Old school all the way! It's not like I need it for a replacement family vehicle, this is pure indulgence.

Some people only ever talk shit, but never do any of the things they talk about. I've always wanted to build my own bike...now I am.

good for you. I'd like to as well or an engine (v8) for a street rod.
I'd just make mine a soft tail.
There's a lot of time and money involved and it's all too easy to get something late model. But you won't know every nut and bolt and you can't say I built that, it's like that because I wanted it like that.
the other thing a lot of people arnt brave enough to do is leave there fairly well paying shit job for a entry level paying dream job.

good stuff!

Haha like leaving my mechanical engineering job 14 years ago to go game keeping in the UK, then return to nz to shoot goats for 10 years on little more money than the dol pays....
