My motor build
she is back together... not bad... under 6 weeks for a ground up harley build... sucks because 5 weeks the bike was just sitting therre waiting on the motor work to be done... but now she is done! It is mind blowing how much faster a build goes when you have 2 people twisting wreches on it, thank you so much Chad!
sorry about the crap pics but it was late!
even hooked back up some of the LEDS
Still have some odds and ends to tie up, front fender, some more LEDs need wired, fog light, new bars, HID headlight install, front stearing damper install.. yadda yadda yadda... but all that can wait till she comes back from the tuner! SUPER stoked up for this one

Great photos Joe ... thanks for posting ... maybe give some folks the courage to start in with their work ....
Just noticed a difference between the '05-earlier and the '06-later bikes ... the battery orientation ... the earlier bikes have the terminals beneath the frame, whereas the later bikes have the terminals 'outboard' ....guess that's why you really couldn't go without a battery cover on the later models ....
