Taken back in early October.....A little practice out behind the shop doin rollers on my Superglide.....hey, I only almost ate shit once, not bad in my book. I have not tried any since I put the taller bars on, they make such a difference in how the bike handles and responds to your movement I need some seat time to get used to it.

My Superglide project

This is basically what it looked like when i got it....other than the plate being in the normal location.

This is it a year later, with the mini fairing, 1st gen DX shocks, cut down levers, relocated plate, and mag wheels. This shot was taken with the Ray Price Samson 2 into 1, I recently slid a Thunderheader on to it.
This is a shot of a mock up I did last winter at the shop, bags are already done and the FXRD fairing is next


Couple oddball shots.....

Bags & Backrest installed, new shocks, old bars.
This is the latest pic I have, couple weeks ago in Hillsboro in some moderate weather.



Gettin cold outside......




Went to a taller set of T-bars, put a set of grip heaters in and some handguards.....eventually I'll find a shot of this bike without the baggage and throw it up here.
I've got everything together for the FXDX front fork upgrade, will install over the winter in my freezing ass shop....now that all my tools are here at home with me......Layoff SUCKS.

 My 94 sporty. Sits in waiting for some attention. Built 1250 motor with Edelbrock heads, Andrews N6 cams, S&S Super B. I have 07 Buell XB front suspension and front and rear wheels, and a custom made swingarm that I'm going to slide onto this frame. Some rear frame mods are also likely.

 My 03 FXDX, pics taken at different times.







The mini spare off my Buick Roadmaster......good for burnouts and such.

Been a while.......

But here's an update.

 Sold this one in the spring


My daily ride
And in Road Trip Mode.....

Since this was shot in July a Thunderheader has found its way to me and has been installed, BARELY clears the bags but it does. Those are Harley Touring bags, on detachable brackets I fabbed up from some old Softail leather bag supports. Both bags and the backrest all lift off as one. This winter it is getting a FXRT fairing, FXDX forks, and late model HD Bembo front brakes. Taller set of T-bars are in the works to clear the fairing as well. Paint and powder coat are also in the plan......I'm gonna need a new fuckin job.....

Rock out with your chop out........
