CHAD DIDN'T BUY THIS SPORTY FOR THE SEAT.
My buddy Chad just picked up this 96 XL. Aside from the frame and the motor, everything is up for grabs. If you see anything you like just drop me a line and I will get you setup.

4:30 a.m.
Working on a 5 speed, changing out leaky seals on the trans and primary. Woke up thinking about work and how much I actually need to get done in the next few months, so I got here early and got going on this job.
Perfect start to the day....Pennywise on the stereo, fresh coffee and a nice straight forward job on the lift. I wish everyday started this good.

BRAT STYLE
I really wish there was another name for this kind of bike....every time I say it I hear "Gangnam style" in my head.
Still a cool bike though...

SWEET SIMPLICITY
There are so many wires inside a late model fairing that it's hard to believe chopped bikes can run on 15 wires and less. Sometimes technology doesn't simplify things.

WHY I DO IT...
Yesterday was my families thanksgiving supper, all the usual suspects were there. It is a good mix of friends and relatives, and always a good time.
A close family friend asked me why I do what I do.
Obviously I'm not wealthy from it, and I'm definitely not doing this to watch myself on T.V.
So why?
I do this because there is nothing as satisfying as building a machine, or even parts of a machine, and knowing that you accomplished it completely on your own. Modifying someone else's work is interesting, but not quite the same.
Even the smallest most simple parts can last a lifetime if they are built well.
Honestly, I don't know why anyone wouldn't do this?
