Yep airbox is great and I think you could help a lot of folks buy selling them. Great job, love the seat and tank colours and overall look you achieved.

Thanks!

I really considered selling the airboxes. But, it takes a lot of time to get measurements from different bikes and to make the airbox itself. In the end I think I would have to charge more than most people would like to spend.

Perhaps I'll post a feeler in the classifieds and see if people would really want them...

Before; $500 Barn find Norton Atlas, complete with HD backbone welded in and stretched fork tubes.


After: Two and a half years, and countless hours of fab, polish and wiring later.


I will try to start a thread detailing all the work, as I documented the whole build, start to finish. UNtil then, you can check out the build thread here: http://www.chopcult.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34412 (hope it's ok to post other forums here... I'll remove it if it's not cool... didn't see anything about it on the "rules")

After JAKEYUK's sweet ride, I'm almost hesitant to post my barn build... But it's mine and I built it with the sweat of my grease stained hands while working my full time IT Manager job. I purchased my fixer-upper on Nov 8, 2013. This is what it looked like

Before


After lots of working and a good chunk of money, this is what the bike looked like June, 2014 when I rode it in North GA.
