Hi,

My names Matt, from Terrace BC. Started building a bike cause I wanted it done the way I wanted. That was 8 years and three kids ago, now I just want it on the road.

Simple & reliable are what I'm going for. She's all stripped down right now, but in the corner is a 75 FLH front end, sporty tank, 21" front wheel, magneto is going on tonight. I'll take more pics when its better dressed.

This board is a life saver. So many on here have helped so much without even knowing it. Thanks.

Welcome! I used to live in your neck of the woods about 25 years ago. It had a pretty cool bike scene back then.

Nice project! All of you BC folks are making me miss the roads in the interior...haha

Thanks guys.

Koots sounds like a happening place. C.O., unfortunately you only see them on toy runs and shows, but your right, there's tons of bikes and rod around here, and lots of skilled folks.

DPWU, when I lived in Ontario, I didn't understand how anybody could ride a rigid. BC roads are awesome!
