Relatively new to the forum bought a few parts here and there but don't comment much. FIgured it was finally time to post up some pictures of the bike. Bought it completely stock 9 months to the day(5/16/13) after I got hit on my old fatboy and fell in love with the dyna platform. Wreck put me out of commission for 9 months and probably shouldn't have been back on the bike that early but I just couldn't let it sit in the garage and collect dust. Kept it stock for a year then did an exhaust and air cleaner and then decided to just full out start building it to be a ripper of a HD.
Put a S&S 106 kit, Big Boyz Ported Heads, Andrews 54H cams, upped the compression to 10.6:1 last winter. Bassani exhaust at Sturgis this year and it Lowrider S rear suspension with a bung king riser block. In the process of doing a dual disc set up this fall/winter along with race tech springs and ricor intiminators up front. Ohlins rear shocks will come eventually but the Lowrider S shocks are a nice improvement until I get Ohlins. Just had the front end powder coated and put dual disc legs on while I'm waiting on Bassani to get back to me about a warranty claim for my exhaust.
Heres some pictures of the general progression of my bike!
Cat scan of my leg 6 months after the accident, no healing so thats why recovery took so long total of 4 surgeries and 2 different rods to save the leg and get it to heal.
Stock when I bought it
New air cleaner and pines
106 kit, heads, and cams
New shocks and tank lift
Brand new exhaust.. 4000 miles on it and it did this
Powder coated the front end, replaced single disc fork legs with 14 lowrider legs
Will be finished off with speed merchant caliper brackets and these brembo calipers all powdercoated gloss black.
Not sure, bike developed a tick that progressively got worse so I started tearing into it and found the exhaust. There's a bunch of stress marks and 2 cracks. I think it has to do with the install but not sure. Shop claims it can't be install so now I'm waiting to hear from Bassani
The bike looks great and I really like those bars. Sorry about your accident. Be smart about your rehab/healing.
Legs all healed up now accident was a little over 3 years ago now. Loving these bars internally wired and cables were just long enough for these bars. Looks less out of place with the tank on now.
