Indian board track racer tribute.




I built this a couple years ago from an old Schwinn 10spd.  My original plan was to make the tank out of metal.  The cone shapes on the end were keeping me from finishing it.  I got the idea a few nights ago to 3D print a tank!  I had to print it in several sections because of the limited size of my printer which is 8x8x10.  What you see in the pictures is the tank still in several pieces and raw plastic.  I plan to epoxy some strong magnets inside the sections and then glue them all together.  The magnets will hold it onto the bike.
The orignal post on this bike.  My latest creation.

1922 Harley Davidson.



Very cool bike for sale on Ebay right now.  They are just calling it a racer.  Like my build it has a trans so it can't be a proper boardtrack bike.  Merkel style fork is a cool addition.  Odd paint color.

Boardtrack style.

1927 Harley Davidson board track racer replica.




 Built around a Chinese 2-stroke engine using 26" bicycle wheels.  One of the nicest I have seen.  He really captured the proportions of the original.  This bike is currently for sale on Ebay.


Photos of the original.  There is also a die-cast available of this bike.

Vekst boardtracker.

A really nice boardtrack tribute.  What makes this even more amazing is that it was built in his apartment using a few Harbor Freight tools!  Well done.  View more here and here.
