made a sissy bar bag out of Carhartt material i had laying around.
draw string thing from army PT shorts i had. bungee strap from leg holster. Nickle for a button. works great.




i think im going to take the saddleman seat back under the 90 day return to JPcycles. its pretty stiff. nothing over the one i had better.
not worth $450 to me.

chopped cam cover. found my uncles handband. works super good.


cut too much. found something that was plugged with a brass slug.
so i JB welded a bolt in and cut it off.


whoever tried to weld this supertrap expansion band thingy on need fired.


a run to JP cycles and return the saddleman seat. and bought this stuff.


so....ebay seller said it would fit. it didnt.
the Ramjett manifold i bought says super E. yes would fit carb but is for big twin. not a sportster.

short road trip 100 miles and camped out in some place down gravel and dirt roads.



feel like its hipster stuff but it keeps my pants from melting or being burned.

Still after a new front tire on an alloy wheel with new wheel bearings, there was some lack of tightness.
Upon heavy decel, weight to the front the neck would rattle.
So i proceeded to do a handlebar delete.



the green grease is from me, the other day i found a zerk fitting. far to late for the bearings though.


after a few minutes of banging on the stem to come loose i realized i had this in the corner still.


new bearings and shined up fer ya petral luvn frends.
