Yellow Fever
Mark Lange, a good friend, shows up after Bike Week with the frame you see in these photos. One small problem.... the whole thing is powder-coated yellow already?!? What?!? How can you build a custom without being able to weld on it, cut on it, or even scratch it? I guess we found out....
The frame is a Daytec (looks like Rolling Thunder Buil it!) with 4" up
and 2 out... Fat Tubes... Nice Piece! We got a T.P 107" Polished Motor
with a matching 5 speed T.P. Trans... We had to send the Spyke front
end back for 2 more inches of length to get the Geometry right... We
Chose the BDL, Top Fuel 2000 Open Belt Drive... This thing is a
monster!!! 3 5/8" Belt with Funny Car Teeth on it, The biggest clutch
I have ever seen on a Harley, Outside Bearing Support, and it looks
Great!!! Cyril Huze Supplied the Art-Deco Air Cleaner and Coil Cover,
Ness the Headlight, Jaybrake made the controls for the feet, while
Eurocomponents got us the OMP Hand Controls and Mirrors.
We had to be careful drilling out the holes for the wiring, but the powder-coat held up for us. Todd Fisher laid down some beautiful graphics right over the Yellow, and grafted some cool L.E.D.s into the rear fender.
Watch for the baby on the road as he passes you!!!
