@WhiskeySandwich thanks man! And you’re damn close. It’s the lowbrow branded hardtail. 3 inch stretch, 1 inch drop if I remember right.
-
@EvoChoppin yup, thats the same one i have on my Ironhead! i think its manufactuered by Gasbox in Ohio. Great setup!
did you paint it yourself? dig the color
-
@WhiskeySandwich oh right on! It’s a real well made piece. I actually like the geometry of the frame a lot more since hard tailing it. A lot less cramped up than the stock setup.
And yeah man that was my first crack at a spray gun paint job. Was originally just gonna be one solid colour but I got too ambitious when I was sanding the clear coat so I had to teach myself to airbrush to cover my sins haha

@NickD said in Motorcycles:
@SFMCfranky Mrs NickD is from very near Nottingham and we live about 30 miles away from there. Does he still have a Notts accent?
Not that I’m an expert on regional English accents, but yeah, he sure sounds like a tea sippin’ limey to me.

@WithBongInHand that’s awesome dude! Best of luck with it! Have you got your eye on a particular bike yet?

@WithBongInHand @BenBWH Congratulations to the both of you. The freedom of riding on two wheels beats a car any day of the week and so very happy I made that decision years ago. Be careful, watch your surroundings, and always and I can’t stress always enough to expect the unexpected. Most drivers are idiots…some will say all

@NickD thanks man! At the moment yeah a few! Started off thinking Royal Enfield, possibly interceptor. The more research I’ve done I’ve swung toward Triumph, a Bonny or speed twin! Am currently fixated on a Kawasaki z650rs but of course this is all based on looks, reviews and vibes! Am fully expecting everything to change once I can actually test drive one! Any suggestions?
-
@BenBWH Oh you already know! Probably an Iron 1200, though I’m not ruling out a Bonnville just yet.
-
@goosehd Thanks man and I’ll certainly heed this advice. Other drivers being idiots has been the main reason I’ve put it off for so long.

@EvoChoppin yeah that was the best weld-on I could find and it’s done great since 2019. I suck at paint and would love to get an airbrush for my next project. Gonna get the Gasbox full frame for my rubber-mount sporty and I’ll probably try that.
You’re running a carb on that?
