Oh yes, Daddy like!
« on: November 05, 2012, 03:32:21 PM »
From the always Awesome Bubble Visor, http://bubblevisor.blogspot.com/, Note the sweet Russ Collins barrels.



Which leads me to a question;
Was the CR oil tank full width across the frame? I always thought it was smaller, i.e. half width. But. if you press CTRL + enough to zoom in, The red bike looks like it has a full width tank.

Thanks!

Thanks Sam!

Those Bartel/Meadspeed tanks do look nice, but with the exchange rate, they come out at about the same price as this guy, who doesn't offer the oil tanks;

They are not a "correct" CR tank though, just CR style. I believe I shall start the long wait for the Bartel.
