1964 Harley Davidson XLCH Sportster Café Racer Could Be Yours

1964 Harley Davidson XLCH Sportster Café Racer

In the market for a freshly built cafe racer based on a 1964 Harley Ironhead heart beat? Look no further as this one is for sale and currently on ebay. What makes this bike so damn nice are the clean lines and the slick attention to detail. Cafe Racers all seem to function in a very similar style, but it is nice to see an old Ironhead being placed in this machine and not just as the core to a run of the mill chopper. The entire bike has been tastefully built and surely runs as smooth.

Seeking Out A Small Block Chevy 350 Motor Reveals More In Eastern Carolina

Some days when you are on a mission to find a certain part of piece that you need for a build, too much hops in your path and you just have to scratch your head and consistently think on, why those items didn't cross your path before. Par exampla, rolled over to the coast today to link up with Mopar Rob to go and check out a lead on a 350 Small Block Chevy Motor and while waiting for our contact to show up at his shop we found all kinds of randomness. A 1950 Chevy 3100 truck that was being sold for 20k. Could easily see close to 10k but the rust spots and melted parts of dash were not a good sign. Then we happen to roll by a late 50's Chevy 4 x 4 longbed truck which was perfect for a shop truck, gotta check back in on that one. Also cruised by a shop called Combat Cycles which had quite a few builds out front but some just seemed to be a parts depot, compared to really though out for a killer ride.

Wrench Works - Sturigs Run Part 1

We got a huge batch of photos from Josh over at Wrench Works from his Sturgis trip this year, back in August. Will be posting them in several batches are there are way too many for just one sitting. After seeing these roads its quite easy to understand why the multitudes descend on South Dakota for our version of Mecca. Beer, bikes and debauchery are just a side note when it comes to the grandeur that is this region of the country. Get out there and ride the great highways and backroads. To hell with excuses, take the time, tune the bikes and report back on your findings. This blog is just one of many that can be a forum to any and all that want to contribute.  Send us an email and we would be glad to post your runs, bikes and travels.

HomeWreka's Ironhead

Our buddy Gary took some quality time to put together his Ironhead. After riding it free and clean of paint it was time to add some flair to his tank. He enlisted Ryzart to hook up some quality gold leafing and paint lines and the final result is bitchin'.
