Full tilt 2012

Full Tilt Chopper Show

I didn't go but Tim sent me pics from the event so I am posting them on his behalf. Wish I could have made it. That's two years in a row I have missed this event. One Bday party and a wedding to blame. Damnit. Enough whining, enjoy the pics.

WHAT A TANK!

I found this gem on Craigslist the other day. I had to jump on it fast as it was a huge score. Got it for $75 bucks. Has new caps and a new petcock.

Mock up of the CB

Here is a mockup of the CB750 with a king sportster tank on it. I like the lines but I found a gem on Craigstlist. more to come later on that.

CB750 frame work

So I have been wanting to extend the back bone on my frame and started looking for steel. I wanted to slug it and then extend it about 4 to 5 inches. I figured I would have a hard time finding the exact size tubing I needed. Pops and his keen eye suggested some black pipe (gass pipe not grass pipe)... At the time I didn't know what to think. I should have trusted his wisdom. Well I was working on my backrest and I was digging in the welding cart when out of no where I found a 5-inch stick of gas pipe, the perfect size... (thank you Heath!) So I milled down the threads and PERFECTO!

Another CB

My brother spotted a CB out on the road and chatted the guy up. I wish he would have got this guys number. I really want to see this thing in person. Maybe he will be at the Bearded Lady motorcycle and freak show. One can only hope.
