Moving on..

To anyone who may have been following or checking in on this blog, one, thank you and two I'm moving. I'll be concentrating on the Throwbacksmc blog. It's a conglomeration of myself and the crew I ride with. If you feel daring, check it out. That one should be updated far more often and way more interesting. Thanks again, hope to see you on the road.
Some random photos of my bike taken by others. Most of these are from the GV Roll in. So if you took any of these please stand-up, and thank you.





A cool photo taken by Sarah of Sarah D. Photography. She's very talented. Check her work out at www.sarahdphotography.com.

Site glass, mock up pipes.

Got the site glass welded in and some pipes mocked up. I'll get the sissybar finished and mounted, all tabs welded and shaped. Hoping to try a first start within a couple of weeks

Closer still

Sissybar tacked up, hope to get it into the shop (work) this weekend to TIG weld the tabs to the frame and then finish weld and mold the fender mounts. Gonna work on pipe designs this weekend as well.

There's light at the end of the tunnel.......

Sissy bar fabbed up, went pretty easy. Found some cool mounts that I used from Fastenal. Also, I can stop now, got the rear brake mount done and just need to fine tune the brakes but it's close, so close. Next up fab up some pipes, and work out the wiring and the final pieces. i.e. clutch cable, throttle cable and new chain and sprokets.

A little bit more.

Foot pegs worked out. Tank tunneled and mounted, rear fender cut and mounted down low. Working on a sissy bar and upper mounts. The sissy bar is super simple, but seems to fit the bike.

Progress, progress...











Got quite a bit done this weekend. Fabbed up mounts for the footpegs, got the tank bottom hammer formed and got the rear fender figured out. Needs to be finalized and mounted but getting really, really close.
