Josh Part Duece
I do best just letting the build flow from one part to the next. I built the bars first then the rear looked real weird so I opted to mount the fender to the swing arm via a sissy bar. I bent the seat pan some more to get the lines right then put the cover on.
I don't think I have ever done a swing arm mounted fender and it was kind of a booger but it looks could now and is built to with stand some abuse. All that is left is a battery box and wiring, home stretch time.


Boy gets his first taste.
We had a crazy warm day so I dragged the bikes out and let the boy take in the glory
that is two wheels. Pretty funny he just sat there and looked around, I made some motorcycle sounds a shook the bike and he tried to bail off. Good instincts for the future, when in doubt jump off.WEnt a nd rode the Ironhead a little and got it all mucked up but it was worth it.

Josh's Swingarm Jam
Go Faster Stop Better
The theory goes like this. Truck goes faster=Truck stops better. My 51 has a 302 in her so when I slam down the go pedal then press the brake nothing was really happening. That was even after I rebuilt everything. Lucky for me Speedway has these nifty disc conversions. Now the Astro Supremes will fit the front as well.
