Here’s one of the @jacksonzimm studio shots of the sportster tracker I built. Just a teaser. There will be a full release soon, somewhere. Kick only. No battery. Aluminum swingarm/gas tank/fender/oil tank. 1250cc. About as sporty as a sporty can get, probably. Thanks to: @lowbrowcustoms (seat, fender, levers) @get_lowered (shocks @legendsuspensions ) @4th_floor_choppers (tank) @prismsupply_ (grips, throttle) @kuryakyn (signals/brake lights) @tridentcyclesupply (aircleaner) @rickybongos (motor mount) @citylimitmoto (front rotors) @beringerbrakes (calipers) @exotic_choppers (kicker pedal, mag cover) @ledsledcustoms (kicker) @gigastatt (swingarm, pegs) @mr.chooch (bars, headlight) @lyndallbrakes (rear rotor) @speeddealer (fuel cap parts) @barnfiend (oil tank idea) @buffaloharley (brake pedal) @hammer_performance (1250 kit)

Boosted Shovelhead. I miss it already. Still some time left to snag a Shovelhead print from @oldbikebarn done by @pipedreamillustrations . All proceeds go toward helping me help you build cool bikes! Check out the link in my profile.

I wanted to church up the NSX engine bay a bit so I made some parts. I also removed the engine cover so you can peak down thru the glass and see the new @scienceofspeedllc supercharger. The parts were cerakoted by @nardo_c5 and came out really nice I think. Strut bar, pulley cover, throttle body cover, coolant tank, 02 sensor controller mount, fuse box lid, a little knob thing for fuse lid, egr delete, and radiator mounts, then bolted it all on with nice arp hardware. If you need any machine or design work shoot me a dm. Nearly all tooling to make these parts was from @waltertools (ma276 tools are excellent) Edit: Since so many people are asking the scanner is a freescan combo+

Now that I finally have some bugs worked out I can make a post about these mockup motors. These are 3d printed from PETG plastic and designed to be used with the CT Newman frame jig. They have an insert for the bottom so you can use them on a regular frame as well. In addition, we have a 4 speed ratchet top model designed for use on the jig available. The trans is setup so it's at the forward most point in the trans plate adjustment. The motors will come with everything exterior wise you would need to build a frame around it (no pushrod tubes or oil pump parts). The cone shovel motor will have a nose cone, I just didn't have one printed yet for that picture. Can do a genny shovelhead also but it'll have the panhead cam cover. Have plans to add knucklehead and flathead versions in the coming months. /collections/mockup-models Note: there's over 100 hours of print time in each one of these so they do take a while to print all the parts. Expect at least a 4 week wait time depending on amount of orders I have lined up. Payment won't be required until I start printing your order. Prices are as follows: $400 for complete mockup motor, (whatever version you want) $200 for each additional top end. $150 4 speed case including the lid and kicker cover. I have both the panhead and shovelhead styles. #panhead #shovelhead #chopper #harderthanithastobe #zippyindustries

Bending bars the right way. ⁣ Joe on the @ctnewman jig shaping a set of custom handlebars for Royal Blood. No catalogue parts here — just getting the stance and feel exactly where it needs to be.

Fun project with @b.a.t.workshop putting a Bentley v12 motor into an Audi S8. Scanned, drew and machined these intercooled intake manifolds. Lots of chips. A few heartaches, but overall success. I’ll make a follow up post once they’re welded and installed. Thanks for all the tooling from @waltertools , especially on those loooong reach 1/2” endmills.

I still have a couple of the generator mount magneto/alternator setups available. They replace your generator on an Ironhead/Bigtwin. They output spark for your ignition AND power for your lights. They can be configured to be a SUPER simple electrical system if you so choose. Available in several configurations/finishes.

My MAGNETO ALTERNATORS for generator bigtwin and ironheads will be available again very soon. Last batch sold out very quickly. Limited numbers available. What’s it do? It replaces your generator with a small alternator AND a magneto. Use it to clean up the cam cover side of your bike. Use it to run dual mags on a generator bike. I’ve had people use them for race applications. Lots of possibilities. Direct link to the product in my bio with more info.
