Replacing Sidecar Loops

I've had the crap frame for 3-4 years. Someone took a drop seat pan frame and hard tailed it using the back half of an early rigid pan frame. Why they didn't just use the rigid pan frame to begin with is anyones guess?? So it was straight enough but the front motor mount holes were hogged out to nearly 1/2 in to get the motor to bolt down and the front cradle was rounded tubing (swing arm style) instead of rigid straight or wishbone legs. My buddy Kevin had a set of straight leg loops in a  rusty pile of frame bits so I bought em from him. I needed a new front motor mount as well. I was going to get one from VCP but ended up finding a better deal elsewhere. Tossed the frame up in Charlie's frame jig. Bolted a set of cases into the rear mounts and got to cuttin' up Everything went pretty smooth and it really wasn't the hassle I thought it would be. In the end, I've got a pretty accurate looking straight leg frame which is perfectly plum and ready for finishing. Here's a little pic of the front legs. I still haven't finished filling but that shouldn't be more than 1 or 2 sittings. If you have a hard tailed shovelhead frame, I would highly recommend a front loop swap. The rigid look is a little closer to accurate and the cost was minimal. bike2 Dig it.

the Stranger - Jan/2016

Found this pic from 2 years ago of the frame Charlie made for our showclass peoples champ thing. We didn't make it past the second round which was a bummer but the work we had accomplished in the process was in my opinion, well on it's way to greatness. Swingarm frame which was narrowed in the rear, then wishboned up front with an original bull neck on top. Add round swingarm and go. skinnyframe

Rigs of Dad.

This was my old, old, old whip from 2011. I remember this wasn't "the in style" when I built this thing so it just seemed to get overlooked a lot of the time but she was a blast to build and a dream/nightmare to ride. So many times thins thing managed to get me home and every time I kissed the ground that I wasn't in a body bag. Party forever, Ebony Queen.

Down in the Basement

My workshop is down in a basement with a small street level garage entrance/exit. No windows so you can never exactly tell what time it is. A lot like a casino. I've got my tools and my records and my bikes and daydreams all secretly stashed down there. It's probably one of my favorite places on earth. I typically don't like to show off my personal space but I took this shot the other night of my most recent mock up. I dig it. blah blah. panhead

MIDESOTAS - IN STOCK AND READY TO ROCK!

Hey! I remember this blog thing. It's weird but useful in it's own strange way. FINALLY! I made about a dozen all finished in chrome. Order while supplies last. Also check out our Kung-fu Kicker if you need a cheap and easy shift option to run with the mids. These work great with your stock forward brake set up so that ones kind of a no-brainer. Thanks! Also check out me and my homies on Instagram.

Iowa is for Lovers

Me jamming alongside Erik somewhere near Cassville into Iowa and Illinois. My 62 ran like a champ all weekend. 800 miles later and she never missed a beat. Erik always gets a good riding shot. Plus I'm fucking gorgeous so that always helps. Fat Guy Bikes RULE img_6636

Davenport 2016

Davenport was a blast this past year. I rode down with Erik and Eric and Lacky and Joe and we all had a lot of laughs. Lots of amazing bikes to see and rusty gold to buy. Here's a pic of one of my favorite bikes sitting in front of the Olson's spot. 62/63ish DuoGlide in pussy pink. So completely perfect. img_6582

CHOMPER FOR SALE

Built it last winter. Painted it about 2 months ago. Rode is 2500 miles across Oregon, California, Washington and the rest of the pacific north west. Now it's for sale. I can't keep em all and I have some other things I'd like to do next so have a look and contact me if you're interested. 1980 Harley Shovelhead with a 96" stroker motor. Motor was built last year complete with balance sheet and receipts for proof. Harley cases and heads but the wheels are T&O and the pistons/rods are S&S. Brand new Joe Hunt magneto. Super E carb. It's in a 70's swingarm frame with a 39mm front end and disc brake. The bike is a monster and it's titled in my name. If you want a harley that can run all day and will hang in there for years, this is the one. Bike is located in Minnesota. Ride it home. I'm asking $6800 or I'd trade for a very very complete Panhead project. Many thanks -   Check me and my friends out on instagram @speed_club img_6337 img_6385 img_6333 fullsizerender-8
