Work is a drag...

...wish I could say I was the guy out front, but the mud in my teeth tells a different tale.

REC(tom) SUPPLY suCks Ass

Is it so fucking difficult? I mean I ask you. Quick as I can tell it,
went to rec. needed chain and sprockets for the honda. Why do I ALWAYs get stuck with the biggest douche of them all (you know the guy. never leaves his stool, hat backwards, looks mildly retarded). Hooked me up with a chain and sprockets for $100 less than Powerhouse Honda. Great. haagh. (big sigh) but... The chain is 4 links too short. So Either the catalogue doesn't even have accurate info in it OR this guys is actually dumber than I thought. Went back today got a longer chain for even less money. Fine. HAAGH (BIG SIGH) went to install, no master link. Call RECtom, "There's a screw-up with the fix to your screw-up, screw-up." "Oh well, ah, we don't have any master links in stock.......(long pause) I can probably get one by Thursday!"

and on and on. Someone remind me on a weekly basis, please, that I do NOT want to go back there.

dreams of NHRA


Modern Chop Monday

A lot of us feel the need to dis anything post-cone shovel when it comes to custom harley's. And with the gaudy, often outlandish, OCC Theme bike claptrap, often sporting post-shovel HD's or ULTIMA or big S&S's, who can blame us. That said, I couldn't help but think that there's got to be someone out there building nice, clean, simple modern customs. So with that I propose a Modern Chop Monday. I'll try and find some builders and bikes out there that aren't trying to make a "retro bobber" out of new bikes or copying the over the top stretched designs of West Coast Choppers or OCC. So Here's the first, although to be honest it turns out this crossbones is a photochopped image. Found Here.

If you know of any tasteful modern customs send them my way and I'll post them on Mondays.

Frazetta Fairwell Friday

Well I finally made a deal on the Tracy body and it's shippin' out today. It's a shame that I'll never get to build the Frazetta Digger I had planned, but the Shovel project won't finance itself. This is as close to the vision as I ever got.


Here's a pic of what I had in mind, anyway.
