92 Sporty

[Boof]

Just started building a 92 Sporty for my mate. 5 degree rake wide glide front end, new black rims on the way. Engine going out to 10:1 wiseco 1200 kit with Super e S&S carb. Fender is softy type and vance and hine longshot exhaust to go on amongst quite a few other bits. See how it goes, not a cafe, but fun to build all the same.

So confusing, I have a mate called boof who loves harleys. Long way from madurah though.

Hardtail it!!!

What's involved in doing that?
New frame/welded swingarm replacement?

New frame/welded swingarm replacement?

It's simple:

#1 - Purchase weld on hardtail section:
Hardtail Sections - KansasKustom.com
|||:::::LED SLED CUSTOMS 2010:::::|||

#2 - Cut off useless gay swingarm section and throw in the bin

#3 - Weld on hardtail section to rear of frame, while retaining front half of frame and numbers in the neck

#4 - Rule the world...

Stick with the mid controls, run the rear tyre at about 15 pounds and it will be perfectly comfortable.

Coming along slowly but getting there. Few more cases to polish, slip the cams back in. Motor done with Wiseco 1200 Kit and the carb is now on. Waiting on long shot exhaust and black rims. Tank and fender away for paint and graphics. Wiring should be fun, new digital speedo as well to go in. Sits low with the 5 degree rake and short shocks. Anyone know of a good sparky that would attempt this for a sum of money?

The shed looks a mess, but that was after the owner turned up with an esky full of fine hops.
