Photoshop

I used a few minutes in photoshop, and colored the headlight, tank and rear fender black. It's always easier to imagine the final result if the parts got a neutral and similar color.

Yesterday Allan gave the bike the name "Pocket Rocket" - who knows, maybe it suits it : )

The tank and the rear fender isn't mountet correctly yet ! - the fender will be shorter !

Engine assembly

During the Christmas I spend a few days at my parents place. Among the heavy loads of Christmas food I found some time to put some of my Sportster engine together - and most of all, fit the frame for the cylinder heads.
I think this was the last frame modifications, all I got left is to mount a new pipe above the engine to stabilize the frame. At least that is just welding, no cutting is left.

I think the bike looks great with an old Ironhead installed;

Merry christmas everyone

Km/H

I just got this old Indian 1919 km/h clock. . . would it be a shame useing it for the bobber project ? yeah...
If anyone can use it for an original Indial, pleace speak up !

I don't got a lot of things to post at the moment. The thing is I have been very busy lately. I have started at the 2nd semester at the Avionic school.
Sorry folks, I'll promis a lot of things is coming up in the future : )

Royal Tattoo

Three days ago I went to a French tattoo artist called Theo. Theo is working freelance, and have lately been working for Royal Tattoo. He made a nice piece of waterproof art at my lower leg.
As you properly know, I like it old school. This is my first tattoo, a kick starter in a traditional look with a modern touch.



















KICK START, OR STAY HOME

Mark Knopler

I have just ordered 3 tickets for Mark Knopfler concert next summer. I'm going with a couple of freinds : )
Nice!

S.C.O

Last week, my freind Nic and I visited his fathers place. His father is in the progress rebuilding an old S.C.O moped.
I think it's getting very cool.

Hanging on the Telephone

"Oh I can't control myself!
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone."

Dogbones

I found out that my bogbone risers are made of bronze. I removed the poor chrome and shined the raw metal.





























Before removal of the chrome:

Sportsters rule!

Elvis rode a K model

IRONHEADS

The cylinder heads for my Ironhead project was painted gray during the reconditioning for about 500miles ago. I didn’t like the gray color that much, then yesterday I painted the heads black.




























Before the paintjob:

Rockerboxes

I just received my "new" rocker boxes for the Sportster project a couple of days ago. I removed the rocker arms, polished the boxes, and installed the arms with new bolts.

Before polish

Firestone

Today I went to Wrench Monkees' workshop in Copenhagen to by myself a new tyre. I got myself a nice classic 4.00-18" Firestone Deluxe champion.

Good deal boys ! Thank you.

Engines

Yesterday I visited my freind Kenneth. He got a nice late shovel project going on, and our freind Stefan just started a Panhead project.

Guess an engine : ) anny educated guesses ?


















Yes, a Panhead showed up !













S&S replica Late Shovel 93"

Sportster parts

New parts on their way.
Today I ordered some parts at ebay for my Sportster project. When I modyfied the frame I decided that It's going to be a Ironhead insted of a Panster as the first plan was.

The first idea about the Panheads on the Sportster engine started becouse I didn't have any Ironheads. NowI ordered some.

ALL PICTURES IN THIS ITEM ARE BORROWED FROM EBAY.

Reconditioned cylinders and pistons.














Rocker boxes, the early model. Theese are included rocker arms
