man what a winter of fabrication i have ahead of me!
retro fitting 70s springer seat and and pee pad
retro fitting and dishing 52 pan fat bobs
new headlight is welded up just waiting for a day off to build the bracket
building a custom exhaust
speedo relocation
and maybe if time and cash allow a jockey shift!

 

Dressing warmer, haven't owned a car in almost 4 years.

 

Surviving the winter in this hell hole called Afghanistan, and dreaming about riding my HD!

 

New bars but not sure which ones. Stage 1 air cleaner, XiEd and as much chrome as I can afford!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

just sold my car, so riding it all winter long

 

Hmmmm.....sounds like a good idea for me!!!!

 

I'm totally envious...

Currently my bike is 1/2 way put back together from doing a S&S 106" motor using the stock barrels, fully worked heads with big valves and auto decompression releases, Woods TW9B cams, SE 50mm throttle body, S&S tear drop air cleaner and a Thunderheader. Can't wait for that thing to run!

I already installed some Ricor 13.5" shocks. Doing the 49mm Intiminators, black fork legs and powdercoating the trees next.

I kinda wish I skipped the motor work and just did full Ohlins front and rear... Cost would have been about the same.

 

this winter i plan on re-painting the tins, power-coating the rims, final drive sprocket, replace the final drive belt, brakepads/disks/fluid, and powdercoat a few engine and transmission cases. unfortunately some of these things will have to wait til spring. i had to double up on payments for the winter so i can get this thing paid off quicker.

 

Im hoping to get a set of LA Chopper nice curves from santa to change up the look and feel of the old dyna.....if work stays steady through the holidays, im shoppin a new 2-1 exhaust too.
