Brains BSA David bird Hardtail

Welded on this BSA David Bird hardtail for Brain and added some gussets on the bottom frame rails for added strength. I have gotta tell you David Bird Makes one hell of a product. His welds are flawless and the damn hardtail fit like a glove to the stock loop which made it real easy to get a good weld . Hats off to Mr.Bird for putting out such a good product.

Nathans Modified Tc bros Hardtail

Nathan brought me this hardtail with his front loop which had been cut up by the previous owner. After leveling the motor and frame in the jig. I noticed there was a huge gap where seat stays welded into the stock frame loop . So I called up Nathan and he brought over the installation instructions ,sure as shit it says in the instructions that the frame rails wont look straight but when you put it into a roller it would look straight. Right on,!! Except the fact that the motor would be leaning back, Not good for the oiling lines at the front of the motor and the floats in the carbs.
Any ways It was an easy fix I stuck the seat stays in the bender and bent them down six degrees. which leveled everything out. This also took away the funky steepness of the hartail also.
once all that was done I welded in the seat cross member and the bottom rail cross member and reinstalled the engine stay cross member that the previous owner had cut out.

Aluminum Speed Way Tanks for XS650

Back at the tail end of May I had finished up Limey's looped 2" under frame and I talked him into letting me make some split aluminum Speed wayish tanks for his build. I hand formed these over some MDF forms which really sucked for my arm's. Had some some snags with getting my frame mounting bungs made( I really need to get a lathe) But I finally had some time to finish them up. Took a few pics with them up against the Salt Racer just so you can get a feel for how they are going to look on the XS650 frame.They aint perfect but they sure look cool!!!

KING RAT

Just finished up this seat for Paul in San Antonio, I meet Paul at The Working Man's Motorcycle and Art Show in June he really dug my leather work and commissioned me to do this seat for his super custom rat bike named.... You guessed it "KING RAT". I opted for the grey Rat Fink for this since Paul's going to let the bikes frame and tins rust out naturally.
Well that's it ,Thanks for looking .

"Lucha por vida"

Bracket for Brass Balls Seat Shocks

Fabricated this simple bracket for a set of Brass Balls Seat Shocks. These are going on the Rat Fink seat on the previous post. Since the customer already had the Seat Shocks and the bottom of the Rat Fink Seat was already wrapped in leather the simple solution was to make this bracket to weld the shock mounting tabs to.
