Well i've had my bike for just about a year now, and i wanted to celebrate it's birthday by saying THANK YOU to this forum and all the great members and chopper charles! given the recent issues with the forum being hacked, i found myself without my T-Dub fix for a few days.... no fun!
Here's a quick rundown of how my bike has evolved since i got it:
i saw this bike when i previously bought a really clean ct90 off the po. i had no idea what it was, besides homely, and neglected. after mentioning it to a friend of mine he told me "oh those are the crazy things with the huge back wheel? those are bad ass!" after checking out the web i arrived at these warm shores....
a year later she emailed me and asked if i was interested in her other bike. i picked it up for $800 with 3400 miles on it. immediately i needed new plastic as the po's son had laid it down trying to "test drive" it, breaking the rear fender. the journey was on.....
in all it's rainbow warrior glory!
despite an appreciation for the vintage color scheme i knew it had to go...
started with white plastic THANKS RADUCCI!
note the safety gear!
homemade quick release seat bolts:
new turn signals and rattle canned the bark busters white, and then
gunna wash that red right outta my seat; got a black seat cover off the bay for $18
and then an xt225 tank. THANKS R80RT! http://tw200forum.com/index.php?/topic/4492-xt225-tank/
there's a new and louder horn on there too.
