A Long Time Coming ... GHP Retro Cruiser
« on: October 26, 2011, 05:58 PM »
After waiting over a year last month I finally got my retro GHP cruiser.  Quickly ditched the crappy decals for some repops and built it up to ride.  Bars are pretty Fugly but unique I guess. I do have some hoops to go on it but they needed some worked so slapped the Tuffs on and kinda like how it looks.  Most of the parts are all nice used old stuff I had lying around and managed to find some nice amber wall Comp3's.

Parts List
2011 GHP Cruiser Frame, Forks and Bars and repro pads.
Pro-Neck Stem
Oakley .5's
MX1000 and Tech 3 lever
GT Post and Kashi Aero with SR clamp
Takagi OPC, Used DX's, with a Tioga sealed BB
New Tuffs with Rad Kaps and Tioga Comp 3's
My new daily and might give it a thrash in the OS over winter.

That looks the doggies mate, one sweet rider and for that reason alone I couldnt fault it.
I like a nice cruiser and those bars look and work great.
