The tank is simply bolted over the frame with no modifications to the original bike. It can easily be converted back to the girls Skylark by removing two screws if you prefer it.

This bike was the winner of the RatRodBikes build-off competition in 2019. If you're interested, there is a complete journal on the build HERE.

I will accept PayPay or Postal Money Order. Buyer pays actual shipping.

Those are great looking fenders, and nice patina paint match on the bike. I really enjoy your work.
