It's getting colder and time to think about winter projects! What do y'all have planned to keep you busy during the winter months? I just got a set of thunderstorm heads for my sporty trike. I rebuilt the top end not too long ago with the hammer 1250 kit but it still has the stock 883 heads that had a diy port job, stock cams and a thunderheader. It runs good but ya know I can't leave shit alone! So I'm gonna put those heads on and I'm thinking some hammer impact cams. I also have some taller bars to put on and the paint is peeling on my swingarm so that's gonna come off and get powder coated. I have some other small pieces I'm gonna bead blast and powder here at home. I have a dna rearend with the dana diff in it on my trike and they don't have reverse so I'm engineering a reverse system that I hope to have finished by spring. Let's here about your projects.

I'm just gonna continue with my autumn project.. It's a 1988 Sporty that was completely butchered by the PO.
Had to throw some new jugs on her and went for a S&S 1200 conversion.
Been wanting to do a stock-ish Sportster with some subtle mods and longer front end for a long time.
Was hunting a rear mag for a looooong time and finally scored one at a swap meet in August.
It still needs a rewire, new tires, plumbing for the oil cooler and I need to move the tank back because the Wide Glide trees are hitting it.
That's what I plan to do this winter. Paint was on the list, but meh, I dunno.
