Default Oops.. I did it again....

Hey everybody,
I finally finished the winter mods. I want to say thanks to all of you who posted advice and opinions as I was getting everything completed. I always feel that all comments can have a value, even the smart *** ones. Many of the parts are one off customs: sissy bar, pulley, leather seat design, paint. Since my last pic post I have added the AME 9 degree rake kit with 4' over tubes. Also a custom pulley, floating rotors and the Apollo profile rear wheel 40 spoke from HD Wheels. Also the lower belt guard and the front fender are gone to help complete the "old school" Harley chopper look. My design ideas came from a cross of old Peter Fonda classic bike movies and the art work of David Mann. I also added the Woods TW 400G cam to my 103 build. My last dyno was 103.85Hp and 108.68 Tq. I have been nominated for bike of the month in April. I am very honored to be in such great company. Well again, thanks to all and ride free.
