Nice bike, when I first saw pics of it that you posted I said to myself that it looks exactly like an Indian Larry bike. He just wouldn't have put the big 107" in it.
I love springer front ends and I like the simpler looking bike like that, don't care for the bikes with all the extra sheetmetal so you know I don't care for Arlen Ness stuff (I do respect the work of bikes I don't care for but I don't mind saying I don't like something lol). Maybe I'm a whimp but I got to have a softail so more power to ya for having a rigid.
Now since you have a bike that's probably pretty light and a big 107" I'm sure it can haul ***, don't hustle a guy just cause you're a 1 handed girl on a bike so you could take advantage lol.

I love the bike; springer at the front and upswept fishtails at the back - life is good!

Oh I knew it wasn't an Indian Larry bike, was just saying the style looks just like what he would have built.

Congrats on a sweet looking ride. As an orthopedic tech/EMT person, I can really admire that you didn't let what happen rob you of the passion or love for what you do. That is nothing short of total inspiration. I agree, the name says it. A few bucks can't compensate for the loss of an arm. I hope you were right handed to begin with!!! Post some pics when you get out on the maiden voyage!!! Good job...

Very simple and very clean. Have you given any thought to doing a thread on the control set up. We have a VA out here with many vets in similar situation. Be kinda nice to show them that it is possible to carry on with something you enjoy.
