Very good looking bike but it's for show not riding regular . Set up like it is it's going to be hard to control and squirrely as my ex-wife , we built a few along those lines over the years and none worked out well riding .
Actually, this bike was built by 2 buddies and myself. (Primer Inc. Pasadena, TX). It rides surprisingly well. We hand built the girder and of course bent and drilled the 1931 Ford front axle to make the backbone. The original frame was a Kraftech. It is a 74 cu. in. Shovelhead motor, foot clutch, jockey shift (5 in a 4 transmission).
With the shock under the seat this bike glides over the road. We fabricated the tank, back fender, oil lines, mounts, etc. Ended up taking 3rd place in the show. My buddy is keeping this bike because it rides so well.

Sounds like solid experience behind everybody involved and the owner set things up to fit him . It's sweet when they come together just right , a lot don't . I've had to rework a few bikes for people who tried on their own and blew it .

It is a sharp looking **** shovels are the **** for a custom bike yeehaa , pass along a well done from another builder please .

Glad to see you're on here. I loved the bike you guys put together and the idea behind it. Definitely had my vote and I'm glad to hear it will be ridden.
