Great morning to ride in. I don't get the chance to ride in much

 

Bet it gets a ton'o oooh's and aaah's along the way there

 

latest version





broke three spokes on the rear wheel, and didn't want to repair it or buy another spoke wheel since I'm still trying for a 230 rear, so I got a fatboy rear wheel to get back on the road 'til I'm really able to start the conversion.


also took the front fender off 'til I can get a rear back on. I thought it looked lopsided with the big classic front and nothing on the back. I talked to a few people and found out I didn't have to take the spacers out of the fender. that I could just get spacers to take up the lenth of the axle without it. that works for me 'cause I mean to put the fender back (or at least some form of it) eventually.





I actually like the no fender look, but it's not the final plan, plus no front is even worse than no rear. the front tire seems to find water on a completely dry street to spit at me.


got it back on the road though, even if it's very much a fair weather bike for now.

 

Just picked this up in Houston.

More to follow.

 

Nice bike English Adam! Tell us more.

 

Looking good !

 

Not that much to tell really.

My location says England (where I am from) but I spend the majority of my time in Houston which is where I work.

I had an Electra Glide over in the UK but rarely rode it as I was hardly there so I sold that and got the Springer in Houston.

It's a 2003 Anniversary model with a carb, Hooker exhaust and 40k on the clock.

Eventually, I will export it back to the UK and it will match the F150 I have there.

 

Awesome looking Bones!!! Is that a 18 inch rear?

 

jsbridgew,
can you tell me what can of front end is that?
