Default Custom ideas

Looking for ideas.

I sold my ultra glide and am looking for ideas on what me and my grandson (12 yo) can build this winter. Somewhere in the beginner to medium skill set, something that would be fun. Mostly body, handlebars, paint and everything outside the engine.

I'd love to hear some ideas from your experience.

Thanks,

Tom and Brayden.

Default Sportster

You can go so many different routes with a sportster, parts are always available and they are relatively cheap

and it could be your grandsons first bike when he’s 16.
