Nice job! I've stripped my Ultra all the way down to frame engine and tranny before also. It's a lot of work but sure makes you feel good when its all back together fixed up right.

well i guess here's the closing of this thread. i got rid of the bike last weekend. had an opportunity and seized it. put a few grand back into the "toy" fund and picked up a quick project. just a little 03 super glide that i'm knocking the ugly off of and will sell as well.

looking to get another road king after this. i think i'm going to try an evo build this time. just depends on what i find when the time comes.

thanks for following and the compliments. it was a fun project and really turned out well

Hell. Wish I knew you were going to flip it this soon. I'd have been damn interested. Congrats and good luck. Again, great work.
