Steve
started building this bike some time ago. He got a Midwest
Softail Frame, and some other parts... Then he came in and we started
getting him some other pieces. When the Beautiful Performance Machine
Wheels arrived, Steve brought the rolling chassis in and it never left until
it was done!!
We decided to use D&D Sheetmetal and make this a Lowrider with the
long rear fender and a set of Legends Air Shocks. A Polished
Revtech Powertrain kit was gathered and installed. We used some European Handlbars & Controls
(Not a single wire on the bars!) We started installing the 200 Rear tire
and PM Left side brake when we found out
that the frame was made for a 180 !!! OOPS!! Remember we did not get him
this frame...
So we took the wheel apart and started turning the beautiful chrome
hubs down in the lathe... good thing it worked or we would have wasted
a killer wheel!!
Steve owns a body shop so the paint and moulding were his job. He laid
down this 'Better wear sunglasses' Green, and it really shines. The fender is so
long and low, that we had to turn the Yaffe Tailight upside down to clear!!
Keep an eye out for 'Steve's Slammer'.
