Born Free 4 this Saturday

If you have just landed from another planet and are looking for something to do this weekend, go to Oak Canyon Ranch 20 minutes east of the 55 on Chapman just past Irvine Lake.  Here's a slideshow from last year's show.

Getting it done @ Speed Merchant

Went over to see Brandon at Speed Merchant to see how he was doing on his sportster build for BF4 and to hand over a lil piece to help him slow it down. Gixxer caliper adapter for the 39mm narrow glide and wheel sporting a 13" rotor.

Lucas Oil Open House

Since the Headquarters are here in my hometown, I went to check out the BBQ and array of Hotrods , drag cars, trophy trucks, and a couple of bikes.

Double Trouble for Mike D

Here's another exhaust clamp for Biltwell Mike D's second build. I just made this one 1" thick and radiused the edges. Hope you like it, buddy!!!

Hump day

You know you got yourself a good woman when out of the blue you get texts like these.

Tatuesday

A day early is never too bad unless it was the day you were supposed to die. But in her arms I would die happy for sure.

Father's Day Gift...

    I had a couple bucks in my pocket and after scouring the innerwebbings for a decent commuter/ fun bike, I found a 1000cc V-Twin Honda I now proudly call Chicken Hawk. I've had my eye on this girl for a while and when the seller told me he already had a guy looking at it that same day, I told him, "Ah he won't buy. Call me later!!" And yesterday she became mine as I mounted her and rode her home.  Torquey yet manageable, this bike will receive some chop treatment due to my obsessive desire to, well, chop.  If you truly ride motorcycles, you would understand why I bought this bike. As for all you posers, wannabes and hipsters, may the ground swallow you up and devour you and your gay bike one store-bought piece at a time.
   Anyway, my plans for this wannabe Ducati, if you will, include superbars, an R1 front end, half fairings from Airtech Streamlining and a new sub-frame and seat/tail section. It came with Yoshimura cans and I may cut those down a bit too. The gas tank will definitely get a new look to complement the lines I want instill in this project. But for now, I will put just miles and miles on it every chance I get.

EFI Fitting to AN-6

Here's a lil ditty I did for a customer who's putting a neat lil friscoed tank on his '09 Sporty. In order to make it work I'll have to mount an inline fuel pump and regulator and into the injector bodies. Problem is HD makes this dumb connector part of the hose. So all I had to do is make an adapter to fit the AN-6 hoses we're using. More pics to follow....

Holy Shit Duc

For the past two weeks, I've been so swamped that I didn't even have the time to start the bike. I would love to strap what I need on the tail of this Duc and go road trippin' solo.
