I Hate Jeff & Nelson

When I went on vacation I would come back with two pictures, both of the inside of LAX, one leaving and one returning. Since Jeff & Nelson asked me to join COC all that has changed!

The other night I pushed my Shovel into the yard to get to my Sportster as I turned back to the garage I thought wow that lighting looks really cool and ran inside to get my camera.

Thanks guys, now I have one more thing to obsess on!

This killer bike is sent in from Beer

This is a bike I have built, I think, more then ten years ago. It built it the way it is as a reaction on the fat tanks, fat tires, wide fat bars germanstyle Harleys that were the most popular thing over here at the time. I wanted mine skinny and I had lots of inspiration by looking at the bikes that were built by Lou Falcigno from C&L Hog shop in Florida.

I made my frame to look like his and made my own pipes on the belt side. I wanted the engine and tranny look modern instead of classic. So I used an silver Evo engine. For moneysake I used a 4speed and a narrow belt. I ordered a wassel gastank from W&W and waited a year for it to come, now they sell them everywhere. I took the tunnel out and repositioned the gascap. Made my own oilbag (from old electromotor covers from a conveyerbelt) and forward controls. With frisco styled jumppegs in the middle.

Made a handshifter next to the tank, a gascap and turned a FX frontfender in a rearfender. Wheels are aluminimum and from a dirtbike as are the brakes, or most of it. The bikes weighs next to nothing and with a stock engine plus that big SU carb it goes like hell! I had it painted in Japanese Manga style. When it was finished nobody liked that weird, small and skinny lookin bike except me. The picture I am sending is made last year. At that time took it to the workshop again to make a sissybar, new shifter and bars for it. I am still working on it now.
