Re:Roadstar Bobber 1 Year ago  
Not too sure yet... another metric... Harley... actually, I would like to build a cafe style metric. Those are becoming pretty popular here in the Dallas, TX area and I think I could turn it quick. Ideally, I would have more than one bike/project, but the wife and wallet say otherwise right now...

Thanks for the feedback!
