WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENIN'?
So here's a little taste of what I have been up to for the last 3 years. Not sure why I didn't get going on the "Blog" a long time ago, but I guess late is better than never...

These are some of the most recent Indian's I have done or am in the middle of doing... I was the service manager at Indian Motorcycle Los Angeles West several years ago and I have loyal customers that want only the best. So I try to offer just that!
The first one is actually for a L.A. Choprods associate. It is a chromed out 2002 Chief all rebuilt from the frame up with a fresh 100" Power plus Motor re-built by Bennett's Performance.
The next one is a late model Spirit...
Completely rebuilt due to a cracked frame...
Then the customer just went for it and let me do it right! Bumped the 88 up to a 96"....
-fresh tins; 16' apes on a completely fresh polished Front End; full polish on Primary, Rockers, Rotors, Trans covers, and a slew of various parts. Hand brushed foot controls, calipers, and pulley.
...And here's what she ended up looking like.

BOBBER CHOP'S
H-D BOBBER
This one is based off a '96 FXST...
-Just playing with sheet metal ideas here...starting with a L.A. Choprods- "Pinche Petrol" fuel tank
-2 under tubes with 2'' lower kit
-DNA wheels, fat 21" front/ 18"x 200mm rear(just for mock- not diggin' the red too much)
-blank rear fender remnant makes for a pretty cool look.
-Mid control convertion a MUST! (o.e. H-D)

Latest Projects- Harley Chop's
This is Chris Moore's 2001 Night Train. Did What i like to think is a nice clean chop.
-fat tire
-custom chopped fender with mounts for saddlebags.
-dumped her plenty low
-wrinkle black powder accents/ fork brace
-Lazer Star marker lighting
-Heartlands sidemount
-clean and simple Danny Grey seat
Jae Kim's '96 Softail has a little less aggressive look, but still cool. He needed to be able to mount his luggage racks, sissy bar, and saddlebags. All removable , of course, to get the best of both worlds.
when all was said and done, it ended up with...
-96" S&S motor
-Jim's six speed gear set
-DNA 60 spokewheels(fat 21 with a 180 rear end)in solar black
-mean street forks(4 under)
-one-off sheet metal in a Satin Matte Silver.
-a slew of brushed nickle, black powder, and hand brushed aluminum.
- Lazer Star marker lighting
- mid control conversion
And this is how she looks...
