I can see my future

The Ironhead is out and on its way to Japan, so now its time for the next. The '01 sportster that I picked up earlier this summer will be making its way to the chopping block. I will be building a 'cafe racer' inspired bike from it, for a friend.

It still in the concept phase, but here is where my line of thinking is.

---

No matter where the top half of the build ends up, I think the engine cases will get cut down, the oil bag and battery box will be remade to be more pleasing, high and tight 'scrambler' pipes, and probably some clip on bars(comfort depending, no rear sets because of wanting to keep it a 2up bike).

This is going to be a fun (and fast) one!
