Gotta get the garage lift installed. Gotta get a couple bikes finished. Gotta get the Queen Bees scoot going. Gotta get the shop finished. Gotta find those parts. Sh*t is never ending. One of these days I’m gonna get that Northern MN cabin idea going and just disappear. I’m convinced all I really need is a shovelhead, a 4×4, a barn, shotgun, and a wood stove.

Dreaming of blue skies and sunshine all the way. Weather is looking touchy this weekend though. If we get rained out, CHOPOUT will be postponed (in case anyone was wondering). I’m just not gonna make my last overnight end-of-season ride be a cold, wet, miserable, pisser. Either way – Breakfast at Mannings is still on. Be there any time. Ready to leave by 10:30.

Swung by Minneapolis yesterday to visit Eric and to take a look at his XS650 bar hopper. It’s definitely a build in progress and it looks like we’re going to be taking it in at the Speed Club Garage for the next few weeks. There are all sorts of odds and ends to button up but in the end we’ll be looking at one slick little bobber. He’s already set up his 100% CUSTOM FABRICATED hardtail frame including an FX front end w/ 21″ whitewalls and Harley 16″ spoke rear wheel w/ hydro banana caliper. I dont know the neck rake but the thing looks fast just sitting on the kick stand. Not many pics yet but we’ll definitely get some posted as the project progresses. Maybe we’ll snag a little video too? Check back often for more from the Speed Club Garage on the chopper blog.

Here’s a few pics of stretch with his harley drag bike out at lions raceway from way back when. This thing has it all. Great lines, nothing to hold on to and a face only a mother could love! These pics are great too. Lots of detail including the rad custom tank, school bell air filter cover, finned case, and that springer front end! Love those bobber style race bikes! Speed club approved!

A welcomed addition to the garage and the chopper blog! New steel rolled fender for the bobber project. Found it at last weekends swap meet. It’s got a really sweet duck tail on the end. Big thanks to Hans. Coming soon to a bike near me.
