  • WE CAN DO THIS! Will me Evo Frisco skinny chopper done in time for Sturgis? We're getting there! Despite a million little setbacks, and tons of little custom bits to be made and modified, my ‪@SSCycleInc‬ powered ‪@paughcoparts9816‬ chopper is coming along. We've got the motor, transmission, and inner primary on. The forks are on, the Alleyway Customs headlight looks amazing, and I just can't wait to hear it fire in a few weeks. Time is still gonna be tight since I have more international work tavel coming up, but no matter what we're gonna get this done by SmokeOut! If you want to chip in and help with the build costs, please go check out the channel membership at / @professionalmonkey .
    Love y'all to death for watching us have fun! For those that hope we fail, well, bless your little old heart...

    I have had my 53 Harley, in pieces, for last 2 years. Engine is done, and finishing transmission this weekend. People don't realize how much concentration it takes to build a bike, and people asking you to "film" it while your doing it, is a big PITA. Bike looks great.

      Setting up the camera for different shots to show all the things makes every task take literally 300%+ longer not to mention hours and hours and hours to edit the video if you don't want total crap. It is a massive pain in the ace. I tried once, never again.

    Damn she looking good. Don’t be so hard on yourself. This is as fine a build as any I seen in the show yet and it really is being built in a garage not a fancy shop imagine that 😂 got my boy watching you and he’s thinking of taking a chance on an old shovel I got rotting away in the shed. Keep it up!

    Great update, I’ve not tried to take my 99 super glide apart (yet) but it’s coming. Glad to hear I’m not the only one that cross-threads bolts either. Switched out my inner faring to a Advanblack and got so frickin’ tired of trying to put it back together that I cross-threaded one of the bolts that holds the faring onto the bike. My point is that we don’t learn unless we make some mistakes now and then. Can’t wait to see how it will look when you’re done. Be safe, happy Father’s Day.

    Life intrudes; Little Monkey to Orlando, work sends you overseas... At least you don't have water intruding into the garage, or worse into the house. Keep on slogging onward, you're getting close enough to the finish line to be able to see the lights.
    Can't wait to see the finished product. Looking forward to seeing a video of you riding it around the neighborhood running on a fuel bag.

    If you got your garage properly organised with those tables / shelves down one side oe better stil along the back wall you'd have a lot more space to work and to park all your bikes. Would make a good video too.

    You talk about boring parts of the build, I would literally be tuned in 24/7 if you had a live feed of your garage. Get a computer in that garage, buy a webcam, and start streaming on Twitch. Hell, you'd probably make a decent amount of money doing it too. Just sayin.
