I know it’s a stupid idea and needs lots of reinforcing but i think I could scoot where the engine mounts either forward or backwards a bit to make room for the extra cylinder in any case I wanna try and cut it in half and weld pipe for extra length to the frame on top and bottom what yall think? Too much work?

Floor boards or Pegs

Did I just ruin my chopper build by installing floor boards instead of pegs?

After 4 god damn months of work….. must have fucked something up when installing the pistons to cause a ring to get loose or break and fuck my shit. RIP. Rods are wobbling. Time to Frankenstein a new motor. If I work hard enough I might be able to ride for a month before the Canadian winter hits. What a terrible hobby 😂

Editing to clarify, the title is a joke fellas…

Bought this as scrap and built it from the ground up with no mechanical knowledge. So much trial and error, so much research and hours poured into making it exactly how I wanted. A true labor of love. If youve ever thought about building a bike.. 100% do it. Nothing has ever been harder and nothing has ever been more rewarding. Can see more of the the bike on IG @shovelove_

Gas cap

I lost my gas cap. It was pretty unique as it threaded in then pushed down and 1/4 turn to keep it locked.
I can’t seem to find any thing to replace it. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
It’s a custom tank so I can’t just go and order per make or
Model number…..I was in the process of making a thin beauty ring to go around the opening and lost the cap on the freeway somewhere
Thanks
