MySpace...

Here is MySpace...not some damn stalker/pedophile site.

Thanks Shane...


Here's what I did with that wheel you sent me. Who needs black rims when you can run white ones?

Clutch Show...

We're going to see Clutch next Wednesday night if anyone wants to go. Hit me up.

RB Racing LSR Exhaust...

Anyone got any experience? What's the fun of having a 96" Shovel if it's not putting out max performance? According to the research I've read (which corresponds with everything I learned about cars in all my years of messing with those), a properly designed 2-into-1 exhaust with a merge collector will outperform drag pipes in the lower end of the powerband, which is what most of us use anyway. Drags are great on the highway, and sound good, but if I'm eating up tire-pullin' power, then I'm not happy. Also, being that it's a 4 speed that is fighting over 90mph anyway, then I'm thinking this may be the way to go.

Front fender rear...

Here's one for Josh (Standard Cycle).

More parts fo' da Shovel...

I got these grips from Kraus Motor Co. They're supposed to fit over 1" bars and normal throttle sleeves, but I've got busted blood vessels on my chest from forcing that sumbitch on one of the new Lowbrow Customs throttles. I got it on and they're pretty nice. I'll toss them on the bike tonight.

Free Tank 2...

I got that set of free OEM 3.5 gallons a couple of months ago and decided it was time to start getting them right this weekend. Since someone at some point had decided to booger weld on some flat stock in the place of a broken front upper mount, I wanted to cut it off and have Zach at Saligoe Metal Works make me a mount that is similar to stock.

Look at this piece...and when I say booger welded, I don't mean tacked. I mean 4 lbs. of weld.

Monday Eye Candy...

Another Stolen Pic Friday...

Shit like this helps me keep mine a swingarm.

Mastodon, High on Fire, Converge, and Dethklok...

Badass. They're playing here on Thursday, November 5th. If anyone wants to join us, just let me know.

Finally Stopped Raining...

I got to pull the scoot out today. It's about damn time. Rain is good, but 3 weeks straight sucks.

Oh yeah, and the mirror...I like the long pole mirror much better than the billet pieces of shit that were on it. Now if everything will come back from powdercoat and my new grips will get here from Kraus, I can start changing more shit.

Still badass...

Dude knew what he was doing.

Ballin'...

20090922

I'd also trade...

The transmission too. For what? Shit, make it interesting. Jap bikes, Shovel parts, Indian headdresses, pictures of Bea Arthur naked. trades can include cash too.

Ultima 6 Speed for sale...

Brand new with MSO. I pulled it all apart to rebuild with other parts, but went another direction and put back together as original. I installed all new gaskets, a new main gear bearing, new seals, etc. $400 shipped in the continental US.

SCORED...

I scored two, in the box, NOS Superior long stem mirrors for $24 shipped on eBay. I'm bringin' this shit back. It's gangsta compared to shitty billet mirrors. I got one for the Wide Glide and one for the parts shelf.

Damn Rain...

It's been raining for almost two weeks straight here in Metro Atlanta. Some schools are closed today, many of the local roads are closed, and some people have even died (WTF?) from this rain.

Another Monday...

Old Dude's

I stopped by there to pick up some stuff that Harley has deemed "obsolete." This place is packed with NOS parts and memories. Clete has been doing this shit for many years. It's so cool to be around people like that. Here are some pics from inside his shop.



You Motorboatin' Son of a Bitch...

I went up to Southern Cycle to look around today. This is sitting in their shop. It needs to be ridden.

Stolen Pic Friday...

Danny Takahashi's shovel. I don't know who took the pic, but props to them. Once it stops raining, maybe I can start riding again and took some more of my own pics. I looked down this morning and realized that there was a page full of posts with no motorcycle pictures.

Bitchin'...

In the perpetual search for Crazy Frank's goodness, sometimes you run across a real gem. If there were a prize for having badass shit, this dude would be the winner.

Honda Hummer...

My brother-in-law lives on 5 acres in the middle of the town where I went to high school. He has a little 50cc scooter and every time we have a few beers in us, we do time trials around the pond. I tried running full speed and catching some air over this gravel pit last time and came close to breaking my face, but luckily I rode it out.

I found this pic on the inTerNetz and immediately thought, "I need that."

My Brother, the Doctor!


Dr. Werner Klopek (Henry Gibson) died yesterday...and The Burbs is still an awesome movie.

T-Shirts...

Thinking about getting myself a t-shirt made. I was doodling about it last night while the wife was watching More To Love.

Getting Geared Up For This Weekend...

Looking at old football season pics. I was showing Mikey the ways of Das Boot (he had the little one). Notice the Stafford jersey t-shirt?

The one and only Custom Nig...


Here's the man in all his glory gettin all Thuglife for ya niggas. We get emails all the time inquiring as to his whereabouts. I'm pleased to report that he's gainfully employed in the FX catering department as personal pastry chef to the SOA cast and crew. Good work Nig!

Two Dead Guys...

I hope ya'll are dancing it up on the other side.

Here You Go, Nick...

Another I found and dicked with in Photoshop to make it pop a little more.

The Haints...

I gotta head to B'ham soon.

It's Monday...damn.

Sorry about last week. I had no internet access.

Dixie Fried Photo Dump 7...

Plenty of good cars and a couple of bikes. Ran into Nick and the Haints. I had to leave early to catch a flight, but still had a good time. Hopefully I'll be able to take an early 60's C-10 next year, but that's a matter of acquiring one.
