I'm new to the RRR board but have built several motorcycles. Prior to motorcycles I was a Sprint Car Racer for 14 years, 11 of that as a driver. I like to build with the Harley Davidson crate Evo engine. It's about 2600 bucks new and they run well with a few mods. Here is a couple of pics. of my last build. The fuel tank I built on an english wheel and planishing hammer, it's .080 aluminum. The rest of everything I fabricated myself. The rear fender is a trailer fender with sides welded in and the front fender I pulled from a dumpster at a HD dealer, it some type of wide glide fender that I hammered back into shape and designed and welded sides into as well. Anyway until my son and I get this truck project going it's what I have to cruise. I ride it to the car cruise night and many car guys spend time looking, something I wasn't expecting. Nice crowd to meet and talk to compared to the Road King/'doo rag crowd at bike night.

That's good - Don't get offended then. He's talking about 99% of the other d-bags out there with
"custom" bolt-on accesory Harleys...


I think he was talking about the OCC and SOA want-to-bes.Thanks to those two shows I have been making money off the want-to-bes.

Flying rat Great looking bike. real nice work.
 
I'm old enough now that I don't take anything personal anymore. Even if it's aimed directly at me. I just take any excuse to show my stuff...[ddev
