Hey guys,
Ive been lurking here long enough without a post.
This is my project that I've had kicking around for a few years.
I bought it when I was 16, it was a hard-tail rat-bike that was sitting in someones garage for years. I got it running and rode it for the remainder of that year. Over that winter i cleaned it up with a complete tear-down; frame-paint, new seat, fenders, apes, and paint.
I then proceeded to ride it for the next summer like that and decided that fall to cut it up again as I knew the old hard-tail wasn't exactly safe for riding... (7/8" tubing pieced together) and thats when it kinda sat until last fall disassembled.
But recently i got the itch and got it finished enough to ride
- so as of this moment
Voodoo vintage MK25 hardtail, Blue metallic powdercoat
Rebuilt engine, new rings & honed bores
monster craftsman mids
clipons
frisco mount sporty tank, white with some diy snakeskin hydrodip
pma/pamco/capacitor.


Ive put about 1000 miles on it as of now with no major hiccups and have plans for much more but I had to get back on a bike this season so i got her going and can now ride happy once again.
