We just picked up a set of these new arlen ness double left side brakes for a bagger that is getting built up. I'm not sure how i feel about them yet. I really dig the idea, but i'd like to see something racier on the styling.

Midnight rider
Making a key for the stunt bike, old ford keys filed down work the best.
"hey grab that gas tank and pour gas all over my bike.... or in it... whatever.
Near the end of our 100 miler night harlan ran out of gas, so i shot up to the station and bought a gatorade bottle full for him. It was a pretty good night overall, only saw a few deer, hung out and talked to some old timer at a gas station for a bit, at some chocolate and drank red bulls, watched a jumbo jet get lost for a while, parking lot stunt show at 3 a.m. and frozen hands. I love motorcycles sometimes.
Sewing machine
Someone was just gonna scrap this thing cause they were too dumb to figure out how to work it. So my buddy Harlan picked it up for free.99 .Now normally i wouldn't consider sewing machines super interesting, but just have a look at the inner workings of this bastard. Gears, levers, tiny mechanical parts. Pretty damn cool if you ask me.

Bison Machine
Friday night was kind of crazy. Steve and i pointed the van down to detroit at about 10 o clock to go catch bison machine play at the fourth floor. So we are heading down there and we have no fucking clue what this place looks like, where it is exactly, nothing. Other than the text from tom saying "it's a white door down on gratiot and the mailbox says fourth floor". So we are wandering around trying to find this joint and all of the sudden Ta-Da! we find it and start the trek up the stairs to this place. Its all in this rundown shitty building that is abandoned other than this after hours club. We get up there, find tom, breck, and the boys and start drinking, smoking and making a ruckus. The boys put on one hell of a show, Breck was a just wailing on his kit and caught his knucks on the rim once or twice splattering the drums with blood. It was fucking sweet. After the set breck and i took off to go adventure the building and go up to the roof, this pissed off the chick who was putting this thing on for one reason or another and tried to kick us out. So we just went and explored other buildings, that last pic is of breck making his way back down from the roof of the building in the picture. I ended up pretty drunk on an empty belly and crashed out in the van for a few hours freezing my ass off. I think we made it back home around six thirty in the morning. A good night for sure.
Tattoo Day
sparky plug
Layout Done
Today was tattoo day for myself, harlan and baloh. All three of us were beat up, tired and i was hung over as hell from the festivities down in Detroit the night before. Harlan got himself a sweet black and grey NGK plug, Baloh started in on his half sleeve which is sick as fuck, and i got myself a nice new clover and some shading on my word of the day banner. If anybody wants some good ink for a super reasonable price hit up Jeff at 386 334 5330. His shop is in Howell Michigan.

Test ride 26" FL
Went for a cruise on this yesterday, and by cruise i mean 110 mph down our "test" road. To all the haters that say this type of mod makes the bikes unrideable i say "haha you guys are idiots" this bike handles quite nicely and is stable as hell, sure it has a huge turning radius and moving it around the shop is a bitch but that's my problem now isn't it.
2000 FXDX
97" Axtell motor, cnc cut heads, S&S 640G cams, HSR Mikuni carb, Bassani 2-1 pipe, yeah this should haul ass. Time for some break in miles and then wheelie time. We also did floating rotors front and back, powdered the trees and turn signals, added the 1/4 fairing and a few other lil touches.
Van Stuff
Our buddy Ronnie Danger is doing up this van for a friend of his, harlan took some pics of the van and a really cool winged skull at his place. Gull wing door, big motor, smooth lines, looking killer.
Ironhead sportster for sale
Super clean 73 ironhead with just under 6k on the clock.
The bike sat for a good ten years or so in this guys garage after his brother in law ran it with an intake leak and scored the cylinders up.
So Last fall Ernie brought us the bike to resurrect it. Last summer he rode the bike all around and up to the upper peninsula and decided that 1. He was happy to be riding again after many years out the saddle and 2. He wanted a bigger bike. So he picked up a built the the hilt wideglide and the time has come for the sporty to go to a new home.
She has an all fresh top end with Kieth black hypereutectic pistons with the improved pop up design that allows for a much more complete fuel burn and makes these motors a bit more peppy.
Lower end checked out to be very nice, inspected the oil pump and replaced all the oil lines. All the electrical checks out, brakes are in good shape
New metzeler tires front and back.
New chain
New king tank with matching black cherry paint.
New throw over bags.
