After a little over a year, the softail gangster build is burning gas! This one was quite the challenge it fought back every chance it got. We went down to the frame and found some hidden issues and obstacles along the way but we over came them all. From having to switch painters in the middle of the project 3 paint jobs and re powder coating everything that came in chrome to gloss black. To wheels needing custom wheel spacers, front air ride fittings needing to be custom made. Shaving all new sheet metal to fit. Making things work on an EVO that normally would not bolt on. Having to modify the center stand that didn't fit as it should. Making the rear subframe modifications to accept new struts that also had to be cut welded and coated. Not one thing on this bike was a bolt together situation everything has been Modified or custom made to fit. When building a custom bike and making things fit that normally dont it's important to allow patience and time for errors with knowing things may not go the way you plan on them going. But having the ability and people around to make it to the finish line! Anyone that builds or customizes motorcycles knows you need solid people around and good sub contractors you can trust. Those who came in clutch with helping with fabrication, paint and shipping parts over night to get it done you know who you are and I thank you very much! This is definitely one for the record books and one that I am very proud of! Here are some before and after photos that still don't do this thing justice along with a little build sheet.
