SELF INTRODUCTION: Just an old Dude exploring the world while I still have time. Used to be a member here but forgot my login information so trying to re-register. Working on the placer deposits in Nevada so no roads here to ride anything on unless it;s a dirt bike and even that can be pretty hairy. Nice to see that the place is still active. The old CBH is due to go offline in November. Have to computer anymore and cell signals out here are few and far between so it's hard to maintain any type of regular contact with anybody but glad to see a lot of familiar names.

We're going to be doing a Ness style Digger in a few weeks working in cooperation with a builder in the Seattle area. We've finished with the research and will be posting frame geometry soon so stay tuned...........

It's kind of ironic that coming into bikes from the dragster end of things I never liked the so-called 'Digger' style bikes at all, mostly because they all seemed to be show-only types but doing the research was interesting.
The project we're working on will be for the 86-03 Evo sportster motor but easily adaptable for the Ironheads (one of which I still have but haven't messed with yet).
If nothing else I'd like to post some good drawings of an accurate sporty motormount fixture for use in typical frame jigs. The one that Big Al sells is a little pricey for my budget.
