Default G'day from Down Under

Hi all,

First post and though I'd introduce myself. My name is Waz from Oz, got on board with Harley's in 2010 when I bought myself an Iron. After countless mods and thoroughly enjoying thrashing around on it, thought I would go for something a little older and with a bit of character so picked up a 98 Lowrider. She's been stripped back to nothing and completeley rebuilt, just finishing off some wiring issues and wheel spacing issues and will be back on the road.

Looking forward to chatting to all, I'm a white collar with very minimal mechanical experience so my Sporty was a great introduction to swinging a spanner and working on the Dyna has been just as good!

Here's a pic of my Sporty and the Dyna prior to be pulled apart!



Cheers

Waz
