Thumbs up Sportster Project Pic's

Cutting my Sporty in half. Building a '60s digger style, building a single loop hardtail frame to hold her steady. Gonna run 2 front heads, 4 5/8 stroker crank. Dual magneto's, 2 plug heads, and a secret set of cams. She's gonna be a giant killer, or at least a tire smoker.

That's some cool shit Smitty! It's new to me. I always thought about cutting the tranny off, but never heard of, or seen one.
Single loop digger huh, cool.
Keep the pics coming!
