Triumphs and Shotguns

Stayed an extra day on the way back in Kansas to visit with the Germans family. Sure enough, they gave us a shotgun and we rode out to the back 40. Everyone was having a blast. Jordan was a real killing machine. He hates those damn morning doves!

I was a little chopped the hell out when we left Cali but 4 days in a van has a way of making you crazy to want to get out a blast off all over again. I have tons of totally amazing pics to share so stay tuned to the chopper blog.

Skim Coat

Tank and fender made it to the painter. I suck at body work but luckily my painter was cool enough to do me a solid and get my sh*t right before spraying it. Supposed to be ready by tomorrow but we’ll see.  If all goes according to plan, the love machine will be on the street Wednesday night. Fingers crossed.

Z-Bars Ruling the Nation

Found this pic a while back. I was never the biggest fan of Z-bars until I saw this sweet machine. I’m digging it but I think its gotta be the z-bar & springer combo that really kills it. NOTE: I’ve regretfully decided not to post a pic of my z-bars cause they’re looking like ass on my shovel. chopper blog.

And So it Begins

That’s right. You can all bare witness to yet another young mans introduction into life on two wheels. Congrats J. That is one sweet little machine you got there. You rule dude.

Late Nights at the Shop

Every now and again, I end up pulling a double duty over at the print shop. It’s kinda cool cause I can crank the music without the business next door getting all “sandy vagina’d” on me. When the work day is through I can crack a beer, start shutting down and on occasion… even take some late night pics. I love my machines. In the daylight, they just sit quietly waiting for me to wake them up. And then when deadlines start gettin real crazy, this place is pounding and the floor vibrates like a locomotive. I love my machines. All 10 tons of them.
