I´m "highonlife_badtrip" on insta. Harley stuff, garage fabrications and a baby snake rescue. If you´re not into that stuff it's probably very boring.

Long time no on the site. Some really nice bikes these past pages. That ironhead is super cool.

This is what I've been up to in the building season in my parents 3x3 meter garage..

The bike is a 1978 Lowrider.

I know the front brake hoses are too long, but can´t afford new ones at the moment.

How I bought it.

After the rebuild.

Closeup of the paintjob that was a pain in the ass and nerv wrecking from start to finish.

I was kind of hoping that I could find similar (rounded) bars from somewhere else.

I think those pangea bars will cost me around $175 with shipping, and an additional 25% sales tax and whatever the customs want.

Time to learn how to weld.

Soo, does anybody know if these kind of handlebars have a name?

I need to be able to google and ebay them more easily.

*can´t post pics??

I made this over that last week.

Sorry about the shitty quality photo..

I forgot how much work it was, so lots of respect for the leather smiths on here.

Congrats on the ironhead, Ed.

Who fucking cares if you wrench it yourself, like the rest of the OuTLaWz here...

Wish list in order of probability:

Sinn ezm

Omega speedmaster

Rolex no date sub

Will never buy but want:

Rolex milgauss (50´s-60´s model)

79 sportster ironhead amf .hd yeay or nay?

weren't you buying a panhead YESTERDAY??

Brain, yeah, small budget. I also don't want to care if I break it or lose it. Just a step up from a box cutter, but safer.

Any other recommendation in the sub $50 price range are very appreciated.

I cut my leg on one of those box cutters with retractable blades because the locking mechanism failed. So I´m switching to a folder.

I´ve been looking at Byrd knifes, robin or raven or something in that size. However, they look kind of wide, are they inconvenient for pocket carry?

Anybody have any winter projects?

I´m going to attempt to make a fiberglass seat cowl for my 900 seca.

I also picked up a -71 nova (four door...) with a working trans and v8 for $1500 that I´m going to try to fix up. (Not bike related but anyway)

Buy and chop that triumph dem! Make it short and narrow.

You will probably get 1500 for it if you decide it´s too much work after going trough the engine and trans.

^ I hate how honda have that turndown at the back of the tank on some models. I have it on my cb400n. I would much more prefer it straight.

That turned out really nice!

How does the front wheel handle on the street?

(Must spread rep)

Yeah, maybe. I does look a bit off.

That bike is so nice...

Thanks denim.

About the picture, looks like max schaaf jumping his knuckle.

Or do you mean why he is jumping it? If so, I have no idea..

I got this bike from my uncle because it didn´t run. It´s a yamaha 750 seca but the engine is replaced by the 900 seca engine. It runs now.

My plans for it this winter is:

Mount the headlight and fairing lower.

Change the gas tank to something with a flat bottom.

Build a shorter fiberglass single seat.

Maybe wrap the pipes if the paint starts to chip off.

Looks pretty nice ed! What colors are you going to paint it?

So this year I really am going to get my license. Been putting it off for too long.

I got an old 1985 yamaha xj 750 (with a 900 replacement engine in it!) from my uncle to learn on. Just need a helmet now. And for the snow to go away..

Demo, what style are going to go with for the sr 400?

Most recent mock up.

That looks great! Couldn´t rep.

what are your thoughts on this watch? I keep going back and forth between this, the invicta 8926, and ebay steriles..

Alpha makes a milsub version now that looks nice.

I´m trying to finish the danger close and one man army perks, so I´m annoying to play vs. now.

Acr+noob tube, claymores. Fire 2 tubes, one man army into same class, rinse repeat. Went 48-4 on ground war domination on rundown. (I usually don´t play that cheap)

I tried to satisfy my sub urges with an ollech&wajs m4.

I´m happy with it so far, keeps great time and the red print on the dial doesn´t bother me like I thought it would.

Would like to put sword hands on it though.

^^^ Thanks, and thanks for the rep+ everybody!
