Golf Cart of Doom!!!!!

Our good friend Domenic wanted to do up his vintage Harley golf cart in an epic way so I busted the veiling gun out over murano pearl with a sapphire fade, paneled with some baby blue flake. Check it out this weekend at the GNRS!!!!!!!!!

This Vette

Perfect Candy Apple Red Paint. Righteous Injection. This blew my mind earlier tonite at the GNRS. One day I'd like to have a '62 but this 56-57 would be more than welcome in my garage.

More progress

Kiyo got a bunch of stuff back from the polish and powder coater. He was just waiting on the cases which were getting line bored. The front wheel is built, so is the tranny.
Looking sharp!

Eighth straight big twin flathead post...

My friend Gregg put this '48 80" together before anyone else that I hung around with. It's a real goer too, he's got thousands of miles on it and is one of the few bikes to pull off running a 21" wheel front and rear. You might remember it was on the cover over the horse and I think even beat out cole foster at the GNRS.
This for the born loser

Was talking with Righteous Joe about some cylinders for the UL...he's got a 50 horsepower flathead coming together! Evo eater!
Stole these from Joe's blog


joe's hot rod flathead
i'm too tall but looks fun

Ultimate Flathead Chopper

I think Grant is so spunout in the land of flats and pans that he has overlooked one of the ULTIMATE CHOPPERS of all time, I dare anyone to deny it. This hit the cover of Big Bike in 1970 and featured a lot of D&D products. I sure hope Frank and Rich can chime in on this one. Not your typical 1970 build but probably started way before Easy Rider hit the silver screen.

At the Cycle Lodge we were recently talking about what he'd do with his panhead motor project. Now methinks he should can the pan and get Far Out with a Flathead. What do you think True Believers???

Big Twin Flatheads on the brain now...

wow, couldn't sleep last night thinking about the UL flathead....so much to consider.......
Not sure i could even afford to do a correct resto...bitchin though..


Yo Leighton! I believe i wrote the article on Jeff's flathead. Miss this thing,. 


i took the photos of Scott Craig's Moon Cricket UL so long ago i don't have them on my current hard drives...an out take with the Atwater Playboy 


I took this of my friend Mark Drews in Yokohama this year of him and his big twin flathead...did you know that this motor was in the bike Scott Craig built? Fun Fact, Scott parted his bike out after trying to sell it...
And this! So rad! Just as a matter of coincidence, it's a pic by Michael Lichter and i literally had been emailing him about totally unrelated things minutes earlier.

Last Night at Psychedelic Tendencies

Lots of Bikes, cool people, and great art. Some real David Mann art hanging across from Keith Weesners latest and greatest and a collection of tanks rivaled only by Gak's collection at Hawgholic. I love choppers.
