Time to juice up your motosickles...

Shit's starting to hurt!

Seat peek.....

Went a different direction with the Dyna seat....I got other plans for the artwork Jarrod whipped up....I'll take some better pics after i get it all sewed & laced up. Now i remember why i quit trying to make this a job & just went to doing it here & there as i feel like it & was interested haha......

Sunday's cure.......

Church of Christ just came knocking on my door. Sweet ladies. But why was one clinching her Bible staring at me like i was the Devil when she was the one walking the neighbor hood on this fine yellow morning in fuzzy house shoes & a bath robe?..........ah well, It's that time again, SATURDAY! Get off this damn thing & go chop something! Or ride or shoot guns or something!!!

I leave you with the new Foo Fighters song Rope. That right. I'm a Foo head! I fucking love these guys, new album 4-12-11!! Cant's wait!

Allright.....

One of you Quad Cam Bastards got a line or hook up on what i need to mount these calipers?? I need a piston & o-rings for one and all the hardware, plates & pads for both ( right & left side )....if i knew what to look up i would, & i don't have a manual haha

I HATE math.....

Spent 4 hours last night getting the rear wheel, fender centered up to make spacers and bungs to get it locked down....i was afraid the sprocket might be a tad too offset but i think it's gonna work out.

Came up with a better strut idea also....the left one always has lined up


But the right one never did.... & it's stupid. Drove me nutty thinking all the weight was out there on the end of the shock stud so i came up with an idea that is going to eliminate them all together


And hopefully slim up the rear a bit also...Stay tuned.....

Funny story.....

Sooo I've been knee deep in stripping & re-finishing kitchen cabinets all weekend, (except for Friday night i worked on the Dyna seat a little but I'll get into that later...) So i get a call from my boy Brent Saturday evening, who hopefully is gonna make the Born Free trip with me, & He says, "hey i got a Shovelhead problem over here at a gas station..I'm pretty sure the voltage regulator is fucking up & the battery is over charging...do you have an extra one or know anybody who has ? The guy is just passing through town." I said, well i have mine I'll gladly let him have to get him back on his way if he can wait 20-30 min for me to run to the shop and grab it? Not a problem he says.....so i get there & i can't quit shaking the guys hand cause he looks soooo familiar....? Then i said oh shit! we were drunk laying in the dirt together on drunk on some shitty whiskey on the Lone Star river run talking about Texas country & where some good venues were & you kept calling this guy "Smooch"! he just looked at me and says........That's because his name really is Smooch....HAHAHAHA Small world glad to help a guy out! I had no idea who or what i was going to approach at that gas station, If you have the time or part or what ever....at least stop & see if the guy who's broke down is OK or just needs a smoke......Jesse, i hope you made it back to Bryan College Station all right my friend..& come back through town anytime!! HOLLA!!

PaRTy TimE!!!

LETS GO

Friday's sound track

Good shop tunes for your weekend of choppin! It'll jump start your morning that's for sure....Never heard of these guy's till a couple of day's ago....I can't quit listening to this album now. It's pretty Wide Fuckin Open rock & roll with melodic sing along chorus's that makes me happy! Plus I love singers who can sing that aggressive all through an album....better yet can pull it off live. Very well produced, get the deluxe album with the 3 live tracks at the end.

I love music & playing my git-fiddle as much as the next guy.....

BUT.......??????





AND....if you should happen to find yourself wanting to take the clear coat off of your stock legs to polish'em up real pretty like you should use this shit....My 3rd set to do & this works bad ass. Just leave it on 10 minutes or so & it starts popping & crackling the clear coat, Get your shop air & just blow the shit off. Painless & super sexy. But it stings the hell out of your skin if it lands on you haha

mmmm....sho gotta purdy mouf....

!!!!GO FAST SUCKA!!!!

Spring time can't get here fast enough....

Weekend's like this one spoils my ass. Supposed to be in the 70's all week & then some! We'll see.....


I'm ready for the grass to be green again!!


Played around a little Friday night......


Just trying different shit to appease my wishy washy ass till i can hard tail it later on....

Speaking of hangovers.....

ooooof.....Double Crown & Coke slushies will kick your ass. But if your a professional beer drinker like we are around here....I highly recommend this miracle drug that's not even a drug!



Kinda pricey & a weird funky green taste like you got too close to the rind on water melon while chompin down..but WELL worth it! down 1-2 of the 33 Oz. ones & your ready to go fly a kite again....insane super re-hydration.




On another note...I picked up these dual disk lowers up for the Shovel. This bike never had rear brakes so I'm just not into doing the no front brake thing. Just ain't my deal...I like performance. And as stupid as i ride most of the time it's just a damn good idea to have not one...but TWO fronts hahaha.








Their in rough shape but I'll put the okie doke on'em so the look decent when I'm done


*****SOLD*****

And the ones i shaved & polished are for sell to fund these shenanigans. So if you want'em,

Sucks......

Nice stack!

Damn these things are tiny...& really light! Nice work, I would try it on for size but i sent my Carb off Saturday to Zippers for the hotrod treatment.




Oh you can get yours right over HERE

Wheeew!

What a relief to finally drop the motor in! I forgot about everything in life that's been bothering me after that! I still am. Not a damn thing matters now but to stay steady on finishing. Fuck work, Fuck money, Fuck the asshole who let my dogs out ( that's a weird ass feeling getting home from the bar drunk & your dogs are running all over the neighbor hood, Gate's pushed in the WRONG way & a cop comes slow rolling hitting you with spot lights!) , Fuck IT! Troubles pulling on my nut sack. He's pissed off for being down so long & so am I. I had this weird trip back to when i first tore this thing apart the first time i got it.







GOT to figure this shit out. I'm over it, It's time to roll. gotta do what i was gonna do in the first place, Flat fender, put the struts back on, re-work this old sissy to make it all fit nice....& be done.


Still got all the little shit to do & figure out, gonna just work with what i got, gotta make my 2 existing coils work in the stock location, get tranny lined up, get rear wheel lined up & figure what spacers i need to make blah blah stay tuned........

oh & make controls (First idea didn't quite work out so back to drawing board) & pipes. Still a ways to got but... feel good about it

IT'S SATURDAY!!!!

GET OFF THE DAMN COMPUTER & DO SOMETHING

Get whAt yA neeD!

My boy Kyle A.K.A KROWN can hook you up! Throw him a shout.


He started a new Bloggy ching-a-letta to get some stuff out there !!CHECK IT!! jUST e-mail him for info





LORDS OF LOUD MUDDA FUKS



oH...by the way....Thanks for the love!!!!




It's nice to feel wanted

Anybody??

All right....I've come up with all kinds of deadend's so here it goes....

Harley part # 63543-82...................anyone got a line on one of these?




Their trying to charge me $38 bucks for it from the Stealership. Fuck them....Again...$12 bucks for shipping??? It's smaller then a thimble & weighs less then 3 fuckin BB's! ....Whatever.....i'm determined to NOT buy it from them but I HAVE to have it!

It's the top oil line connector for a Shovelhead rocker box that restricts the oil flow down a notch.


Sorry not many progress pics yet....I've been dealing with trying to find all the little bullshit like this that I've either A.lost, B. Swallowed, or C.just needs to be replaced because it's junk...Just about got every bolt nook & cranny replaced with new Allen type hard ware...i HATE acorn nut shit.
