2018 Custom Softail

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

To build a bike that describes my additude and passions!

What motivated you to start your project?

I started because no 1 would finance me a Harley so I decided to just build my own !

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the bike?

Cut it up to make parts fit and shut people up that said it would never work, and that I was just wasting my time.

What are you most proud of?

That I have the only 1 like this!

What do other people say about your motorcycle?

People ask to take pics of it everywhere I go on it, then they want me to build them 1 , but I say no cause I only build them for myself,
