I like the handlebars, where you re-located the speedo, the big ol' "Y" pipe, the chain conversion, and the seat. I know your ass gets sore on long rides, because mine does, and my seat is about as thick with padding as yours. Your bike is COOL! Thanx for posting the photo, and I did check out the link at the bottom.
Thanks for the compliments. Although there was no chain conversion. It's a '92... the last year of the chain drive.

Thanks Kevin

It's a work in progress but so far it's 12.32 in the 1/4 with my 250lb butt onboard. Goal is to get it in the high 11's one of these days

Did have a BigTwin come up along side me today and wanted to play, all he did was hear the roar of my Supertrapp

Racingjake,

Yeah I'm 250lbs. too, give or take a few lbs., but 12.35, maybe 11's sounds pretty good for 1/4 mile.

crapgame,

I checked out your blog. Pretty cool. I like the photo you posted from your ride today. Were you stopped for a pit stop, or did you really have mechanical trouble?

mistert923,

Thanx for posting your photos! I like the sparto tail light, and the rear rim up front. Did Harley copy you when they put out the "Fat Bob"? One question. where did you stash your electronics, seeing you have aftermarket risers?

xllent01,

What a clean looking ride. The lines are all XL custom. I've only read about "Deals Gap". It sounds really cool, and by the looks of the photo, very scenic. I like the paint. The ghost flames look weel done, along with your custom made solo seat. Thanx for posting your photo.
