Headlight Mounted
Scored this headlight off the homie K Mack a while back, I loved the look of it but the direction the bike was going at first I wasn't going to be able to use it, makes me happy it fits right in with the flow of the bike now.
One more step closer to being back on the road.

Chopper Updates...
Put in some work on the chop Yday...
I'm hoping it'll be up and running in a few weeks.
Just figured since I am finally back working on it, I might as well post some updates...
picking and chosing... using the red fender, the coffin tank and the seat pan I made. everything else well, there's always the next project.
got the headlight bracket cut and welded, just need to pretty it up a bit.
before and after smoothing out the seat pan I made. it's all ready for padding and upholstering.
hitting the shop today after work to get the rear fender cut up and placed on the bike, and the tank mounted, and see what other stuff we can get done. Hoping to get her cranked by this weekend and then all put together and on the road in a few weeks.
since the bike took a complete turn in design, it was only right that the old project name be scrapped with the idea. Wasn't to sure if this little chop would even get a new name and then while talking to a buddy and showing him some photos of my progress he said it. "That's going to be an evil little bastard isn't it?" and so it was re-named. Hopefully the Evil Little Bastard will be on the road before the end of the month.

Re-Chopping
started working on the XS again. determined to get it back on the road asap. crazy thing is, once I started, things got twist turned inside out, and the entire look of the bike in my head changed, so it's back on the chopping block literally. cool ting is with the help o y friend Caesar we seem t be getting things done and I hope to have the bike up ad running sooner then later.
here's some pictures of our progress.
this was 3 1/2 hrs of chopping, grinding, heating, hammering, and welding good times...
