Throwing gimcracks & geegaws at a basically stock bike does not a 'build' make...if you have any doubts about that, ask a real builder...no offense, but I could see my way to call this a 'project'...

YOU........are an idiot. LOL. I remember now why its been awhile. There would be FEW that could be considered a BUILD by your definition. While I manufactured very little on the bike, certain parts on the bike are one off by me. That, by definition, constitutes a build. I will in the future, however, submit my posts to you for proofreading prior to posting.

Waiting on the rear fender to come in. Then to paint. Still working on the scheme. Seriously considered doing a larger front wheel than the 21 but I think I have all but talked myself out of it.

Here.... or ANYWHERE for that matter. Being qualified as an idiot has nothing to do with what you may, or may not, have built. And I seriously doubt, by definition, you ever BUILT a bike. Unless of course you fabricated every item. You would be considered an ASSEMBLER.

A bit touchy, are we? Built em from the ground up, pard... and I don't give one red rip what you think...doesn't look like you took that sucker apart to the frame, would be no reason to. I redid my current from a wreck, but it wasn't a build, certainly a project, but a build, nah... anyway, your project does look nice, not too gaudy but certainly a one off...

Touchy over whether or not its a build...NO. It never ceases to amaze me though, that an individual, such as yourself, can nitpick a statement based on the use of a word. Didnt your mother ever tell you that if you didnt have something nice to say, dont say anything at all!!!
