Lists…

Onto another list!  For this one, it’ll be a list of things I know I need for the bike.  Although I’ll try to get as much in here as I can I’m sure I’ll miss some things so I’ll try to add those if I can remember later.

  • Frame
  • Engine
    • Engine, carbs/efi, ignition
  • Transmission
  • Chain drive (Washington choppers sells a sprocket/rear brake combo, need to look into this)
  • Front and rear rims
  • Front and rear tires
  • Double front disc brakes
  • Handlebars
  • Battery
  • Ignition and key
  • Handlebar grips and throttle sleeve
  • Hand controls
  • Foot controls
  • Floorboards
  • Highway bars
  • Fuel tank (Washington choppers sells a “Fat bob” tank that can have an imbedded speedo, need to remember this)
  • Hoses
  • Front forks and tree
  • Instruments

Well… so far that list doesn’t look too long, but the ultimate question is going to be…. how much will it cost.  I think the most expensive parts will be the frame, engine, transmission, and then the brakes.

Looking at this list, the major hurdles in my way currently are getting/making the frame, and doing a ton of research to make sure all of the parts will fit together.

Off to sleepy land
