Not to beat a dead horse. But Harley is a manufacturer. They aren't expected to make "radical" motorcycles. I would expect a little different from a custom chop shop. Making the same thing over and over shows a lack of creativity after the first build in my eyes.

Either way, BMX get this **** done and out on the road again!

^^^ i see your point wink however, it's the style that they are into. like junior, every build he does now has a freakin 40" front wheel! just what he's into so that's what he does primarily. picking up my front wheel monday or tuesday, bolting it on and taking a quick rip around the hood to scrub the tires in.

thanks ergo...nothing as extravagant as the build you're doing but this is what I like.

no problem henry.....i've always been into their bikes since i brought mine home in 08. never thought i'd ever have the ***** to do half the **** to my bike that i have but here i am. i'm truly happy with the bike now and can see me finally settling on a particular style! it took so damn long though, it seems like every other build thread over on chopcult is a freakin crazyorange inspired build but whatever, id rather see more brat style sporty's on the road in the states than stockers. i just love the harley scene over in japan. it's like nowhere else man, at least right now it aint.
