So how'd it go?
it went great. I was happy with the response I got to the bike considering the greats I was surrounded by. The people who took the time to realize what motor is had were really excited about that. No awards or anything were necessary, nothing but winners.

This shinya kimura bike was fantastic, but this little Indian took the prize in my book.

I have a friend that makes developing boxes for that process, it's amazing. Nice memento.
 
Lumiere tintype in Austin did the photos. Should have the original next week. I like how all the white stands out so much..
 
So, I saw this thing on the BOTM thread and had to figure out what it was. It's all kinds of crazy is what it is. Looks like a blast to ride!

So what's next? You have crazy project dos in the wings?
I need to wire this thing and get it street legal. Then I need to find a shop space big enough for 2 bikes. But after that my next project is a Suzuki gt750 "water buffalo" water cooled 2 stroke triple. Going to make it into a board tracker, or possibly a modern board tracker.
 
Unfortunately, I get a Sherriff's escorts every time I ride it and I've been playing with my 68 mustang and remodeling one of my businesses lately so it's not getting the attention it wants, but few hobbies do.

My homemade in frame battery broke a solder connection and won't hold a charge long when it was working so I think I will add a conventional battery and box. Also service honda is out of the digital ignition so I still have to recharge using a charger. But will all be well soon enough.

But motor, frame, ride ability and fun are all perfect.
 
A cross country traveling film crew stumbled onto me when they were filming a documentary about passions that unite us. I haven't seen the footage yet, but they got some great stills while cruising down the highway.
