Installed a set of SE 103" pistons and jugs that I had powdercoated by Joe the Powder Pro, and had my heads ported by WFOLarry.


Also switched to a D&D Fatcat, swapped the control cables, installed a DK outlaw A/C, Drag Specialties front brake rotor, and a Barnett heavy duty clutch spring.
man that looks great man! Larry does some great work! he did mine as well!!

Thanks for all the feedback! I'm pretty happy with how everything turned out. I was going for a modern Shovelhead-era Super Glide vibe. Seems like it took forever to get done, but we had a long winter in Minnesota so I had plenty of time to figure out what I wanted to do. Spent way more money than I planned, but thats how these projects always go. I don't really have many other things I'd like to do, other than maybe some suspension upgrades.

My iPhone pictures really don't do the paint justice. I've got a friend who's a photographer so one of these days I'll get some higher quality photos posted.

This year was especially long. I tore it down early November and finished it mid May. I only missed out on a few weeks of riding. Last year I was riding mid March. Minnesota is awesome for 5 months of the year.
