Hey everyone, I have been eyeballin this site for some time now figured it was time to join now more than ever....because i now own a shovelhead :D

I work/ live in Yakima Wa. I design & manage large commercial building projects in this area by day.... Metal fabricator/ wrench spinner by night.

I was planning on the shovel tear down more towards the winter time (wanted to ride to the end of riding season) However in a recent move some a$$hole (me) sheared off the exhaust port on my front head loading the bike on a trailer :eek: So i figured that was a good enough excuse to start tearing things apart.

Anyways,
This site has given me huge inspiration to what these bikes are capable of turning out like. I hope someday (spring hopefully) mine could rate up there with some of these amazing bikes seen on this site.

Thanks all!

Chris

This is the shovel with the shorter fork tubes (just mocked up to see how slammed it would be) its more within my... comfort zone... I was happy then ripped it all down to nothing lol.



This was my 04 Buell xb12s that i traded the shovel for... miss that thing but i really looked like a gorilla fucking a golf ball on it ;)



This is my other bike the tiny yami TX 500 i believe its a 1974, this was a barn find quick little cafe job... let a friend ride it and he crashed it... so its a little dented up now :( probably loudest bike in my town haha..
