12-2009, 02:26 PM

and more...

in Paints.jpg you can see paints I used. from left to right: varnish, SatinBlack, CandyRed and skulls with candyred (one layer) and without candyred and back on righthandside youll see Maston Plastic Paint spraybottle for car bumbers etc which I used to paint the front leatherette batterybag from brown to black...

Rim is not ready yet...still good enough for nightcruising

Nice bike. Good work. That is a neat idea you had with the reflector tape.

I'm glad you learned how to use the elevator. I hope there is room for you to ride up with the bike.
