Lined & Primed....



i was gonna try and completely finish the tank, paint and all this weekend...but i think I'll leave it alone till i can figure out what i wanna do...I'm having an artistic block. probably just keep it simple.......What i used to think was pretty cool & timeless has (as with all good things)blown the fuck up & I'm sick of seeing it! HAHAHA!

El Manual Labor....




is about to show up! broke it down for the last time (hopefully) time to start massaging the frame into some loving smoothness! We'll see how long that takes ....never used filler before, we shall see. The place i sent my motor too for the bottom end surgery said turnaround time is 30 day's so hopefully when it gets back I'll be able to bolt it down for good!! Gettin real antsy now... Just really hittin the rough spots, hack job on the neck and other little places here and there. Lot's of sanding & polishing to do still...boring non-entertaining work but it'll be worth it!!

PROGRESS??

There's not any. well none worth showing anyways.. been to hectic around here. The band, birthday's & work is screwy right now. it's been a weird 2 weeks. but it was good to be away from thing's for awhile. did some soul searching. i do the same thing with songs, I'll start the first verse off with some idea or feeling and go right into the first of the chorus, then BAMM! nothing. And then when i least expect it, when I'm not thinking or trying it finishes itself. I almost fucked up and did what i don't do. Forced shit to move forward & make progress. I lost sight of what made this bike me, lost track of what i set out to accomplish. A big thing was ground clearance.ditched the fender supports & fender for now...I'll move on with the rest of it with out giving 2 thoughts about it till I'm close to being done. It'll work itself out in the end. I drive people all around me crazy because I'm not a " time is money" kind of dude. I hate being pressured for time or deadlines. I'll sit & stare/think about it till i see what I'm searching for. And I could give a shit less about money!, but i understand it controls the universe. Sooo...what does all this mean? Have no idea. Just waiting for a few parts & then thing's will be back on track. Stay tuned......pics to come

When your broke....




your broke. take notes kids, if you wanna have a sweet chop to tell the world of stockers, yups, and the general meat heads how you feel...you gotta make sacrifices. No way around it. It's all worth it in the end!
