Re: A Cafe of a different color
And the final shots before it left my shop. Still some very small things I'll do to it when it's at the show but otherwise it was a good time. I'm sure someone will be very happy with it.
Do YOU Scopper?

Re: A Cafe of a different color
Really nice work kid! As you were doing the chain guard holes I wasn't sure I'd like it but I saw a similar look on a nightster on the weekend and I was sold. The bike looks great and looks like a fun project that was different than the norm.

Re: A Cafe of a different color
One final post for this guy. I was at the bike show it was in on saturday. It was cool to see people stop and stare it over, check out the little things, point and scoff at other things, stare at it bewildered. A few people came up and talked with me and said I did a great job on it. A lot of people didn't like it because they wouldn't want to ride in that riding position which was fine with me. I knew I would get a lot of that. For my first real sponsored build though, I'm still very happy with it all.
Here is how the bike rolled into my shop.
And here is a final shot.
And then here are a few I liked that were shot at the Harley Museum.

Re: A Cafe of a different color
what brand front and rear blinkers are those?
Re: A Cafe of a different color
The fronts are p&w from spiegler. The rear are just some off eBay.

Re: A Cafe of a different color
Got to see this bad boy in person. I remember Nate getting the bike and immediately stripping it of parts like there was no tomorrow. Reminded me of a bugs bunny cartoon with a cloud of dust and parts flying out. I'd say it looks 1000x better.
