the Ribster...

Yesterday I did another fotoshoot of the Ribster,

possibly it's last...

I am real sad to have to sell it, but sh*t happens!

It took me to great places, on wonderful adventures and made me meet incredible people!

Where ever it goes, it will always stay in my heart!

(damn, that sounds silly to say about some piece of metal and rubber :-) )

BarHopper Reloaded

After the last Iron we did, we decided to take the 2OO3 Sportster we had standing and give it more or less the same treatment.

Tank mounted frisco style

 K-Tech controls

Brushed forklegs

Fatboy fenderstruts :-) (this raises the short rear fender with about 2cm)

closing the gaps between tank and frame

 
Aircleaner, and behind it you can see how I made sure to be able to adjust the throttle cabe because of the internal throttle

internal throttle

Brakelines through the handlebars

real narrow mini ape with trottle cable comming out

 and brake line comming out

What is nicer then freshly shaved legs...?

... Well, Tattooed shaved legs :-)
So, I attacked my forklegs and made them look cool (to say so myself)

Quality time with the Panhead

After starting it up a while ago, I've discovered that the front cylinder base gasket was leaking. And the rear cylinder head had some issues to.
Therefore... I needed to take the cylinders off...
