Sacramento moto swap!
I attended the sac swap today. Saw a bunch of booger eaters and a bunch of chopper parts. Parking was cheap and entry was free! I picked up a handful of original Harley parts including a sweet ass early toe shifter with the original hd rubber. This will be on the shovel soon. Also! I found an 18" hoop for Danny's 73. that son of a bitch owes me big for doing his legwork.

Progress on the shovelhead!
Got a bit of work done tonight! Put on a set of fork boots and a new top triple tree. The top tree was just stock and it seemed like a good idea to shave the headlight mounts and sand the Shit out of it. Looks pretty swell..the handlebars were a set of 12" apes that I narrowed and took 3" out of the uprights. Made a couple slugs for strength and a good buddy welded them up for me. Split the bars in half for use in these sweet ass early risers. GOOD! Shovelhead updates next Thursday!

The knuck!
I finished this today on a good buddy of mine. Took a grand total of around 14-16 hours. It is pretty damn big. Probably like a 3/4 scale.
