    1972 Ironhead chopper build

    Got a lead on a Sportster and just couldn't walk away from it. The previous owner did the hardtail, so that's one problem sorted. Other than that it's a pretty half assed job, thrown together from shit that was just laying around. Plan is to do a simple club style(ish) build. Gonna mainly use parts from my Softail that is being rebuilt - seat, handlebar, fender.

    Here's a quick mock up with the fender

    Got a bunch of parts ordered, the whole front end is gonna get shaved and polished, possibly gonna change out the neck as well.
    Most likely gonna strip the whole frame and give it a proper paint job, right now it's 50 shades of black.

    Got the new headlight in from TCBros

        "a simple club style(ish) build". Which club? Looks a little large for a Shriners Club build and the boys at the tennis club ride gsxr's. But for real, sharp looking bike man.
