My latest project Bike

it started off as a stock 1980 Ironhead Sportster. The new frame was built to match the Arlen Ness springer front end. The bars and seat pan were just finished, and the tank is gonna get chopped up a bit.

Out of all the bike builders, I liked Indian Larry's creations the best.

Nice lookin sporty you got there. I still dig the old ironhead chops. I have a 79 i chopped many years ago. I used a paughco frame and a 4 in over fork. Cant ride it much anymore due to bad surgary on my back but its one of the bikes i dont ever plan on selling.Choppers rule!!!! I dig riding my shovelhead bobber but the old sporty gets way more attention when im out on it. Good luck and take care. jonnybiker

hopefully the seat you get is well cushioned.

a friend of mine had a '50 Harley Panhead (rigid frame, foot clutch, suicide shifter) and he hated riding it. he said it hurt his ass too much.
