Cool bike for sure. You know what?? I have a decent clean 5 hole sissy bar. It is stamped Made in Italy. Is that the right one? I will get you some pics if needed. What I need in trade is a decent sissy bar or two if this one I have is worth more to you. I know you will be fair. I will take any brand sissy bar in trade except re pop stuff. Let me know what you have if this is right.

Thanks dude............i like it alot. I just hate where the seat mounting holes are located, they need to be farther back.
I'm thinking of changing the seat or making 2 new holes further towards the back...............dunno yet. DT

Hey Dave, that is sooooo coool. I really like the RWL tires on that black swing bike. I wouldn't of thought black would of look good on a swing bike but man that is way sharp.
Great job!!! Dan |

The black seat is the one on the bike now...............the one pictured above. Its brand new, black glitter, no tag................nice seat but the holes are too far forward for me (im picky).
I know i have to send you some more pics of the 2 orange swingbikes, i can do it for sure tomorrow afternoon.................i have been busy in the O.R. as of late, i have 2 neck (cervical) fusions tomorrow but i will be done by noon. I promise that i will send them tomorrow Kevin. I can also send some closeup pics of the black glitter seat for you tomorrow. DT

I am sure Dave would like his to be the only one. lol He gave me 100% artistic freedom, he just said make a seat that is black with silver logo to match the swing bike head badge. So that is what I did. The silver part is the actual glitter vinyl. I went with a side ways strip similar to Ross bikes since he used to be a Ross Bike Dude!  |

Sure, the more work the more money, lol
I try to keep them down but time, materials, and effort are all in short supply these days. I like to get a month turn around on stuff like this so i can work it in easier, hard to get to rush jobs anymore.  |
