Hallo there.
I'm new on this shovelheadforum.
I'm from Holland, Europe and ride an '84 shovel rigid, kick only, jockey shifted with suicide clutch.
I'm riding shovels since 1979.
I've tried to post this thread a few days ago, but somehow it didn't work?
Maybe it works this time.
Hey Panz4ever!
Those forks are dummy's!
They are metal covers and inside is a normal front end.
I guess it has about 2" overstock, don't know for sure.
It's got big aluminum triple trees, custom made.
Makes the bike look a kind of fat/big looking from the front side.
It's a matter of taste ( I don't know if this is correct English..? ) however, but I like it and that is the most important of all, dont you think ,haha!
As I mentioned earlier, this winter it will have an black 16" ape hanger on it.
That will make it look totally different, and I hope I like riding the ape...
Grtz.Rob!
