YOU SUCK!

Put a "Girder" front end on istead of the springer and I am in LOVE!

I wanted to build one on the "NEW" a softtail frame. That was when "Jammer" had that frame before Harley bought the patent. My plans were almost exactly like the pictures you posted. Only I was gonna use a Girder.

At the time I had a 1979 80ci (Shovel) "Low Rider" I had built. It had been wrecked and I re-built it on a new frame from a pile of parts in boxes. (Basket case)

The one before that was also a "Basket case" 1976 Bi-Centenial Sporty I had built.

Needless to say I have not had a "Store bought" Harley so far. I always built mine. (And several for friends too)

I sold the Low Rider back in the late 80's with the intention of building another one for me. But things kept getting higher priority. Of course the fact Cathy quit riding with me after the blowout kind of took a lot of the pleasure away. (Rear tire at a bit OVER the speed limit ) That was one WILD ride. But I kept us off the pavement and stopped without a scratch on us or the scooter.

As Ralph used to say, ONE OF THESE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice bike, even if it is a HD
That black on black looks very cool.

I guess I don't have to tell you to ride safe but I will.

Having your lifejackets on board and not wearing them is like putting your seatbelt on during a car accident.
