my shovel...and I'm building that sportster in the back, too, but my camera just broke and I don't have any good pics of it

[Chandler]

Thats nice!! Im trying to post my current ride but Image Hosting is messing up. Its nothing near as cool as the shovel you got.

[Chandler]

Current ride. Slowly striping it down. Knee surgerys slowing me down. Basically just a cam, carb and hand shift.

This is the project I can never seem to finish. Heritage in the back ground was my fathers.We got it when my father passed away. My brother rides it now. No chopping on this one. Leaving it the way Dad had it.

My Four Five. Ironhead project. Tank for Ironhead project (figure it out). Will post pic.'s of Pan when wife returns w/ digital camera.

[ABone312]

This is the Triumph that I sold last year to help get the funds to get my Harley.

[knucklehead]

my old 1913 H-D model 9E chain drive twin, single speed since H-D did not develope a 2 speed until 1914 when it used excelsior's 2 speed rear hub. also, no floorboards, you kept your feet on the peadles. this was the scariest bike i ever rode. it would do 60 if you had cast iron balls. i dont, but i rode around 35-40 mph and what a handfull! ridgid rear, 1" travel in front, tiller type bars, coaster brakes just like your old schwinn bicycle, that worked about as well!

[knucklehead]

my favorite bike, my 1938 UL 74" flathead. i built this about 12 years ago, it is not fully restored, but about 95% correct, needs step hubs, less chrome, correct bars, & air horn (carb cover) but other than that it is about all correct. a blast to ride, with or withour the sidecar attached.

[knucklehead]

my 1946 EL 61" knucklehead (with 74" wheels & pan jugs) not very correct, but a good rideing machine. much more power than my flattie, but less than the pan.

[knucklehead]

my '53 fl panhead. never really liked pans except for resale, but this one was very correct so i kept it. seized a rod bearing so i tore it completely apart for a full restoration. have it about 1/2 way done now. i want to repaint it, but have not selected a color yet.

[knucklehead]

my '40 EL knucklehead, now 74". mostly genuine H-D parts, just chromed a bunch of it. nearly perfect '41 frame, nos 45 springer converted to fit 1" bearings, stock front drum, pm disc rear, open belt, 36-39 tanks, 41-46 speedo. been collecting parts for this one for about 14 years or so i think, i lost track.

[knucklehead]

my 46 cushman scooter. this is for sale if anyone is interested. $2,500 runs great. starts right up.

[Primo]

Not much ATM but getting there. Hardtail with a little bit of stretch and an 18 inch rear wheel. Building a girder front end with a 19' front.

I've also got another Triumph I'm going to try to build at the same time as the BSA...it'll actually look nothing like this when it's finished:

http://pic3.picturetrail.com/VOL19/1983783/7391060/96470124.jpg

Finally, here's the Triumph I sold at the Lonestar Roundup...I kind of miss it, but it did help get the shop up and running and allowed me to buy my new TIG:

[TheFrenZ]

Bass,your BSA is going to be one killer ride.Already heard about your plans for this one on the HAMB but didn't reply to the thread because so many people already told you how bitchin' that bike is going to be or already is.Of course they were right.Your idea for the fork is pretty cool and I like those shortforkers a lot ! I look forward to any progress on this one.The stance is right on and the bike is very low.Do you think you can build it this low ? I'm just thinking of turns and curves...

[Flyin' Dutchman]

Damn Bass! I didn't even you sold that first bike you did... But having a TIG machine rules too though!

How long have you been working on the bare metal chopper now..?

[sparkymoffett]

Looks good in that frame Sparky. You get much done to it this week?

Nah not really, just little shit. Since i work nights, i can bring small stuff into work with me and tinker out on the loading dock. Got the points cover with me tonight to sand down and i sanded the rear fender last night.

Realized after fighting with that damn frontend, (what's up non sealed bearings and having to fight with little individual ball bearings) that the neck doesn't have fork stops on it. so i have to take it off again to make some. DAMN

[sparkymoffett]

This is the Triumph that I sold last year to help get the funds to get my Harley.

Damn Bass! I didn't even you sold that first bike you did... But having a TIG machine rules too though!

Maurice....Yes, having a TIG is a good thing. I bought an older used Miller (Airco) Dialarc HF 250 amp machine with a water cooler. I'm actually getting pretty good at it already I think...but I do need lots more practice. It's a lot harder than Jimmy White makes it look! :)

I started on the bare metal chop back in November, but I haven't worked on it much for the last 2 months because I've been pretty busy with other stuff. I'm going to finish wiring it this week though...and try to start it.

Thanks Frenz...post some more pics of that bike of yours when you get a chance.

