I like this, very cool!!!

Thanks, Cruz. I need to do something on the left side where the horn would normally be located. It just looks bare. Maybe I need to look at the instructions? These bikes are fun to build. I have 5 or 6 of them waiting. My mind is telling me to try a drilled, curved up tube but it looks like I'd have to stretch the bottom of the frame and extend the front a bit.

Another excellent chopper build Jim. Cleanly built,very well detailed,paintwork is tops. The chrome accent strip on the sides of the tank is cool feature.

Thanks Randy, Thomas, Jeff & Luke. I'm telling you, these bikes kits are fun. The chrome accent is derived from using a round file to cut a groove and then a cutoff wheel to make a cut in the groove and then gluing a strip of Evergreen. After painting & polishing, the strip was covered with BMF.
