Architecture

I love old architecture. When I was in San Antonio I did the mission tour and it really is awe inspiring. I can't imagine how hard the work was without modern machinery back then. This really looks like it belongs in Rome or something. Beautiful.

Wils bike

I recently made and installed a set of my "retro" bars on Wil's 2003 Fatboy the other day. I cleaned up the controls and eliminated a lot of the wiring. I put a 6 speed in it a couple years ago and now he pumped the motor up to 103 inches. Yeah, it's fast.



Sissy!

I made this sissy bar a while ago for a buddy. It tied in with the 60's emblems on the tank and the ribbed headlight.


Hell Yeah!

MMMMM...nitromethane. Steering with the front wheel off the ground.  If you have ever been next to one of these things, you know how absolutely VIOLENT they are. They will literally make your eyes water just sitting there. Seriously. I've ridden some pretty fast shit in my life, but never one of these. I hope I get the chance before I'm dead.

Daaaamn!

This is my buddy and polisher, Jim's, Vega. It makes aver 900hp at the rear wheels.


Choppin'

Choppin' the top on the rod. It's turning out pretty well so far. Hopefully it will be done by tomorrow and then it's more interior fab work.


Forever dog

This is how it should be. If you can't give a dog the attention and love he/she deserves, then don't get one.

Speechless

I have always dreamt of racing here, but my skill level and wallet would never allow it. These racers are by far THE most talented and ballsy riders on the planet.

Shop truck

Finally getting some work done on the shop truck. I took the grill and bumper off several months ago to edge it in for paint and upgrade the grill, lights, and smooth the bumper for paint. Finally got it on yesterday. Now it's on to the remaining body work and paint. It will finally look as good as it runs. I'm also getting ready to swap the rear end for some 3.73 gears and a custom air bag set up that will work great for towing or daily driving.

Flamin'

Just finished flaming a set of bags for a client that I painted the rest of the bike a few years ago. He asked for "lots of flames". Did I succeed?


Fo' Sale

Selling my panhead project. No time, and I could use the cash to finish some other stuff. $6500 for everything. Hit me up if you're interested.



Casting

Just finished another batch of oil caps. Got 'em in raw, polished, black or brass.


New Goodies

In the never ending quest to develop new and useful products, I came up with this...an oil filter mount for Ironhead Sportsters that doesn't suck. I designed these almost a year ago, but finally got them in production. They bolt to the lower front of the frame using the motor mount bolts. Simple, clean and very effective. This should help lower engine temps a smidge too.



New Ride

Well, it's not "new" actually. I've had it for a month or so. I'm just slowly working the bugs out of it and giving it some much needed love. Pulled 30 or so feet of unneeded wiring out of it today. Eventually, I'll rewire the whole truck from front to back. I tossed the sexy red plaid seats and put the original bench back in it today. Much nicer ride and easier to drive. Watch for updates.


Craftsmanship

Got my drive shaft yesterday from Dennis at D&R Drive line. This thing is gorgeous. One more step closer to getting the rod going. It's a process.
