Mungo, I believe you can relate to the look on Hammers face. I presented him with this Softail Rocker for his GD, who just happens to be named "Harley". This is the first time he saw this Harley. I presented it to him and his wife at our MC meeting. Yeah, they both cried.

That is a work of art. Just out of curiosity - how many hours would you put into one of them?

Yep - I can relate. It is really something when you see it for the first time.

Ours sits right here in the living room for RJ, his cousin, nieces and nephews and various neighborhood kids. They all love it. It's pretty cool. The dang thing definately takes a beating, as well as the floors and the walls and the furniture...

I guess they just want that Harley to fly.

I see the softail design. That looks too cool.

You have a gift. A real gift. I can't even imagine making one of these things for someone, seeing their face, and knowing it was because of something you created.

Tell Hammer I said hey. I am trying to plan a trip out there before you guys forget about me. When does deer season start?

Speed, they usually take about 85 hours for the baggers. The Sporties and Dyna's take a bit less. This one is a Herritage Softail with leather bags, it took a bit longer because I had to make the leather bags.
