Finished up welding another intake manifold with a right side mount last night. Might be one of my best yet.... here it is raw before the high temp coating.

Xs 650 Dirt Tracker
Ive had this early 73 or 74 frame sitting around for a little bit. Cleaned out my mountain of parts the other day, and had enough stuff laying around to get another roller going. Im just playing with tanks and seat set ups right now.... but this should be fun. Super skinny dirt style tracker. I never know what to call these things. Its a motorcycle.

2014 Pandemonium Choppers Xs 650 Build Off (Part 3)
I got an email the other day that my hardtail was in the mail. So i decided to order a few parts and start to see how this thing is going to come together. Been swapping out parts to figure out what i want to use/make.
Used some mini apes, but i wanted them narrower than they were. So i cut about 2" out of the center, drilled, lugged, and welded up the seam. Looking better i think.

Triumph Bonneville 650 Chopper
Worked as much as I could on this chopper project this week. Scored a bunch of parts that i was waiting on, and got some steel that I needed.
Got the fender mounted, made the sissy bar, tailight and license plate mounts, muffler mounts, and i finished making the rest of the custom exhaust. Im diggin it so far... Just need to redo the headlight mount and finish adjusting everything. Then wire and fire it.

Triumph Bonneville Chopper
Spent some time on the exhaust yesterday. Got a few sets of stock headpipes, and started cutting them up. Made some kind of high shotgun style pipes. Once i get the sissy bar welded and mounted with the fender I will finish the exhaust. Turn it up with the sissy bar.

60s Triumph Bonneville 650 Chopper
Met up with my buddy who had some extra triumph stuff for sale/trade. Picked up a ton of stuff that i needed. Couple sets of headpipes that i can cut and weld into a custom exhaust. Got a kick stand, petcock, clutch cable and some other miscellaneous stuff.
Just need to wait till monday to get some more metal and ill be ready to finish most of the mock up... Then i just have to wire and plumb and it should be ready to run.

650 Triumph Bonneville Chopper
Got the seat spring mounts, seat pivot mount, and gas tank mounts welded and finished. Will have to unbolt the hardtail to be able to finish all of the welding. Just need to buy a few feet of rod stock to get the sissy bar made. Then, need to get the final tire on there so i can try and set my fender clearances..
