Seriously. I can get ALL the photo evidence to corroborate my claims...I could care less if you believe any of it though, I just hoped to save some people from getting ripped off. I had thought about throwing some pics of the unpainted underside of the fender up on the JJ in your jock shop thread. I do spend some time there and don't want to see people get less than promised. You rode that thing around like that for a year? Got pretty lucky...John seemed less than interested when I talked to him once about the brake pedal mounting bracket breaking off the frame. Wanted to match the paint after I repaired and added some gussets (why not at first build.) It broke at an unnecessary butt weld on thin-walled crew tubing with a solid slug and only 1/2 the joint even touched with electricity. ANY decent fabricator will see several problems in the last sentence. As for going by anonymous, what benefit do I get out of putting these things out? If I were drumming up business by saying these things, then I would identify myself. Being a smaller shop and seeing other smaller shops getting screwed around by having to fix these "big name" builds in the past has forced my caution. Tell you what Nate, I will introduce myself if I ever see you in person. Us Hoosiers don't take kindly to those who sully the good reputation...even if I don't live there anymore.

I also made a topic just with pics of how the get bent now is and they still don't post pics ( I also sent the pics to ardcore choppers so I think you saw them) greetings luc Hi Nate, when you made a topic with pics like I did of the get bent, then they don’t want to post it.
