Pee-Wee's Big Adventure Bike

Hey guys, I know it's been a while, but I have been out of the loop for the last month due to a concussion. Not able to do a lot at the moment, but I have been able to make some progress on my bike (albeit slowly), & just wanted to share it with you all.









Once I'm back to 100%, I'll be starting on the hard stuff (fabrication/mold-making). Hoping I should be back to my old self within a month, & once I'm better I'll be going into 5th gear.
 
Got my tiger siren in today and it's incredible!! Thank you Kansas Jack! I also received my Rocket Ray light from bicyclebones.com. Working on the foam for the saddlebags. I'll post pics later. All I need now are the signal stat lights and the rings around them! It's a good day!
 
Ok, here is my latest mockup. The skirts will be redone as they are incorrect. This weekend I plan on going beastmode and getting most of the fab done (wish me luck). The side bags will be solid foam and inoperable. I still need the latches and the signal stats. Mockup.jpg
 
Hey progun, I've Ben following this site for a while, slowly stocking up on parts, like U I'm ready to start fabricating parts, I've read through this thread to many times to count, I have yet to figure out what color white most are using, what color ru u using? And is ur frame a pre or post war, I'm using a per war so the fork pivot point is behind the long axis of the fork tube, ur bike appears to have a later fork with the pivot point like the movie bike, Do u know if my pre war fenders will still fit on the type of springer fork set up ur using? Ur bikes looking awesome, once I figure out how to post pics ill show unwhere I'm at, thanks
 
Hey guys, long time since I last posted. Havent done much in the last 6 months. I'm stuck at the saddlebags, I have zero skill in fabricating these. I had considered getting them routed out from a 3D model. Found a company that does that, but not sure if its cost effective. Still have a bit more to do.

Hi everybody, longtime follower, first time poster, I'm building a replica too, and have amassed most of the parts, I was wondering if anyone had a line on a good set of skirt guards and a 4" mirror, also I need a battery door for the small style tiger siren , any help would be greatly appreciated, also for you guys that are saddle bag and console impaired check out Ebay, item # 121228715819, looks pretty cool to me, I'll post some pics when I have something photo worthy.
 
I am making a lot of progress and hope to be assembling by mid-week. I still need signal stat lights and I am having a hard time finding the saddlebag latches. Anyone have extras? All of my red is done and now it's mostly detail work. I'll post pics soon.. Thanks

Oh, and the rings that go around the taillights too...
 
Hi Progun , I don't have any extras, but I got my latches from Reid supply item #HG-83323, I don't know if they're exactly like pee wee's but they look very close to me and they look good on the bags, and they're stainless steel!, and they a few different styles too, as far as the tail light rings look up slingrings.com and get the 2-1/2" I.D. aluminum rings, Abe posted on them awhile back.
 
Hey progun, I may have extra stat lights, I bought them on ebay, the two red are nos, the amber is aged ,I just picked up a set of saddle bags on eBay , if they look good I won't b needing them, I'll let u know when I get the bags in
 
You are all doing some amazing work here! This bike along with the mini Short Circuit 2 robot have always been my ultimate dream props. From building my Han in Carbonite I know how time consuming the research and how much work it takes to build certain props like this and I just wanted to say kudos. I'll be following along for sure. Might have to be my next big build!
