I just ran the tall tc bros. They had the tallest diy kit i could find. Workin on a taller custom one though. Just needed something to set it all up

Great lines. Reminds me of an old frisco type build. Reminiscent of the Billy bike as well from ER.

A minor touch but I have always liked the look of dust boots on tubes. Sissy bar is awesome

Keep us in the know!

Forgive me if this is somewhere else in the forum, but what measurement did you use to cut the backbone? Lowbrows video says 9/16, but the instructions say 1-1.5 inches. I started at 1.5 and have grind and cut down to 15/16 and still doesn't seem to want to slide in.

I cant find the email. What year you got? Mine slide in fine, then had to clamp the lower rails and get them in and then sent it home with a dead blow hammer. Then the engine tightened it all up.

im bored so ill throw up some updates. bike has been through some changes since last post.

lowered the front forks 2” for a lower stance. full tear down of the bike for paint. mounted a mid tunnel tank. had a heavy discount coupon to lowbrow and got some cheap pipes. gonna weld up some of my own eventually. ran my front brake lone internally in the handlebars. might think of some other stuff i changed. ill post it up.

starting on my shovel build now but slowly making fine changes to the sporty at the same time. next up is shaving the fork lowers of fender tabs and making a custom sissy bar.
