Too many kids and not enough time for me to finish my project bike so my loss is your gain.
I've owned this bike for about 7 or 8 years now and 4 years ago I tore it down to the frame to rebuild as a cafe racer. Over the years I've slowly gotten it closer to being finished but a surprise third kid and other interest has me moving on.
Here's what I've done.
Dime City Seat Loop welded on.
Powder Coated entire frame and other bits
Dime City tracker style seat, never mounted
New rear drum brakes, fronts were freshened up when I bought the bike
Replace front forks with rebuilt forks from a scrambler
Engine has been gone through. Was running solid when I started the tear down.
Starter has been removed, kick start only
Dime City Flat Tracker handle bars
New vintage style grips
All new control cables
Brand new anti-gravity battery (recently bought, still in box).
Ricks Rectifier
Extra long custom brand new wiring harness
New chain
Headers have been heat wrapped
Paint has fresh paint from about 3 months ago
Carbs were rebuilt and completely cleaned
This is just off the top of my head but I have a couple of boxes with all the original parts along with the handful of parts that I haven't installed.
Most of the work has been done by myself and a friend however I'm stuck on fabbing up a compartment under the seat for the battery tray and all the electrical work which is not my specialty and there seem to be a lack of decent shops in Omaha to finish off this project.
I probably have over $5,000 in the bike and I'm looking to get $2,500 for it. DM or email me:

Here's a video I made showing the bike up close.
