My main objective when starting this build was to put together a clean, (semi)reliable shovelhead chopper that is fun to ride.
After putting together my first Sportster chopper I was hooked. When I ran across a good deal on a 1981 shovelhead in my area, I sold the Sportster to fund this build.
Jordan and the crew at Union Speed and Style did all the heavy lifting while straightening the stock 1981 FXS frame and fabricating a hardtail rear section with cast axle plates to give the bike a factory looking geometry with matching VIN numbers on the frame and engine cases.
I am most proud of how clean this bike looks and how fun it is to ride.
People tend to say that it looks much older than it actually is.
