Willie built the battery box for Eric's bike. After putting the fins on which he welded one by one, he swore that it looked like an art deco toaster...

If you look real close at the last pic, maybe even squint your eyes a little, you might be able to see that art deco toaster that Willie sees...

Not only can Willie weld and build bikes -- he can Photoshop pretty well, too.

(Watch -- he'll say he sacrificed a couple of slice of bread and just plunked 'em on top of the box).

Toast in the battery box...and last year when Sheri made me a sandwich in the pits I saw a nitrous bottle in the ice chest with the food hahahah.  I see a trend developing here!

Can we pit next to you guys again?

Got the pro charger in today for Eric's bike. We mocked it up to see what it will look like. It will need a couple of mods cause they don't make it for a custom bike they only make it for a stock Harley. Its a very nice kit. Its all polished, its all billet stuff. I'm very impressed with it. It kind of changes the look of the bike but it will be ok.Believe it or not with 10 days to go till Bonneville, we are going to try to have this bike up and ready to go.
Sheri is going over our two bikes trying to get them ready to go, as well as, packing up the trailer and running for parts. We are leaving on Saturday morning bright and early. When the gates open up Sunday morning, whoever is behind me in line will have to honk to wake me up.
Heres some pics... See ya on the salt.

The boys were working their tails off today. They got the chain guard made. The shifter made. The top motor mount mounted The coil and the damper. The electric fuel pump and regulator and the voltage regulator mounted. She's starting to look a little evil. Here are some pics.
