Getting close?

Yeah – me neither. Seems like everyone out here is working on at least one project if not two. I just checked the Donnie Smith Show site and that at least give me some kind of deadline. 52 days to get my act together. TO DO: Tonight Im getting up with New Kevin to bend up a sissy bar and finish weld my bars. A new wheel arrives tomorrow (Ive got the tire and tube sitting on a shelf). Im also making some crazy super-pipes and I have to rebuild a set of heads and rockers. After that, I can make some wheel spacers, mount my fender and piece everything together before stripping down for paint and chrome. Okay – so apparently Ive got some work to do.

Welding an xs650 Hardtail

Dropped off Rusty’s xs650 hardtail over at Druncle Evans last night! Rusty tacked everything together at home and E is gonna roll out the Big Mig to finish everything off. Rusty rode this thing around all summer. Never managed to break a single weld! We’re all very happy to have him with us today. A couple weeks from now, I’m sure we’ll have a few more posts of his bike in final reassembly.
