The musings of a cantankerous over the hill greasemonkey who, though already old, is rather old for his age. I'll bust greasy knuckles out in the garage or argue politics with anyone who will stand for it....

Shovel on the lift....


The "monster shovel" is on the lift for a little work to get it on the road. The 5 gallon tanks custom painted by Isaac are off to be returned and the new speedo is on.


Here's the "new 3.5 gal tanks that I picked up from cuppy at Wauseon.


Isaac's neat tanks ready to return...


And some sweet old FL fenders from Doug. Rear may go on soon, but I will probablt wait for winter to go FL with the front end.


Shop is still a mess, but it's my kinda mess...

A fresh project....

I had some frustration getting a title and some other issues with my purple FLH. I sold off the sidehack and then once I finally got the title I dumped the bike. Cool old bike, but we weren't meant to be.

Picked up the bike I should have bought in the first place. BarryW's 70 FL with a new 98" S&S shovel motor . Virtually a new 40 year old motorcycle.





I'm pretty excited...
