Ephesians 6:17 The Helmet of Salvation

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

Springer and Rear Tire

The DNA 2 under springer front end came in at the end of last week as did the rear 150 Metzler double whitewall tire.


Chop the Frame

D&S Performance in Dallas took on the project for us. First on the list was chopping the frame of the stock softtail rear end and welding in the hardtail. This gives the frame the clean lines and old school rigid feel. There's only a few companies that are making weld-on hardtails for the rubbermount sportys. Bitterend Choppers supplied the rear end.














2005 Harley Sportster 883

On March 19th, my parents suprised me with the keys to a 2005 HD Sportster. The bike had an old school, rustic rattle can paint paint job with a SoCal sticker on the tank. After a few rides up and down the neiborhood street, it felt good to be on a 2 wheels again. Me and dad then spent the rest of the weekend planning our ultimate bobber project. For those unfamiliar to the term bobber, wiki does a pretty good job suggesting a motorcycle that usually has the front fender removed and the rear fender "bobbed" or made smaller. The style started in the 50s where everything is stripped from the bike that is not needed. When I think bobber, I think old school, no chrome, springer front end, hard tail frame, peanut sportster gas tank, white walls, spoke wheels, drag handlebars, and a springer seat. So that same weekend my parents brought the bike down to Austin, we began the bobber transformation.
