You are lucky you have a Harley! That is how metric guys repair their bikes.

What the heck!!!

whats wrong with that? Looks easier than removing the engine. I dont see us bagger guys doing that....not without a hoist or crane.

Looks like a well organized shop!

Thats way more fun than pulling the motor out.

Looks like a pretty smart idea to me.

To come up with that , i bet he knows exactly what he is doing.
Also bet theres some real cool stuff in that shop(mines just like it)
and theres some real old stuff in it

I don't see anything wrong with doing it that way !!!

check out the old jalopy in the back ground cool
good thing he's starting on the bike first he will have some parts left over for the old rat rod LOL

As a metric bike owner for many, many years, I can say that you don't have to "repair" metric bikes very often.
