Scotchster Exhuast

Making some good progress on the exhaust for the Scotchster.  Going a little crazy with it, but i think it fits the bike perfectly.  And its also proving to be a blast to make.

Its all 304 Stainless, including the canister.  Still have to finish weld it all and make the rest of the canister, but at least it looks like something now.

Slowly

Getting the front area of the shop dialed in... its always a lower priority to actually getting work done... however, its important.. i think..

as such, we have recruited our friends and neighbors Joe and Pat to whip us up a custom wall display.  I'm really excited to have some more usable space that will also be nice to look at.   It will have a lower tire rack incorporated into as well, so i can get rid of that ugly one.

Some other stuff they have done recently:

A family that rides together...

My buddy Jack came by the shop the other day to get an inspection sticker for his Moms new Ural.... all i have to say is that's awesome!

FXRP Fender Fix

Simple fender work:

Busted FXRP rear fender...By design these fenders are prone to this... the light bar that mounts to the lower fender area is not properly supported.  The factory only tacks in a thin strip of sheet metal behind the mounting points.  As such,  over time the fender loses it battle with vibration and getting bumped into legs, walls...etc..

So, since the customer had a non-busted regular FXR fender, we worked this way...as the old one had a bunch of old braze and working on that shit woulda sucked!

 add some re-enforcement for the rear light bar... (added a LOT more than the stock, to avoid having the same issue again down the road! )

Welded it all in place, laid out the hole pattern and drilled the holes....  Good as new!
