mutiny

bit of progress on the deck. have got some box section welded in and a new panel on the front. got some wheel wells welded back in. i plan on decking it out in hardwood so wont be putting any sheet metal in. progress is slow unfortunately as i have a lot on my plate but i cant wait to get it into the spray booth. there's progress elsewhere but i haven't taken too many photos at this stage so will update later

i wasnt really sure if i would bother posting this on here as there doesnt seem to be a lot of interest in harleys but ohwell.

picked it up the day after the second lock down, its a 1992 fxr with a good few ks on it. here it is the day i got it 

first thing to do was to get it a wof which it cleaned clean sheet, stoked. after getting over how bloody expensive harley parts were i went and ordered a mid control kit, around 800 dollars later they showed up from the land of freedom. i then took the cheesy silver vinyl off the tank, it was put on there to mimic a factory colour scheme it came in but it just wasnt what i wanted, i had the intentions of painting it black but will stick with the blue for awhile. obviously the seat and sissy bar had to go so ordered a mustang seat and god damn its comfy.

swapped out the stock risers for a set of 6inch straight pull, sat my arms in a much nicer position buy may build a set of custom bars at some point

ive spent quite a bit of time getting it running super nice but will upgrade the carb in the next few months as its getting a custom made 2 into 1 exhaust made by a local chch harley guru. tank looks pretty bare at the moment but brought some badges to put on temporarily but unsure if i like em, anyone got any thoughts?

anyway enough talking heres a couple picks of how it sits now

So I've still got this thing. I put it up for sake a couple weeks before lockdown and got bombarded with absolute fuckwits as per trying to sell something on Facebook. I got so sick of it in the end that I didn't want anyone else to own it so I decided to pull finger instead. 

So this lock down has been a whole lot of making do with what I have so I've been doing a bunch of rust repairs so the cab forward is now rust free and sitting in primer. It goes to paint in a couple weeks which I am looking forward to. Have decided to go white .

While the truck is away getting painted I'll set to on the wellside which is going to be a massive undertaking 

Had a productive day today. Got the chassis swapped over. Damn it was ghetto. 2 small jacks and 4 axle stands haha. C notched chassis is up for sale if anyone wants it. 300 bucks bare

Thread dredge from page 6 haha.  Progress has been very slow on this.  Lack of room is just a killer. Tonight I pulled the 2l out. One step closer to pulling the cab off the c notch chassis . At least with the motor and box out it will be a little lighter to push in and out of the garage. That's all the progress for now. So here's a boring pic for a boring build
