101

This one is for Lurker Tom. Pretty damn sure you didn't ask but I've looked at a bunch of photos over the last couple weeks and I think you should run with the 400X18's. In any case let me know if you need a hand assembling a roller.




Still watching the due date on the book you loaned me too. It's a winner.

Decker Crocker

I haven't posted a picture of this bike for a while. Every so often I start to think this build is getting a little dated (sprotor etc.) or I'm just becoming a resto purist and then I see it from a new angle. Damn it's still cool.

Thunderbird HD Collection

I stopped by Thunderbird Harley briefly today and noticed their entire vintage collection was gone (see top left rear portion of photo). Hopefully they just pulled all the bikes down to re-Dark Customs theme that portion of the shop or something. Does anyone really walk in there for any reason other than to check out the old bike collection? Seems hard to imagine...



I to a quick poke at their web site to see if there was any mention but didn't find anything. I did however find a picture of this sketchy dude. What do you wanna bet they are all in his garage or something.

MotoBoy

V rekindled his interest in motorcycling this weekend. He seemed to have a pretty good time riding Saturday morning.

Emma Update

So, as of today the old girl is fully insured, titled and registered. Not a very exciting post for you maybe but I'm pretty damn excited. The wiring is all done and sorted too (save the Speedo light, meh). Might be a little easier to get the engine broken in with it legal to ride. It snowed today and my calender is kinda filling up after work. Tomorrow maybe. I have a couple of leaks to resolve too.



It's not registered with a '51 plate but I had to post some kind of picture. New Mexico '51 plates seem to run about 10x what a '51 from any other state costs. Maybe it's time to move...
