OG 1985 FXRT
When I first purchased this bike I had intended on doing an oil change and then riding off into the sunset. Once I got eyes on it, it became clear that she needed a bit of love. Since the revival, I've had her all the way down to San Diego, and back up to Reno. She's a runner. Hop on and go anywhere.

FRESH OFF THE TRAILER
My first impression when we pulled this bike out of the trailer: "Item not as described". "The pictures did disappoint."
-
CRUSTY AND RUSTY
For the guys who preach "in crust we trust". This thing was nasty... So much for just an oil change.
-
NEGLECTED, NOT PROTECTED
Scratches and gouges from 13 years of neglect in a midwest shed. Don't worry baby, you're safe now.
-
THE REVIVAL
It's hard to believe this bike is 40 years old. It took almost two years to bring this thing back to life. Every piece was painstakingly restored from the calipers to the wiring harness.
-
FULL FRAME-UP RESTO-MOD
Every piece of this motorcycle was restored and upgraded. The plan was to keep it stock and OG looking, but jam it full of performance parts -- the motor, transmission, suspension and primary.
