Love this bike it was my first chop and not going to be my last got a parts bike for the motor and now have another frame just looking me in the eyes saying “chop me”.Home made sissy bar and fender struts from the “Bung king” check them out they have great stuff. think that Im going to put apes on it this winter right now just enjoying the looks.

    IN the early days of dirt track raceing the Harley team had drab green paint jobs and they had a lot of crashes so it was said that green bikes were bad luck. Later one of the team racers had a pet pig he took with him to the tracks and that ‘s how Harleys got the nick name HOG’S

    The bike handles really good with the rake I do need longer forks though it is a little low in the front. I picked the green for the “bad luck” reason and so far it has held true I have laid the bike down twice”kickstand drags” but got that fixed up and he has not failed me again.
