Hello all, I am getting to many projects but another one just came up. I have around 5 months to complete another one. I had one of the City Council members call me today and asked about my BSR! He had heard I was building one! I live in a small country town! He wanted to know if I could build one around a Rodeo Theme! I thought for a minute and came up with one and wanted to run it by you to get coments on it. I thought about what they had at rodeos and the only thing I could come up with was Barrels! So I am going to build a Barrel Racer!! LOL:laughing: What do you think of that idea and do you have any ideas I might like to here?

On the front end you can put some horns, maybe even a "bull head" made out of metal.

And of course, use a "rodeo style seat".... instead of the regular circular one

well those are just some ideas :D

Thanks I was thinking of making the handle bars out of horns! LOL and on the rear I was going to put the exhaust coming out right under the tail I was going to put on it! The poop shoot! LOLOLOL:rofl: I was thinking of turning the barrel long ways and just puting a saddle on it! LOL!!

LOL

I also tought of the tail and exhaust, but I said: lmao that´s for a city council member, maybe everyone will know he only shoots poo lololol

Maybe one of those speakers that make animal sounds under the stool would rock lol.... Maybe you can link it to the poop, and poop an moo at the same time ROFL.....

This BSR won't be used inside a rodeo arena will it? If so they are very rough terrain. I think you'll need to rethink frame size for stability, tires, clearance, etc. If not, have a ball!!

I am going to raise the frame up on it for clearance and run dirt kart tires. Thats a nice show barrel stool. I think I will turn the barrel on its side and see what happens. I will posts pics this after noon.:smash:

Hey Moto, With all these Z Bars that is being used , I found a good use for that wheel barrel full of scrap metal....I started a new Racer today and I have been gathering parts for a while. It is going to be a John Deere Stool for my buddy that works at the local J.D. Dealer. He gave me a steering wheel off of a 1948 Model B..."I think" any how I talked him in to using handle bars...I showed him those Z bars and he said CooooooL. I will post some pic's after I grind them up a bit. How is that barrel racer coming ? I am going to an estate sale Saturday...I am still looking for a Western saddle for you!!!:cheers: Snakester

Hello Snakester, They turned out pretty good using the 1" square tubing and 7/8" tubing for the ends! It was not hard at all to do! The Barrel racer is coming along great! Just waiting on a engine ,Clutch and a saddle some one was going to get me for it! LOL:laughing: I am building a BSR for my dad also for christmas and will propably be working on it until my engine and clutch comes in! i have the frame done on it with the rear axle installed and front spindles on.When I started building these I thought I would just build one but darn if they didnt multiply!! LOL:laughing: I am building 3 of the Z-bars now to go along with 3 BSR's being built! I feel like I have gone into full production of these Cool personalized, crowd gathering, riding machines! LOL:rofl: Let me know if you find a saddle at the estate sale and post some pics of your Z Bars!:cheers:
