bunch of new one off parts for the build

more build progress

Now I just have to mock up a battery box and get the pipes mounted corretly before tearing it all down to finish up some welding on the frame again. Then onto the powdercoaters with all sorts of parts and the seat sent out for leather.

making some foot pegs...http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

I am starting to make some new footpegs as nothing seems to fit my idea just right. Starting with a bit of rectangle 2" x 3" square tubing I had laying around and then decided to take out a half inch to make it a bit more thin. Then I will be cutting each pedal down to 3 inches wide and make end caps to allow for bolts to go through for mounting.

Full back tattoo started in Reno, by Cuzn Bill of Sacramento Tattoo

Finally finished the new tail end section

Soilwork absolutely killed it last night

Finally caught Soilwork live and damn damn damn was that a great show. Tight as hell and brought a lot of energy and got folks moving. Darkane and Warbringer opened it up and tore Raleigh a new ass. Had never seen those two either and Darkane was different enough to not be lumped into Soilwork's sound or In Flames but truly brought that great Swedish melodic death metal sound.

another new one

should be a good year for the merch side of things. First show is going to be at the Heavy Rebel Weekender in Winston Salem, NC

more progress...

Had to change up my original idea for the tail section as I really want the license plate incorporated into it rather than placing it down on the axle. Also bought a spare engine for parts, being that its hard as hell to find any parts for the 650's of those years. Cheap on ebay but got bit in the ass for shipping, go figure.

Leroy The Country Troubadour

Walking to another bar after the Gearhead Records Showcase Party in Reno during the Lady Luck Tattoo Convention. Leroy from Hellbound Glory decided to play some tunes while walking with us, which then turned into an all night bender for him while screaming country tunes on a casino bar. Love that dude!

Another new shirt

Cranking on artwork, trying to get all of my merch ready for the Smokeout in May and for the Heavy Rebel Weekender in July. This along with trying to get the cafe racer done as well. Too much work and too little time...
