      @WhiskeySandwich I like the stance you have on this. Are those 10.5" shocks in the back? What size fork tubes as well, +4, +6? Im in the middle of a sportster build right now as well.

        @94atromero thanks bud. Yeah they're Burly 10.5" i think with +4 tubes. shoulda got +6 though, i'll probably swap with my bro in law cuz he's a shorty and it puts him on his tippy toes. Make sure you post pics of your build!

          @WhiskeySandwich really glad to hear that’s the exact setup I’ve been looking at. I was thinking +4 as well since I’m only 5’ 2” with about a 30” inseam. Pics soon, as I just finished up my tank.

            I’m late sharing the announced trip pics. Trip got delayed several days due to a mechanical problem in our friend’s Yamaha Super Tenere, which also shortened the second half of the trip.

            Roadside break between Sucre and Tarija during our 2nd day on the road.

            Sunday all-day barbecue at our host’s beautiful home in Tarija. Right at the foothills of ‘serrania Aguarague’.

            Visited Pilaya canyon, about 80 km outside of Tarija. Pilaya is reported as the 6th deepest canyon in the world at 3000 mts.

            The journey is the objective.

              But…condors are the stars of the show here at Pilaya. We watched 3 condors riding the thermal currents looking for food while there. Awesome bird!

              The journey is the objective.

                A great bike deserves a decent backdrop, right?

                Riding this scenery between Sucre and Tarija is spectacular. Good pavement, empty road, fantastic scenery, cheap tasty food and a perfect 18 degC temp…can’t ask for much more.

                This old water-driven stone mill used for grain was very cool to visit.

                The journey is the objective.

                          Picked this beautiful 1200 custom off market place for a screaming deal. Always wanted to build a chopper so figured it was a great starting point.

                          IMG_3175.jpeg

                          Found a peanut tank on my local classifieds and decided to try my hand at painting it.

                          IMG_0087.jpeg

                          IMG_0089.jpeg

                          IMG_0095.jpeg

                          Hit it with the airbrush. Some lines aren’t the best, but that’s okay.

                          IMG_3186.jpeg

                          IMG_3199.jpeg

                          Tank installed with a wire tuck as well.

                          IMG_3216.jpeg

                          Up next will be extended damper rods, fork extensions, 10.5” rear shocks, and finish making a sissy bar. Far from done but I love the process.
