Bob
bought a chopped 97 Softail Custom... Very Cool paint,
setup as a hard tail, wild pipes... But he really wanted more!
The Decision was easy when the support that locked the suspension
broke & the paint got burned right off the rear fender!!
|
So we started, and while Bob wanted the baddest bike on the block,
he really wasn't sure what that was. So together we decided on
a 240 Rear tire kit, D&D Sheetmetal...
Starting to turn into something!!
We then turned to the engine... 'I have to beat my son on his Duece..'
he said... No problem!
Head work, 590 lift cam, some killer Grumpy's
pipes (Tailhooks they are called!), a Crane ignition, and now he waits
for his son at the next stop sign!!!
Next was the Paint Scheme!! These pictures don't do the "Eye Candy"
paint job any justice.... You see, Bob is in the Heavy Equipment biz,
so he designed a scheme that had three different ghost pics with
bulldozers, earth movers and the Grim Reaper; another one of the reaper
with a naked lady, and on the front fender, a skeleton... All this ghosted into a blood red
base coat that looks as deep as the ocean. Thanks Rene for the great work!!
We rewired the entire bike, used OMP Controls on the Ness bars and used
a set of Performance Machine 'Monaco' Wheels. The rear brake is set inside the
pulley (They said it could not be done) and the bike is lowered a tad. Thrasher made
a 2 up seat for us, and we put on some pegs for his wife.... This baby draws some stares!!
