Nice! Interested to see what you come up with. All else fails, maybe you can sell this one to Harley too.

Can’t wait to see how it goes. Planning some tube work I’m guessing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Yes gonna add some tube work for sure. But keep this simplistic for weight purposes for C2 Will most likely be leaving some factory parts off too for this purpose. Just picked up some more braze flux and some stainless | |

Also cutting the heavy junk out of the trunk!! I love the look and rigidity of the rear fuel cell etc but it won't be needed for this build, getting rid of that weight on the silver line.... Also these axles are super cool!! Emblem design reminds me of transformers for some reason |

This is fun. Look forward to seeing the tube work. I built the chassis last night. Was quite surprised at how heavy it is.
