Jdogg's scratch built Frijole anything goes 2016 OldMiniBikes build off entry

Just like everyone said before.. WOW!! I can't believe the work you are putting in your bike:thumbsup: You might need juice brakes and not cables to stop that bad boy Jason!! And thanks again for the forks to you and Harleys Papa, they are on the bike! I have an extra pair of suspended forks with a caliper that would work great on a DB 30 if you or him could use them.

Wow.
Another Mini Maestro!
Very impressive build.
Sick garage organisation.
I need a garage ,but it wouldn't be that organized for long...

Looking forward to seeing the painted finished bike though it already screams "sweet"!

Thank you Tink!! And I cant wait to see some color on it too!!

All I can say is that's one He!! of a build ..:thumbsup: .the attention to details is just awesome Jason. I love the disc brake set up on the jack shaft ! Nice job my friend .

Thanks so much Eric!!

Jason it looks great :thumbsup: I think the welding on the caliper mount is fine, those would have been some tight bends :doah: Oh, I wish my welds looked half as good as yours :thumbsup:

Thanks Randy!! I need a new lens in my welding helmet.....I cant see what im doing! :facepalm:

Damn Jason that some clean looking metal work there , welds look good to . Is with Randy I like the welded look of the brake mount verses the bent look . Bike is really coming together.

Thank you David!! I hate to admit it but that little bracket took waaaaay to long to make!! :laugh:

So creative.
We gonna need different classes of builders pretty soon.
You and several others have a huge edge over us rookie looking folks.
Beautiful work Jason.

Thank you Tom!!

Cut out a new gasket for the engine's side cover:

Welded a bracket onto a split collar for the exhaust support:

Got the kickstand mount welded on....had to make a new one 2"s longer with these tall tires:

Heated up the end of my forks at a friends shop and pounded the ends flatter and welded and rounded:

Made a brace for the disk brake mount that doubles as a chain gaurd:

Chains lined up real well...quite happy about that!!

Gusseted the front....was worried I would have wished I had done it and couldnt add it after powder coat:

Here she is...a few things to drill and double check the frame over for welding spatter and off to powder today or tomorrow!! Yay!! :biggrin:

Got the rest of my parts painted! My friend had some left over paint called Chevy "Greystone" .....looked exactly like the gun metal grey I was looking for!! Did the tank in a gloss and the rims in a flat clear! I have some more pin striping to do and a few more things to finish up but I'm reeeeeeeeal close!! :thumbsup:

Hard to tell in certain light that the inner wheel is painted! Left the outer rim alone
