Lucky Lucy

Got this bike for dirt cheap from a dude off craigslist who didn't want it anymore because he had a baby coming. Has 15,000 on it. Starts every time. I decided to have some fun with her (Lucky Lucy)! Put on clip ons, individual pod filters and new rear suspension to lower the ride. Took the stock seat, grab bar, rear taillights and licence plate holder. Got 2 bullet lights that mount on the points where the seat was mounted. Had to create some new wires to run to the inside of the lights to complete the circuit because the tail lights had 3 connections per side and the lights I got only had two. So the red wire that runs to the lights is a new wire that I had laying around that I soldered to the old wire to lengthen it and then electrical tapped to the outside of the light bulb to complete circuit.

After taking the grab bar off there was a gap to fill between rear suspension and the end of the cap nut so I put 2 bushings from a longboard (red) for a filler, worked out perfectly. Licence plate mount is some part that I took off at some point in time and I bent to 90 degrees. The screw and nut are off of a longboard as well. The seat is just 22 gauge metal that I made. Went to Home Depot and bought the sheet metal and cut it to dimensions and hammered it into place and curved around the edges of the frame with a ball peen hammer. I then painted it with black enamel paint and before it could dry went on a little ride to give it a worn look, worked out great. The seat now has a little rust on it and some of the paint is flaking off. Even with the metal seat its still an enjoyable ride, just have to be more careful about bumps and shit.
