Many of you folks know me from the place across the street. I have had a love of motorcycles for years, it was first drawing I did when I was a pup. Now, I have settled on one bike that is my rider a 95 Harley FLHTP I know its new but in the grand scheme of motorcycle world the evo is getting to be a "classic" yeah right.
First bike was an 81 Ironhead sporty, we had an understanding "it hated me and I hated it" after a couple of years of tryin to make the marriage work and the bitch wanting to fuck up when I was way far away from the house I had enough and found another she got traded off for a 84 dresser first year evo with the old style 5 spd and enclosed oil bath chain. She was a little plumper than what I was used, but I fell in love with that feel of comfort and wanting to work. I used that bike for a daily / grocery getter for years when work was slow. Anyway, there was others but now I settled with my ex police bike, done serious mod's to the body of it and painted it a tasty looking purple. Just did it's annual service new rear tire new fluids and working on sketches for the new paint.
Also have the front part of a Kawasaki KE 100 that I got out of someones trash that is going to be a mid size chopper, not a mini, not a full size. Motor is going to be a Briggs Vanguard and a rigid frame. Not sure of the tranny if one or just run the Torqaverter.
Anyway, that is my story - and hi to the other regulars
