Nice start to a resto mod -- It is kinda like what I did to my K1 - Black and chrome is my style

Very nice. Is that a 12v? I want to keep the original key and graft it into the original harness. Is that what you did?

#2 on that! Nice hardtail! Like the flame paint on the tank.

That's what I did Dave. It's pretty easy. Or just make your wiring harness. I can help you with that if you like. Nice to still have the key ignition.

I just finished this '71.

I'm diggin both the skipinout and RS hardtails here. I like how the skipinout one combines some custom touches with a stock pipe and handlebars; it's a subtle custom in a way and super clean. The RS one has those neat engine-turned pieces like the top triple and the chain guard, which are to me sort of like nods to the custom touches you'd have seen on old lakes-type hot rods once upon a time.

What's that bike used for, with the number plates?

47 is our race number, we put it on all our machines. My son races MX and I road race a 911. The meaning of 47 to us is my sons initials are AK so he’s AK-47, I started racing at age 47.

Thanks

Oh, I see; I'd wondered if you raced the hardtail in some sort of vintage mini roadracing or something. I don't know that there is such a thing, but if there isn't, there should be.

where are the pics of the build progressing?

Been in Phoenix working. Won't be able to work on it for another week or so.

The Razzo RatRod is one of my favorite minis ever, and the reason I kept my hardtail.
