Maiden Voyage of #2 chop!

Got to spend time with Raven yesterday and Jin in Va. Jim's here for a week...
Raven and I got the #2 chop all together enough for it's 1st run. This thing NEVER ran so good.
Had an S&S super E shorty on it.... coughed, sputtered, popped and never idled... at all.
Put a performance CV on it with the adapter for ironhead and shovels. Now??? don't even need to hit the throttle.. just hit the start button and it purrs...
and responsive as heck.
It wasnt without it's moments tho, we were trying to lift the rear on a lil pipe pry bike lift thingy I have, and I slipped and fell ass first dead center in the oildrain pan I had just drained the black oil out of it a day earlier. Raven and JiminVa laffed at me.. grrrrrr. lol Wife made me throw the jeans out and my ass itches.
anyways, got a cool remote master made, to get rid of the boxy crap on the bars.
here it is.

And here it is witht he tank mounted, looks natural
