New projects at twisted spoke

 This bike is a 1974 sportster we built the frame off the OEM neck. We chopped the transmission off and are using a 6 speed softail style and a 1.5 belt primary, hand built gas tank, 180 rear tire wide 21 front 4 under springer, dual carbs, we build everything we can, most of our bikes are based off stock harleys, in the long run it makes for a more valuable, affordable, and more reliable custom
this bike started as a 2005 softail standard we raked and stretched the frame, built a custom dropseat 200 tire hardtail section, handlebars, oil tank, there is a lot of detail and time into the most simple little item, both of these bike will be going to the mccormick center show this feb. in chicago.
