I like the direction you're taking that X-53! Did you make that tank yourself, or was it something you modified to fit the bike?

It’s something made. But it is still going to get chopped up a bit more. Needs to be slimmed down.

This one was posted awhile back but I just saw a post from @Superman1984 on another thread that had a pic of a cool old bike done this way. I showed that pic to my son and 3 hours later this came out of the garage.
It is very cool looking, moreso than before I think. All it needs now is a headlight over the stem.
I rode it down to the park for these picks and wow is it squirrely with the stem behind the head and the long wheel base. I can see that it needs getting used to. It rides like a swing bike.
It also gathered a crowd at the park and a couple offers.... whooda thunk it.

Turned out Nice & yeah I imagine on a springer setup it does get squirrely but could you imagine a bent springer
Glad you, your son like it & I wish I could humbly take credit but it wasn't my idea or pic. 'Tis 1 of those Schwinns I love sooo Much
When I do the Huffy cantilever lowrider this will be 1 planned idea for it as well
