If a Shovel won't do it, a Pan can!

Nick's Pan from the Garage Co. blog...Sick!

Thinking of foot clutchin, jockey shiftin'.

Deer Santa!

I needed to remove the old brake disc so I can get my wheel powdercoated. The previous owner that ran the wheel used red locktite. I used my trusty Mig welder and welded a bolt to the first bolt in the disc. The heat and bolt did the trick. Once I got the first bolt out, I welded them in a sort of daisy chain. Now I can powdercoat the wheel!

Jiffy stand

Taking care of the little things like the jiffy stand. I took the stocker and cut off the foot of the stand then I went over to a friend's to use his Oxy/Acetylene torch to heat the stand where I had it marked and gently persuaded it to bend in a vise with my trusty 4 lb. hammer. It came out perfect.

Klubfoot's 650 Chopper

One of the nicest XS650 choppers out there. Simple and built to eat up the miles! The flame job is pretty nice too!

Welding

Got my MIG welder running and jumped back on my Sporty build. I think I'm going to call this bike SLO-MO, slow like molasses! I have to get my fender mounted next, build a sissy bar, weld in bungs for my gas tank, and mounts for my oil tank and the frame should be ready for powdercoating!
