My Softail Build
#14
Thanks guys! ... I have big plans this weekend hopefully will get the frontend on (triple clamps, forks, brakes, risers, bars and hand controls) and then measure out the lengths for the brake, clutch and throttle lines because I have no idea what lengths I am going to need with the new bars.
I also hope to cut custom spacers and mount the rear wheel and measure the length the rear sprocket spacer offset needs to be.
Then lace and true the front wheel and measure and cut custom spacers for it too.
then if I have time I will attempt custom mount my ignition, oil cooler, speedo and coil. I would like to make my gauge cluster all smooth with only my 2" tiny digital speedo.... any ideas where to put the ignition, and larger Jagg oil cooler (i think it is about 4"x8")????????????
I will take pics along the way... and now I am obligated to accomplish atleast something this weekend.... the 4th of July completion date is looking really shakey though...

Awesome, bro! Welcome to the forums! I'm glad you share our obsession, whilst a lot of whipper-snappers your age are still kickin' back on their parents' couch playing X-box. That's probably why you don't have a lot of friends your age, but that would be a good thing, imo. You should hook up with Toastman on here. He is about your age and has some of the most entertaining posts on here. Has a sick bike, too.
Can't wait to see your finished product. I did mine last year. Ongoing, but "finished" for now until I get more money to put into 'er.
I gota ask, tho: why aren't you using DAD'S no-interest credit card for your build?
