This was my first bike build. Bought a shovelhead in a milk crate off c-list and started from there. Frame is a Kraftech around 31 degree rake. The idea on this bike was to build it as cheap as possible and completely by myself. I upgraded the mech points and timing to Dynateck 2ki ignition and dual plugs which made a huge differene.

Hi Im Correy and his is my bike ,bought this bike a few years back ,nothing held together ,motor shat it self ,someone used nyloc nuts as rod nuts, so every thing got torn apart ,including relationships,
I had more time than cash ,and what little cash i made from making and selling sunglasses,i put straight back in my bike,
with the help of a good friend now ,who's built more motors than i've had hot dinners ,he showed me how to build my motor ,
nothing was spared ,crank was balanced to 73% ,all timing gear was drilled out and lightened ,filed the cases out to fit a 21 front tooth sprocket,did all the fabrication in a room the size of a shitta,so once finished ,for the run in ride, i rode my peice of functional art to the top of New Zealand and back again,didnt miss a beat !My mate named my bike the Silk Purse .
(you cant turn a pigs ear into a silk purse )

Oh Hell yea, I don't normally dig green bikes but you nailed it. The whitewalls with the all black wheels really sets it off. Just enough shine to set it off. This bike looks like it was meant to be ridden hard and put up wet.
