Almost makes me embarrassed to admit that I own a wrench. Beautiful work, sir.


thanks. I'm starting to get a handle on this fabrication stuff but its like anything; the more you know, the more you know you don't know. Considering i had to build and tear down this engine 4 times I would label myself a hack mechanically.

Thanks Eric. I havent ridden it yet. still a little bit of wiring to do.

Taking these photos might be putting the cart before the horse as I haven't gotten the bike running yet, but I had reserved this gallery space to take photos of this bike and a bunch of other large scale work so it went down. This week is gonna be insane for me, I got a big commission coming in so the project bikes are gonna live in the house for a little bit as my garage is gonna be full. I may not get to start it up for the first time till next week. So close i can smell the burnt hydrocarbons. enjoy the gratuitous photos.
