A long time ago @bwagner71 gave me a crash course in TIG welding, and told me “it’s only metal, you can always put it back” he was correct ! I have always remembered that when I’m about to make a risky move or chop something I probably shouldn’t... “fuck it! It’s only metal and you can always put it back”. Today I put 2 fork stops back on, and started to weld up a set of heads that need new push rod locations, fixed a billet wheel, I also took a die grinder to a set of knuckle heads and cylinders. 😳🤷🏻‍♂️ (not pictured) but the whole time I kept saying that in my head.. fuck it, it’s only metal.. #bornfree11 #bornfreeinvitedbuilder #fuckititsonlymetal

Well if you know me, you know I said I probably wouldn’t do Born free this year.. but also if you know me you know that probably wasn’t true.. after taking the last 2 years off from the invitational part of the show, I decided it was time again. For the last 4 or 5 years I have had an idea for a project and was missing some key ingredients. This summer I finally found the key puzzle piece I was searching for. (Not pictured). When I final had it in my hand and held it up with the rest of the parts I knew it had to be done or it would sit there in my brain scratching away at my sanity until I built it. Well the time is here. At least I feel like I have a nice solid collection of parts and a solid idea to work towards this winter. If someone out there in IG land is looking for a really cool bike to own this could be yours... For the motor I’m using a set of 37 UL cases, and mating. A set of dual carb knuckle heads to them. Keeping the rockers exposed, I will be making a bunch of cool one offs for this thing. I will be running a set of linkerts.. YES me, running linkerts. I know weird. All I can say is this will be in a slightly different direction than most of my other builds, while at the same time, combining “early” parts with “chopper looks”. Never period correct, but always cool. As always the stance and attitude of the bike are key to me. 18x21 wheels, a rigid front end, and some cool tricks and techniques I have been itching to try. Over all “clean and simple”. See you in June.. ⏱ #bornfree11 #bornfreeinvitedbuilder #bf11

You really do see some cool shit out on the road. Most times I don’t pull my phone out and try and capture it, I just enjoy it as I drive. But this mornings first gas stop in the middle of nowhere was an opportunity to use both hands and snap a few good pics so I have more than just the mental image. #arazona #sunrise #traveler #roadtrippin
