Christmas present

My wife gave me a motorcycle stand for Christmas, and I love it!

Almost done!

The work continues on my Boulevard. It should be done this weekend, if all goes well.

Suzuki boulevard in progress

The front end is torn down and all the parts are starting to trickle in. Won't be long now!

2005 Suzuki Boulevard!

I bought this one from an online auction.  I has some front end damage, but the rest is all perfect.  I did a quick video just to record the sound, which is awesome!

93' Ninja 250R Complete!


It's finished! And also sold! I sold so fast that I didnt even get any pictures with the new windscreen on. (It was still in the mail)  I was way fun to paint. I finally got to use all of my new paint gear that I got for Christmas, and it was awesome! This one didn't need a lot of mechanical work, mostly all cosmetic. I did a sport bike this time because I thought it would be more lucrative (money wise), but in reality, it was the opposite.  So much of the bike was plastic, fiberglass, and paint, the expenses just kept pilling up.  Now that it's all done I realize that I've spent more on this bike than any other bike I've done.  It's been fun, but definitely my last sport bike.



The paint turned out awesome.  I am proud!

93' Ninja 250R

I decided to post as I go on this one. I am really excited about this bike. From what iv'e heard it sounds like it's really fun to ride, and just enough power to get around on.

It has a few cracked fairings, a broken handlebar, and needs a new chain for starters. I went through the carburetors and got it running.  Everything seems great, but I'm sure more will be relieved once I can ride it.  I have all the parts ordered, so now its just a waiting game.  I am still deciding what color to paint it, maybe a red..... or white. Whatever the color, it is going to be a blast.  The canvas is so big!  Anyway, here are some more pictures.  Let me know for color ideas!

Suzuki GS550

Well the long winter is finally over, which means some new projects!  I just finished and sold this 1982 GS550 and am happy with how it turned out.  I payed a little more for this one, but it had a few extra features that made it worth a little more, like a gas gauge and aluminum peg stays.  I still managed to make four times what this project cost me, so it was definitely worth it.  Rest assured, I have awesome pictures, but we got a new computer and everything is a little lost in the transfer.  But I do have this video, so that will have to do for now.