[Apehanger Hank]

I got hooked on Honda 450s for a while. Probably because the motor looks so nice. I rode em, raced em, and of course chopped them. This was one of them. Poor picture, I'll see if I can find some better ones. This is a 4 speed motor in an AEE/C&G rigid frame.
Hank

[hightest]

knucklehead, i envy you. a lot.

here's one of my old bikes.

[bluebrian]

Bass' bikes rule. I have seen them at the shop a few times and there are lots of cool details. Good luck with the TIG. I wish mine was water cooled.

My flyrite chopper. Owned it over a year now and is ridden almost daily.

heres my old 56 triumph trolphy. one kick start. restored stock + a few period speed parts

other stuff...

[greggski]

It's good to see other types of bikes than just H-D's not that theresanything wrong with them. Just wish i could afford one. Keep up the good work guys show us what you all got stored in the back of the shop! Gregg

[Kustombuilder]

here is my 70 BSA as i got it from Hatch. gonna have it on the road shortly, with some changes as i ride it this summer. semi-major cosmetic overhaul this winter. still gettin my thoughts together on the details.

[bones35]

this is my shovel, and i sold the sportster a few months ago. right know she's torn down again. ive redone this bike atleast three times, cant afford to build another right know so i just improve on what needs improvin and ride on till the next time, the only think that sucks is i always tear her down in the early spring.

Yeah, I've been busy! I just finished hardtailing an Evo Sporty, so the guy could take it to Laconia. Check it out. And, I took this weekend to do some of MY projects

Also, if you look in the background, on the lift, you'll see a 103" Knuckle bobber just started for a guy. And, I have a "super secret" WCC built frame to start another bike for Carlos.

I got the frame 3 years ago from Chica.
It was one that he and Nelson bent back in the day.
Its the smoothest-riding rigid I have ever ridden.

[Irish Rich]

Yeah, I bent the sissy bar out of 5/8" cold rolled, then added the T/L and the plate mounts.

The hardtail was one made for an ironhead sporty, I just cut off the old lower mounts, then I extended the rails to mate with the Evo lower frame area.

[Tha Nutz]

was done a couple years ago post-nelson. Johnny chop was the guy I dealt with there mainly. I was visiting Chica's in april and he had some sweet shit going down.

The 'poon is hooking me up with TWO paint jobs--I am saving one for my shovel project and I still haven't decided if my triumph deserves the 'poon magic. . .

Irish Rich working on his own shit. I don't believe it.

That carlos dude must have some serious dough for the work he's getting done. Good for him.

I am in the middle of my own fabrication nightmare now. I am widening my triumph frame rear section so I can run a juice brake--what a fucking disaster. I am gonna try and finish it up tomorrow.

those are all some SIC fuckin bikes. i'm truely inspired.

BASS. your like my Gaw Damn hero. sad to hear you sold the Triumph, i loved it. but it looks like you have several worthy replacements in the works. that tank on the 666 bike (the Beazer i believe). what is it man??? i LOVE it. i might have to fabricate me one like that some day.

Corey. yer Nailhead is still waiting patiently behind the 56 Chevy and under God knows what. it'l take me half a day ATLEAST to dig it out. you goin to the HAMB drags?? i can't make it cause of a family obligation (thought i was gonna go this year too) but i could prolly get Levis Classic to drag it down there for ya. PM me.

[knucklehead]

this is what it looked like when i got it, perfect '47 frame & forks, nice set of 36-39 knuck tanks! pan speedo, motor all there but not running. i am putting a '47 knuck motor in this frame & forks & this UL went into a pan frame with a 2" under glide for a bobber project made of leftover parts from other bikes i have built, my johnny cash special!

[knucklehead]

i built this one back in the late 80's. it was a '62 pan with '66 shovel heads, 93". ran great!

[earl schieb]

Man, I got ripped off! About that same year I paid $90 for this and it barely ran.

[mikes51]

I got tired of replacing headgaskets on the flathead 74. Even though they only cost 90 cents a piece at Hap Jones.

Eventually I saved a few hundred more and upgraded to this tangerine colored pan ($300)

After the connecting rod in the pan decided to explode the cases into a million pieces, I then put a knuckle in the old pan frame. Then finally I had a reliable ride.

Huh!!!
Closest translation I could find was something like:

[El Caballo]

When you first posted the pic of your bike, the pic had some website warning that the link was forbidden. I thought that was rather severe language so I made fun of it, the auslinken is just some jive I made up for "outside links".

The front end was extended 3 1/2". In those days you replaced the threaded top plug in the fork leg with one that was 3 1/2" long. Then you pushed the whole front end down that amount in the lower triple clamp. wierd stuff. A guy named Stan Dishong (Stan's cycle shop) specialized in making those "extensions", he was located in Vallejo, Ca.

