Interesting use of the pre-Mark 3 rear drum brake/wheel with right side cable-operated brake pedal.
I'd like to see a closer photo of the brake pedal/foot rest.

Beautiful bike!
 
Very nice bike! I really like the tank/seat combination. Corbin seat, I'm sure. Is it an Interstate Corbin seat that fits into the stock shock bolts? Or did you have to modify the seat to get it to fit?

Thanks.
 
Nice work, and lots of interesting touches. Should be a fun ride.

Hi guys !

Thanks !
we modify a lot the mudguard and fixing system to fit the seat ..
The front light is from enfield county India.
 
You probably need to make sure that your hands don't end up further forward than the steering head, when you are holding onto the grips. If you pull the clip-ons back until you have just got clearance from the tank for your thumbs at full lock, you might be much less likely to get a tank slapper. You might also need to reduce the steering lock a bit. Clip-ons should give you more control than raised handle bars, however manouvering the bike while parking it, can be a problem.

With no wheels and slung from the rafters, it looks like the World's Loudest Swing. :wink:
