JRK; you've got a couple of real beauties there (bike & baby). That's one of the nicest Dyna's on the road...great way to show your craft. I'll be sending more parts your direction this winter. Hope you get some longer periods of sleep w/the little one...cheers!

hahaha Don and Ice send away! don i think we are in the home stretch to get you in now man... let me know when your free!

the floorboards are just the cheap $50 1/2 moon shakers, i ripped off the rubber spacers between them and powder coated everything gloss black, then glued the pad on the main board, i have a complete how to from when i did it on the forum

as far as the local law... i have been pulled over 3x's for the lights... 2x's the cop was asking for my card, and i ended up doing powder and lights on both their bikes... the other was a forum member and wanted to say hello hahahaha (out of the 3 only 1 used lights to get me over the rest just pulled up next to me or followed me into a lot) all nice guys! only ones of my customers that have ever got hell for them are the blue... that is a emergency color though, all my bikes are lit up... all of them, my work horse sport touring is done in amber so i am 50 state legal though

thats awesome!!! thanks man! i am loving every min of it... well now that she is not a slug anymore and knows what is going on hahahaha she is only 3 months and still super tiny, but she LOVES being in the shop around the bikes, every time i walk past mine with her in my arms she reaches out for it! hahaha when we can not get her to stop crying we pop her on my bike and she just smiles... have not started it yet with her around... but that will come...
my mom tells me that when i was a little one every time i would do what i was told or listen that her and dad would put me on the seat of one of his choppers as a reward hahahahaha kind of funny how things come back around... only unlike my dad i am not building bikes in my living room hahahaha!

Hope you had a good ride out. Just a half hour blast keeps me buzzing for days. We all need to ride more but work pays the bills.

Joe,
Your bike is looks awesome. I never get tired of staring at your ride. Your daughter is very beautiful, cherish every moment because before you know it she will be all grown up. My daughter turned 18 this year and I think where did the time go......

JRK, your bike looks great. What kind of headlight do you have? It looks nice and bright.