The motor was a 1938 61 cu inch lower case, pan head barrels, with flathead flywheels. that would make it then stroked to 80". A retired guy who used to build racing engines built the motor. I can't recall his name, but he had a machine shop along side the Rogue River in Oregon.

I freaked when those mufflers showed up cause they were so big looking, but they sounded great, melloooow, like glass packs.

Mike I'm about 30 min. northeast of you. Just west of Flint off of I-69.
I will probably be selling off some misc. XS stuff after I get farther along on the projects (read started). See Ya at BP05 next weekend? I'll be the bearded guy without a ride and my two kids in tow.


i'll be ridin shotgun in Mongo's two tone grey primered 60 Olds two door hardtop. i'm the one (they say) that looks like the devil.

[El Caballo]

I like the staggered look of those pipes, kinda thinking about something like that for my Sporty, but looks much better on a rigid frame...

Here's my '78 Sporty.

[mightyherc]

This was my first Harley, I was building a go fast mini Dresser style bike. I had to sell it to move the family to Phoenix. I was able to get the invaders back and i have a coffin tank and z-bars to start the next project. Looking to build a rigid with a girder or springer, but the motor is undicided at this point.

But I cant seem to get any for a reasonable deal. I was thinking maybe some Tourneys in the mean time.....A Patterson with Graphite Tuff Wheels! That's Great!

Skateboards? Mine was homebrewed about '62. A piece of 1x4 with steel wheels off of a pair of skates. I shaped it like a surfboard, sorta. I thought I was hot stuff when I skated down the top of the curbs in my little Midwest town.

Here's one of my rides. It's a '39 Indian Sport Scout. Mine since about 1973. I courted my wife on this bike, chased her 'til she caught me, as my Grandad used to say. In the background is a '41 Scout bobber project.

Did you trade a dude from cal. a narrow glide for an extended springer a while back?

[SltyDog]

[Big Earl]

Here's my budget ride. I spent a few winters on it. It is a '77 Yamaha xs 650. Rigid, 18" rear tire, cammed up motor, and the funnest thing I've ever ridden. I'd like to see more people to chop up the abundant Japanese bikes. I dig Harleys, but they are almost cliche' as the bike to chop. To each his own, right?

Top one looks like a Torker, split top tube and notoriously heavy.

Man, I had a Torker 250. The thing was a beast. I only weighed 80lbs I could barely pop a wheelie with it

Your scoot looks good. I have seen the cafe racer guys drill five, 1 inch holes in those conical hubs, makeing them look like Manx hubs. Speed holes are always cool in my book and they really set those hubs off. If you look in the inside of the hub, there are five reinforced webings that you can use as a template. Obviously, miss the reinforcements. Just a cool detail that came to mind when looking at your bike.

Must be a ness frame--that thin frame tubing is a dead giveaway. They are cool frames for sure.

Josh, that thing is looking great. What motor is going in that?

One of the hardest things to do, was finding the old ness winged oil tanks for that frame.. although i found it, it took forever... I am convinced that the old Jim Davis frames are still the best looking frames ever... Is jim davis still around?

Bitchin' glorydays ! Here's another bike with that same frame...(might have had a little less stretch in downtubes...not sure..) Those thin tubes makes the engine look "big"...this is also one of my alltime favorite scoot's in it's style of course..
(neck gusset homemade on this one..)

[AustinMark]

Man Ness' early shit was cool... WTF happened to that guy, I mean respect and all, but his stuff now just don't do it for me...

[Too Many Projects]

My opinion is that Ness, Coddington, Foose and a bunch of others stopped building cars and bikes and just build "art" now. The stuff they do is awesome on a lot of levels but mostly out of touch with the street and us poor common folk. lol...

[glorydays]

timeless beauty, that blue bike...I could sit and look at nothing but early ness bikes all day long... I guess that's why i look at nothing but 1970 - 80's easyriders.. every mag had a ness frame in them... and just try and find a 155-165 pirelli cinturato like on that blue bike, it's more rare than a 2.75 speedmaster...

Ha Glorydays ! So you looked for that Pirelli tire huh? Me to, for about a year, found one but used up for about 80%..ran it anyway !
The Michelin's are very close in design and thread...
Ness ruled bigtime in those days man... Here an Ironhead in a Ness frame, also one of my alltime favorites..(in it's class of course)
Check out those "sleeek" lines...

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y258/buzkilr/Fck1.jpg

I haven't accomplished much of anything on it since the pic was taken last year. I've had a fucked up year with a fucked up back. Yadda Yadda I've been gunshy about getting out in the garage and wrenching on it.

Although riding this has been a total distraction
