Actually, all his motors are custom built for each bike. Heads, cases
etc are all machined for that bike from block aluminum. His sheet metal
work may be hacking to you, but I bet he has made more money at it than
anyone on this list has!

Just my 2 cents worth.

Maybe he's good with sheet metal, but the rest, motors, wheels, brakes,
etc. just get unpacked from boxes and installed. Those OCC guys are
worse.

Do Harley riders get trailer rash when they fall off of their bikes ?
