Hank doesn't reveal where he is from, maybe too far for Eureka Springs since he has never heard of it

Pigs Tail you say,


So is it time to pack yet????

Good point sometimes I forget how Grande Texas is.

Pigs Tail you say

Yeah the one with all the left hand turns ...See someone was paying attention

where did you get the seat?

speedfun, It is a Darkwing http://www.hotwingglass.com/ scroll back to page #4. I trimmed it a little to get the look you see. Glad to have you on board. Ric

Thanks for the larger pic. Nice to be able to see the fine print.
Very cool indeed.

Thanks, hit this link http://www.ngwclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=34004 WF has one for you.

Ric you are a very skilled craftsman / mechanic. Wow! Great job.

I have just one question with no criticism implied. Why not use the martini shakers? To my mind they evoke vintage. That is not to say that the HD muffs don't look good cuz they do. I was just wondering about the thinking behind your choice.

Dang that front fender cutdown was about the coolest thing I've ever seen. I could not even begin to imagine it. You will win much admiration from everybody who appreciates good work.

Well this little bump makes me ask, "How are you healing, Ric?" Are you able to ride yet?

macmusick; Why not use the martini shakers

Thanks Mac, well I guess if had a choice at the time I'd have used a set of Norton Commando muffs. Cocktail shakers ? Just never thought about it. Hmmm.. The HD quieters are the 22''ers, came cheap and have good chrome and a nice tapered tip. Oh yeah, and a good smooth tone.

ericheath; Are you able to ride yet?

Motorcycle, yes. Bicycle? just getting back to it. I rode Eureka Springs. All good except for head wind buffeting coming home. That left me sore for a while, but I'm getting back to it. Even did some fab work on the HOTT SL this week. Look for some new posts. Thanks

Hi Ric,

It was nice to meet you today at Luckenbach. Your bikes look amazing...you did a great job on both of them.

Now I must get going on the restoration/"cafe lite" of my 76!

Walt

Thanks for stoppin' by Walt. Good chatting with you. Bring that cafe lite '76 next year !



I'm usually a last minute kinda guy, but this year I got there early. It was nice to have time to clean the 'ride in' off.

What sunnbobb said....

I've been checking out this site on and off for just a couple weeks and finally decided to register so I could comment on this build. Very nice work, attention to detail is excellent. Classy build. Later.
