Wow! Initially I thought "Post in the wrong place, goto Dyna section" but then I realised that this is not a Wide Glide, this is a Sportster!!! Good job!

Is the tank a direct swap?

lol.

Finished (finn-ish-ed)-
1. The state of rest between the last action and a new idea. 2. A brief moment of confusion in which one feels a temporary satisfaction or ease. 3. A term used to describe the mechanical state of a toy in between bursts of excess cash in sufficient quantities to warrant action.





OP: Totally not my style, but totally not my bike. Good job building YOUR dream, enjoy it.
