Head Design...

I am torn a little. I can't decide now if I want an open head bike or a closed head bike. I like the mechanical look of the open head bikes. And had started in that direction. But at the same time the closed head designs are cleaner and maybe more elegant looking. That is why I have been leaning to the closed head design. There might be less maintenance with a closed head also? Right now I think ether way would be the same amount of work also. Are there any opinions on this? I'll post a couple pictures so you can see what I'm talking about.

Thanks,

~Wes~

Here is an open head bike.

And a closed head bike.

I think I could do a nice job on a closed head bike. Fancy lathe work and all :med:

I've been a little busy today. I remembered a hoop that I didn't use on my sidecar. After a little searching I found it.

I cut out a piece with a thin cut on a hand grinder.

It has some more shaping to be done. I'm going to round the end over a bit and a mount needs to be welded in the center. My seat is coming together nicely!!!

There sure a lot of parts on one of these.

Later,

~Wes~
