Well... I saw that my buddy ScooterMcRad posted the Knuckle thread a few days ago.. I've been walking around with the thought of building a Knuckle powered dragbike..
But.. After doing some math, and discovering that I'm actually spending way to much cash on my other hobbies like BMX, photography and going to California, I kinda found out that, if I wanna build a Harley, I'm gonna have to do it on a budget I think..
Overhere in the Netherlands I simply cannot afford what I would really like to build.. Which would be Knuck, Pan or early Shovel.. I don't want a late Shovel...
Only stuff left for me would be an Ironhead Sporty probably, which is a fucking cool motor for a dragstyle bike (or a Pre Unit, but then we're talking Trumps, my other choice)..
A very experienced man who is on this board occasionally, once told me that the early Sportys can be a real pain in the butt...
What are your experiences with 'em..? I see 'em around quite a lot.. In magazines and on the streets, overhere and in USA..
They aren't very hard to find overhere too, which makes it even more easy for me..
I have the neccesary parts to make it look good... Ceriani forks, wicked 19" spoolwheel, peanut tank which can be modified, M&H 18" slick, and a box of other cool parts...
Let's here some stuff about 'em...
Thanks guys!
