fabrication...

... is kind of like therapy to me.  No better way to clear my mind than to concentrate on making things fit together.

Trump bits

Dennis got his bike back to me as a roller so it was time to tackle pipes.  These pipes were made by someone else, some modification was needed for oil bag (and cylinder) clearance.  Add some heat shields and we'll be good to go.

Fun weekend

Ride to Skate 6, FDR skatepark in Philly.  Good times.

On the road

Headed to Ride to Skate 6 in Philly with a fabled up trophy riding shotgun. I wish I could've taken the bike but I couldn't figure out how to pack the trophy, t-shirts, 5 sets of bars, my skateboard/old guy pads, and other misc stuff on the Buell.

Pressure test

Haven't modified any efi tanks, so I had to make a block off plate. Old efi section, some acrylic, and rtv silicone.

Cross it off...

... the list.  Sunday in the shop, trying to knock as many things off the to do list for the evo sportster as possible.

S&S Super E idle and accelerator pump screw modifications... check.

Shell games

Prepping the shell to notch over the rockers.

Things I remember

The stack of albums my Dad had when I was allowed to operate his turntable, just remembering some of the bits.

Cleaner

When I sold the shovel, I kept the BCM pinner ac.  A couple more mods to the idle adjust and accel pump screws and it'll be sorted.

pipe bits

Making stainless pipes, first make the header flanges.
