The Painters bike.

 Time for the tunnel. Making it quite wide so I can fit the electric there. The tank is also lowered quite much.

 The welding is done on the tunnel. Now for the presure/leak test.

 Another view of the tunnel.

Looks good now, I just need to mount it to the bike.

The Painters bike.

 Making a new gastank and some other parst for The Painter. Here is a fast mokup of the tank for his approval. When we are content with the lines of the tank then the work starts.

 It is better to start with the top of the tank so you can beat out the small dents after welding.

I also removed the left side gas cap. More to come.

Shovelhead Frame work

 Here is a frame that I rebuilt for a EVO engine, the changes can be seen as the old parts of the frame is sandblasted to remove the old paint and dirt. On this pic the frame is not ready yet. I used finnish made cast parts for this project. 

From the other side.... not a wide ass bike. Sorry but I didn´t take any pics of the ready frame.... my bad.  

The shop

Frames waiting for work........

This beats your office any time.

Giving canser to a shovel.....

 Ok not my favorite engine from the HD family....... but work is work.

 Remove the unnecessary parts from your untouched classic......

 Stretch the front tubes, before you do that remove the old pipes and clean all the old welds on the neck. I use an long tube to help me center the neck when doing this part of the frame work.

 3" up and something forward

 Hardtailing the rear, no computer bending here...... 

 The frame is get there, much more to go.

 I need to stop shaking.

The frame came out superb, light and the lines are perfect.
Some small welds still to do but othervise this one is ready.

Roopes Bike

 Roope is building his bike its a Honda SL 125cc 1978.

This is my old bike I started building it when I was 15 years old newer finnised it.

Here is the engine, it has some work done to it. But I will tear it down with Roope and se if its in shape and give maybe some more love to it....

Seat

 Made a seat.

This one is made from an old tractor seat

Esmeralda, The twinkie killer.....

 I started work on my bike, I dont want to change the frame on this bike because I know this bikes history.

Metal fab..... do you know what here is made?

Hardtail-Softail

 The softail is centerd in the frame jig for chopping.....

 Tadaaa, just as in the TV-show. OK back to real life.... No fiction here.

I hardtailed this 1999 Softail for a friend who wanted to use as much of the original parts as possible.

Like driveline, brakes, oiltank and so on.

 I made an seat pan for him and instaled the rear fender from Paucho. Some small brackets for the oiltank and so on.

I also made brackets for the rear brake. This is going to be an nice fast riding bike.

A real death trap in the making

I were visiting my friend today, he showd me this 10" wide rim with an original spool, that has been modified with SMALLER bearings and no "centertube", IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, ASK SOME ONE THAT KNOWS. 

These newer end, more Softail frame work

This chopper is made the same way, just with some different specs from the ones I made previous.

I have coming up, a Softail that is hardtailed and a shovel that is Softailed. And my personal bike I am making a leafspring front end on it and changing the pipes on the frame to a special sort of alloy this I hope will lithen the frame 40-45% and still make it stronger then the original frame.  

More Softail frame work

 Where to cut and open welds.

 The frame is cut and centerd in the frame jig.

 My litle helper....... No need for inserts.

 The frame has been stretched and the welds are smoothed out.

 The frame needs to be heated and bent out when you stretch it.

 When I rake a neck on frames I always weld it completly through. The space is needed to fit welding rods and the TIG head. The amount of welding material is about 1,5kg for an neck and stretch jobb like this. 

 Starting to look like a frame again, here you can also follow the welding order.

 I rolled the pipe to get a small radius on it, looks better than a straight pipe.

 Here the frame mod is ready and leaving for my customer for first mokup.

And another chopper is born.

Softail frame work

 Here is a softail frame that I did for my friend, the frame was raked wery poorly. The cast part from the frame was desroed totaly by the person that raked the fram before me. So I only used the old "stem" pipe from the frame and made the res from pipes and SFS Fe 52 steel plates.

 My friend also wanted a bit of stretch to the frame, on this frame i made the stretch quite low to remowe all the fuckups that was made. 

 Here you can see how its coming together.

 The frame is ready and rock solid. Quite close to the original look.

Flange fix

Bad pic but you get the idea 

Spiderpig......Spiderpig..........

 I made this for an customer that has been watching to much TV........

Frame Work 144"

 This frame was made to wide at the seat for any rider, so I made some changes to it. The frame was built in sweden for a S&S 144" engine.

Here the frame is chopped down to suit any driver.
