Some bikes from my past...

Here are a few of my old garage creations...

My old shovel. I miss that one a LOT. It was my first HD. I traded a prostreet 65 chevelle for it & remodeled it 2 or 3 times. Getting married & having kids helped that one go away.

Heres the last Sporty I built... First round was a hardtail. I rode it 1 mile before I tore it apart. I rode it with the hardtail & the stock 883 for one summer then tore it apart again...

Fatboy wheel. I made the pipes, first set I ever made. I made the forward controls, seat, pipes, frame, spraybomb paint, handlebars, crotch rocket mod to the tank, pretty much everything. Lunatic made those pegs for me & Mr Wild made the risers. I love one off stuff...

Very very nice! The last few years I am really taking a shine to the tall bikes! Very pretty and clean!
