Salzy, Thanks! Actually, it can kinda suck - I find myself making too much stuff!
Sorry, it's not for sale. I have way too much time wrapped up into it.
I'd "almost think about making a few more now that I have a prototype - but the wife has me tied up in the kitchen.
Not Figuratively! Remodeling! Once I'm done with the tile, paint, woodwork, and making a copper hood for the stove. I might have some time? Sometime in 2012.....

Your list sounds just as long as mine...Thankfully my wife gives me the summers off though.

scorpion07- although I don't have your metal fab skills I do have other useful abilities that my wife has no problem utilizing whenever she feels the need. although being tied up in the kitchen may not be a bad thing depending on what she has in mind. when you get the urge to fab another one or need a test pilot, let me know......

While certainly no where near the 'cool factor' as Scorpion's EZ-Brake achieves what alot of riders desire.

Give it some time, you'll get used to it. Besides I can assure you that 99' Ultra is going to give more serious things to be concerned with. All kinds of bugs to work out on that first year Twin Cam. :-) Hey let us know when Jesus answers your question!

Well Bullocks, Guess they went cheap on us, my 87 is splined. Is it just a slip fit on the shaft and a roll pin, or dowell?
