Reasoning
Doc's first bikes was a 1996 sporty (he didn't talk to me before he bought this Bike). After owning a few Ducs he totally abandoned this thing to a friends garage. When that friend damaged the tank I suggested it was time to make a move.
Stock these things are hideous!
Chrome up the ass. Lowe to the ground. Heavy. Mushy. Everything a bike should not be.
Breakdown
Ever seen a Harley Fly? Ya me neither. They are to fucking heavy to fly. 3 Hours and the bike starts to look like a fucking bike and not a couch.
Initial Mockup
It's Get stoked time!! A friend of mine told me years ago that he had a Dunstall Aluminum Tank from a Norton he bought. I didn't forget this when I started thinking this thing up in my mind and man am I happy about it.
Whats to come
Next week I will be in possession of the Following:
Ducati Sport Classic Wirewheels. Ducati Sport Classic Tubular Single Shock Swingarm.
I will be chopping this frame and making this pig ride right. Modern Ohlins Upside down front end. Alum Seat and Cowl, Alum Front fender, Slip ons.
This will be what America should be building.
I sure Hope I can pull it off!
Stay tuned.
