I'm not in the market for that type of bike but you sure did a great job on it. Clean, classy, and has that old school Sportster feel to it. Great work and GLWS.
Hello Colby, All of the money and your unbelievable skills into others and now THIS beautiful machine, I have to ask, ARE YOU ADDICTED TO PERFECTION?? Only 20 miles away but my knees are so bad even after both being replaced I think my shifting days are over! What a beauty. GLWS. hh aka Dave wwm
This is the sporty I'd build if I was to build a sporty. Or the Sporty I'd buy if I had the money and was looking for a sporty. Great job Colby, GLWS,
It is an absolute gorgeous bike. I saw it in person the other day. Colby did a great job. Wish I had room for another bike. I thinks it's a steal for sure now!
To the top, need to move this one along to make room in the garage for the next project. price drop $5150.00 come at me with those offers.
[/QUOTE] yes, it was a 2003 sportster anniversary with the hideous OEM paint scheme on the tank, still bears the 100th anniversary badge on the motor.
FINAL PRICE DROP. $4500, firm as a prom night pecker. No bullshit. I need to move the bike to make room for other things. This is less money than the parts I put on top of an already nice bike.
