Before and After





The Sprint came out so nice that its easy to forget that it was a dirt bike in its previous life.
I have to admit, I wouldn't mind scrambling through the woods on one with all of the torque and throttle you need. Makes me want a original 350SS .

Allot of killer bikes at Cafe Racer Ypsi last night

Lots of creativity on the 2 shown on the right. Travis just tied up the one on the far right, he hand laid a carbon tank, tail and built a killer set of pipes for it. The second to right Honda had the coolest patina to it, almost looked like gun blued metal that had just the right amount of wear to make it look well used. Both had some unique bits to them and allot of soul. Travis, Keep up the hard work , Its nice to see someone else in the D that's not afraid to fuckin do it.

Weekend Stuff


Top: Fuel Injected Harley tank fuel pump block off that I made for a good customer . A while back I made him the 333 version and now he is looking to sell this bike so he commissioned the DYNA cover on the right.
Bottom: 71 T350 Suzuki, this think is straight from Tennessee . This guy was actually on his way up, moving into the Detroit area with this in a trailer behind him when he spotted Jeff on a RD250 that I helped him with. This guy flashed his lights at him until he pulled over and Jeff gave him my number. It just has some hefty carb trouble and needs a basic tune up and battery.
On another note , We are all meeting at the coffee shop in Plymouth tonight to see Team G unveil their latest bikes. Greg's silver sufferer sporty and Gabby's Guzzi that she calls " Pow!" . Gabby did a beautiful job on the Guzzi and Greg's sporty is uncompromising in every detail. Hope to see you there!
