The sissy way out...

So it has been a while... Not tons to report. We are kind of at that stage where big substantial "visual" things aren't happening on the bike. I did hack off the rear fender and we machined some spacers to get it mounted. Then we took our twisted hex stock and after much deliberation about a sissy bar, came up with the low-pro wrap around design. Going to look sweet all brassed out and antiqued. The boys wanted the big 60's sissy bar but it just didn't look right to me on this bike. We got the headlight/taillight design figured out, and ordered the front brake master cylinder and grips. Merlin is working on our suicide foot clutch conversion and I am trying to design a seat pan. 

Got a call from S&S. The new knucklehead should be here next week!

That bike looks better than a plate of Diego's chicken tacos.

Why does it not surprise me that you would be interested in something called a "sissy" bar. Girl.
