He has been pretty vague on the timeline. He said he is at the mercy of other people. He said the biggest hold up will probably be the oil tank. He has copper handle bars in stock, but he has to wait for the oil tank and when it arrives, he has to send it out to be copper plated. Also, he is waiting for Kyle to send the Shade Tree fender and sissy bar, but that should probably be any day now. The last thing that was outsourced was the custom leather on the seat and tank bib. The powdercoating, pin striping and painting are all done on the premises.

If you had been following, you would know that I was in an accident and insurance is covering most of the cost of this.

Nice loaner, but don't fall for it too hard.

You want to be sure you're happy to get your own bike back - not sad to see the loaner go.

I was wrong here. I let it go at the red lights today, and it just SOUNDS like it's going to stall, but it never does.
