Started this build for last years chop-off. Finally finished it and put on a few hundred miles. I started with designing and building the front end. The bike is pretty light so it's a single shock set-up. Built as much as possible myself, frame, seat pan, bars, sissy, machine work and rebuilt the engine. Traded a friend for the 71 engine he found in a barn. It needed a lot of work but I love the look of those engines. Plus it holds a little more oil and is a kick only like my other ones but didn't need a starter block off plate. Made my own oil cooler to save some money out of some drop off 3" 6061 solid at work. Hope to make it out to Ohio this year as a spectator.

I've been wondering where you had gone. The bike look great. I'd love to see it up close. Want to meet in Sheldon for coffee some time?
