Күн бұрынThe re-build steps at Customizing my 2004 Harley Sportster into a "Brit-like" Cafe racer. 6 months of "leisure" time in the unheated garage!

Awesome, and I love that you were able to use the stock tank and side covers, but making them look custom. Great work, it looks like a lot of fun to ride!

Thank You. My first motorcycle in High School was a 36 HD Knucklehead. I still wish I had that one! I have had Nortons, Triumphs, BSAs, Velocettes etc. but they are all kick start motorcycles. At age 59 I finally decided that my kick start days are over, so when my son (a HD mechanic) told me about this stock 2004 at a good price, I decided to pick it up and make it my own! As I would build it. It took me about 9 month's to complete. I needed to wait for summer to arrive so it was warm enough in my garage to paint it.

where did you find the 18 inch rims? I'm doing a similar build and this was super motivating.

On e-bay. I searched "Borrani" style rims and the correct number of spoke holes. I finally found someone who sold them. It was three or four years ago so forgive me if I don't remember his name.

Yes, Get the proper spool hubs for the bike and be sure to match the holes and spoke pattern if possible with the modern sportster models.
