Cool idea for a paint job
I picked up this Bic lighter at a gas station earlier and think this would be a cool concept for Wes to delve into. I've always loved eastern Asian artwork.

ironhead Bobber project 2012
Further welding strengthens the tail.... (I mean, this is a pretty critical component of the bike, right? That's what we thought)...

Here's more pics of Wes back in November/December 2011 welding some very creative exhaust pipes... we'll show the finished product later...

ironhead Bobber project 2012
Ironhead Bobber project 2012
This is what we ended up with by late-summer/fall of 2011. A great, fun ride, but with lots of custom, hand-made parts. Added a 23-tooth countershaft sprocket, replacing the stock 21-tooth sprocket, which allowed for more comfortable cruises at highway speeds. Averaged about 35-40 miles per gallon.

Here is our '75 Sporty, back in June 2011, Rebuilt transmission and corrected a few other mechanical errors. This was the starting point for the Bobber project.
Winter Projects 2012
Beginning in November 2011, we began one of our Winter Projects, complete chopper remake of a 1975 Harley Davidson Sportster. Project was to include: stretching frame by adding hardtail, fabrication of low profile fenders, oil tank, gas tank, etc.
