My bench is a wreck...
Too many projects. Gotta finish the ironhead so I can get back on the panhead while I'm riding the shovelhead...

Rock 'n Ro-O-o-O-oll
Rob Zombie needs to get over himself and realize that the best music he ever created came from this band, not from his horror-pop solo career.

Not necessarily for us...
Living in the South has the disadvantage of being hot as ball sweat in the dog days of summer, but it also means that there are windows of riding weather all year long. There are still periods though that are too cold to scoot around so this applies to anyone who rides a bike that doesn't live on or around the equator.
This was taken from the JJ, which was obviously taken from some other blog...and so on.

Whoa Nelly...
Form over function. Why not just buy a tractor trailer? You'd actually be safer and you wouldn't need all of the doo-daddery present on this rolling barge. I think I'd rather set fire to my butthole than be confined to a life of riding this 1000lb. LED accessory lighting catalog.
On the other hand, all of this stuff may have actually come from the accessory aisle of a truck stop. If there's a CB and an airhorn I'll know that this thing was adorned with quality items hand-picked from the shelves of the local Love's station.

Growler Town
My buddy Richard is opening a growler store in Atlanta and asked me to do a logo for him. Here is the first of his printed bottles. Nice to see my work out there. Nick from the Haints helped me with digitizing my pencil and ink art.

Drink good beer...
I've probably posted about Chimay in the past and will again, but it's not often that you stay at a hotel where they serve full size bottles like its no big thang. God love the Belgians.

Engine Magic
So I have been putting together an S&S 107"
Johnny Cash style for about 3 years, as time
& funds allowed. Then like a fart in the wind
about 3 weeks ago a complete 107" pops up
on ebay for a good price & I bought it. Looks
to have low miles so a tear down seemed
wasteful (and to stop bleeding money) I decided against it. I would have loved to mill the heads
for 11:1 and port but settled for a Leineweber E-7.
The cam pic is of the E-7 & the stock S&S 520.

Happy Valentine's Day...
You're super special to me...especially since you're probably the only person who reads the blog anymore. How's that for personal sincerity?

FoMoCo 1970 LTD
This is one we just picked up. Cherry 1970 LTD. Was found in a local estate only 30K miles on her. 390, 2 barrel,C6 with factory A/C! Also 8 track player with the C.D.B. I am thinking a trip to Grand Canyon.

Lost in translation...
You remember that kanji tattoo you got that actually means "diarrhea?" Well, sometimes shit works the other way.

Wiring...
A rubbed taillight wire discharged the little ballistic battery in the Shovel, so I decided to basically redo stuff to make sure nothing like that happens again. Wiring tends to scare folks, but it's nothing to fear and gets easier with practice. Dig in.
120" Monster...

How do you sleep at night...
I remember when this came out like it was yesterday. People who were diehard industrial fans thought it was a slap in the face from Al Jourgenson, but being a metalhead it was a little more my speed. I enjoyed it better than their prior efforts.

Big monkey...
I see this guy on the reg again. Nice to have him back for the weekend beer drinking, cycle wrenching, and gun bullshitting session.

Good beer 2013...
The first time in the fifth year of this stupid ass blog that I've decided to inform anyone who even reads any more of the fantastic libations that manage to dazzle my palette. This high gravity (10.3% abv) beast has a sweet taste with a malty smoothness. God love Sweetwater and the Dank Tank lineage. Cheers from the BDAC.

Big Booty Hoes...
So the old ball & chain tells me that we're going on a family vacation with her folks this year to the beach. No sweat, her brothers like beer, the kids love the beach, and I don't mind getting away (I like to have a motorcycle with me if I can help it...or at least rent a scooter for that hair in the wind feeling). They hook up a house in Myrtle Beach that's big enough to hold an entire family and all of the shit that you have to haul to the beach with a bunch of germ pod children. A house is booked, vacation days are planned, and here we come...oh, but wait...that week is Black Bike Week. Awesome.
While I could probably have a better time at Black Bike Week than any of the PBR beardfest events that I go to, I don't think it's the kind of place that you parade around a group of 1-4 year old children in search of a quiet beach vacation. I want my three year old daughter to be a strong, independe...blah blah blah, but I don't want her to think that parading around the house in nothing but her princess panties is also acceptible street attire. Not that I have anything against galavanting around town in your skivvies, but as with any retarded guy with a kid of his own you think, "haha, awesome, but I don't want my kids doing it." It has to do with some kind of monkey DNA that is still latent in all of us that also keeps us from eating our children or something...I think I read that on Wikipedia once or something...maybe it was Urban Dictionary...or an episode of 48 Hours that my wife was watching trying to devise the perfect plan to finally get rid of me.
Okay, that was a tangent. Sorry. But, this whole deal got me thinking...we should do a Black Bike Week ride! That shit would be bananas. Who's in?

In The A...
Outkast will always go down as one of the greatest. Since they obviously can't work together because of whatever pain in the ass random shit that Dre comes up with, Big Boi just continues to make music on his own. Like it or not, it's still something for those who love this city.

Been a While...
So I got stoned as shit and started looking through all our old post. I have been away trying to stay away from social media as much as I can and I didn't realize how out of the loop you get being away. I have been dicking around turning the FXR into FXRP, It's gonna be pretty neat. I am working on my old man's T-bucket doing some body work and gonna lay some paint on it. Hope all is well with all my buddies around this great nation. I will try and post some shit on here of some of the projects I am working on. Cheers Fuckers!

New ride...
I had the same truck for 6 1/2 years. I wanted a new ride, but couldn't decide on what to get. I wanted a fast car again, but have to have a truck...so I decided to combine efforts.

Inside Looking Out

Dual Carb Knuck
I took these pics about 4 years ago at the
Wheels Through Time museum. This has always
been my favorite bike of all, aside from the
hemi head Crocker & the Harley DAH hill
climber. If I remember the story right Dale
made this bike out of a set of NOS knuckle
cases, & the paint was for Harley's 103rd.
Hands down just plain bad ass.

Sexy Snakes
Looking for ideas on exhaust & found this pic
on the RB racing page. Granted there is a big
technology gap between a Ferrari F-1 engine
& a Milwaukee tractor, but any engine is still
just an air pump. Plus it's just nice eye candy.

Snowballed
What started out as a mere main seal replacement
has now morphed into a complete tear down. Plans are to finally finish my 107", mid controls, wheels, exhaust, moving the stator exit location & a lot more small things no one will see but me.

Beer Drinking...
Well, used to be adventure club, but it's more of a solo effort now. I guess I should get to work. New year, new plan.
Super model...
Well, not really. My dad found this in a house he was selling and gave it to me so the boy and I can put it together. I mean, it's an Evo Softail, but Kustom Jeff will send me hate mail if I talk shit.
