The rat is black!

So after much procrastinating and general fannying around, the bike's (almost) set to go.

Big thanks to Riff raff for actually doing the work.

Yesterday, I chucked the monster sprocket on and lengthened the chain, reassembled all the body work that had been painted and kicked the thing in the guts. Due to Deano and his lovely wife staying for the weekend, I haven't had a chance to practice as I'm nursing a two day long hang over.

But here's the before and after pics.

Mint.

lol @ LB!

Looks good WT, are you still going to ride it on the road? Seems you are as you still have all the legal crapola on it. Oh yeah, nice job on the tank, looks quite tidy!

back wheel is still dirty btw.. should have sprayed that black too..
your plate looks funny to. reckon you'll get pulled for that

Lookin good WT! Any chance of a breakdown of what you had to do/spend to turn it into the "mega stunter"?

**Lazy7** · 19th March 2006, 17:42

how many more teeth up is it on the back?

going to be able to keep the front wheel on the ground?

**Riff Raff** · 19th March 2006, 18:40

53-tooth sprocket. Dunno how much the sprocket was - I'm sure WT will tell you when he's finished in the kitchen.

Paint job I did cost $52 all up - 1 wire brush, 3 cans of matt black spraypaint, 1 can of black engine enamel, 2 panadol for fumes induced headache and 2 plasters for blisters on each index finger.

Hey trashy congrats, looks good. I am sure it will look even better on one wheel. Why did you bash the tank in? for highchairs or standingon?

**SPORK** · 19th March 2006, 20:19

Looks sick, nigga. Truly ghetto.

**texmo** · 19th March 2006, 20:29
