Triumph Changes

I changed and added a few things to my Triumph last week. I added a fly screen to the front and a tachometer to the dash. I put knee pads on the gas tank and changed the exhaust pipes which made it sound and perform much better.

New Gas tank

I didn't like the original gas tank so I changed it this weekend to a Indian Larry style tank. I have a fender on order and I will install that next. I also want to do something different with the seat but I haven't decided what yet.

New Project Bike

I have started a new project bike. I got it setup in rolling chassis form this weekend. Its a bobber frame with a springer front-end. I got a 74ci shovelhead motor with a S&S super E shorty carb, harley 4 speed kicker transmission and a Primo 3 inch belt drive primary.  

More Paint

I painted the air cleaner on the bobber bike and also changed the seat to a black one. I think it looks better this way. Every time I think its done I end up changing something on it so hopefully its done now. At least for now.

New Bike

I got a new bike mostly for commuting to work with.  Its a 2008 Triumph Bonneville. A really fun bike to ride.

Paint is Done

I finished painting the gas tank and fender. It came out Ok for rattle can spray paint, just a few mistakes. 

New Paint

A very productive weekend. I installed direct tv in the workshop/garage and I painted the fender on my bike. It turned out pretty good so now I can try the gas tank.

Riding is fun

I love riding the new bike.

Garage is Done

I finished setting up the garage today and it looks great. We had the dad's over for a BBQ and then Corinne got some pics of me on my new bike. Its so much fun to ride.

Great Weekend

The barn was finished on Saturday its huge. Corinne and I went for a ride on the bikes with Lori and Terry to Tom's Farms.

Barn Progess

Here are some pictures of the barn being built.

New Barn

Today our new barn is being built in our back yard. When its done I will be able to store a couple of the bikes in there and Corinne will use the rest for her horse tack.
Tomorrow I will move my tools and the rest of my workshop into our garage. I can't wait to be able to start my new bike.

On the Road

  The license came for my home built bike so I took it for its first legal ride. What a blast, I can't believe I built it and it runs.

  I have also been in the process of redoing our home garage so I can move my workshop from our warehouse to our home. I have added a  220v outlet for the tig welder and added more 110v outlets. I painted the walls and the garage floor so now I have to wait a few days to let the floor dry and I can move all my tools in.   

First Build Finished

Its finally done! I am just waiting for the license to come and I can go out and terrorize the streets.
