dreams accomplished and dreams in process


Here is a pic of me on the road on my sears a few days before the crash.


Here is a 42 that the sheet metal is getting fit on. I am really excited about this bike and am looking forward to riding it. It belongs to a hd dealer in Texas and is going to be primo!



And my next long term project just showed up in the mail today. It is a 1917 pope left hand case, I found a right hand case in Australia and will have a bike some day. I have too much healing and work to do for customers to be in a position to tackle this project right now, but I can still collect parts and day dream. life would be boring with out projects.

  1. Hey Matt, glad you are healing. Tried to call you a while back and you weren't around, ended up talking to your pop for a little while. Hope he relayed my well wishes. I just had carpal tunnel surgery, so I can't wrench these days either, it sucks.
