Parts ready for paint..


Picked up some parts today, ready for paint after a few hours discussion.. think we came up with a pretty cool idea.. :-) This will be built to fit two engines.. one ordinary Harley Davidson and one 140 HP S&S.. It will never be street legal with the S&S, so it has to fit the original Harley too when shown to the government to get license plates.. I will also make the leather solo seat.

Top Motorcycle Blog Award



Hell yea, I won!! Or did I loose.. I was picked out as one of twenty, to be spammed by "Top Motorcycle Blog Award" from Online Schools.. It has absolutely nothing to do with motorcycles except placing a link which advertise for online schools.. think of it, they also give away awards to Top Dog Blogs, Top Cat Blogs, Top Bird Blog, Top Insect Blog and hundreds of more silly themes.. some of the blogs that won, wasn´t even about motorcycles! So, if you see any of the awards abow, dont click it, unless you want to be fooled..

They say: "Each judge rates each blog across 20 different attributes, including content, frequency of updates, amount of advertising, length of posts, and readibility." Hmm.. one blog have never posted anything, a few blogs was not about motorcycles.. even one was only advertising for expensive motorcycle innsurance..
