1936 Excelsior Motorbike Build

-
Next step...the tank. This entire project was inspired by this beautiful tank. I swapped some parts around on my existing bikes, sourced other parts, bought donor bikes, etc. All to dial this Motorbike in. Literally pillaged all my best parts for this build...I think it was worth it. Still have to dial it in...tank straps are too shiny, Morrow hubs give me trouble and the bike ghost pedals so need to deal with that and the drop stand has been "altered" (see huge rivets) in a way that doesn't correctly articulate with the rear fender clip--pushes the rear fender out way to far that will eventually spit the fender. I'll need to find another drop stand for flat braces...hit me up if you have one.

Without further adieu...the nearly completed 1936 Excelsior Motorbike:

I'd call that one a "Home Run"!!!
 
Added the delta gangway and repop button switch…just for show.
