    Mostly done. Need some more mulch. Some bricks to help level. And was missing a couple brackets. Literally just need to mount monkey bars and slide

    So... no secret with y'all, I'm not consistent online.... family and work come first.

    First, I forget who the other metalhead is... wanna say @ABA180
    So, my almost 10 year old, convinced us, that she should join us at the Palladium, for Parkway Drive in May.. so... she is going to her first live venue. Not sure which of us is more stoked.....\m/

    Second, this is one of the projects soaking up my time. And it is road worthy. Need to do a little more wiring, and some other details.

    Definitely not the same bike I brought home in August of 20
    Lighter, better handling, and double the power...
    20200826_170839.jpg


    I have several other irons in the fire, with a couple other bikes... but, I keep that on my IG...

    Agreed. She is way into Slayer, and thrash in general.
    She knows Parkway Drive, and when we were talking about going....she was all over it. Hatebreedis another one. Should he a great night!

    Do you have power figures for that RoadKing? It definitely looks better now than when you first got it! (Even though I am not a fan of Harleys...)

    Absolutely. Though, I try to keep that to myself...
    Shaved 7lbs off the rear wheel alone, want to get it dyno'd again just to quantify the rotating mass change.
    I CAN tell you, I can feel every pound I shaved off in the rotating, and unsprung category.

    And thanks. I know it isn't for everyone...
    Been toying the line between fun, and reliable with this bike.
    The others are just fun
    I will also note, that the engine was built last summer, by me, with machine work by others, and tuned to match.

    I will take a really random guess, since I have no idea what you did to the motor, but 100 hp, 125 lb-ft?
    I would like to line it up against my slightly modified Yamaha Raider!

    Definitely more on HP, TQ is pretty close. Mine is peak, I cruise @ 3000. Pulls hard until I pull fuel/spark.
    Edit. Headwork. Cubes. Compression, cams. Etc.

    I'm always up for a ride. I don't bench race.
    Known plenty of rides with nice dyno sheets, that couldn't ride'em...
    And guessing based on what I know of the Raiders/Warriors... given the weight difference... should be pretty close either way....



    Wife is still a little apprehensive... but, the deed is done...
    She is definitely our little Metalhead

    If I had kids I'd definitely be doing the same thing..and leaving wife at home, as she isn't into the stuff

    Last show was Megadeth/LoG/Hatebreed, back in September.
    The live venue line-up for this year looks killer...

    I was going to say higher HP, but you never know.
    I wish I had a dyno number for my bike, but I bought it modified, and just trying to base what it could make on dyno from other people online with similar mods.
    I would like to go riding up in Mass, I have heard Quabbin Reservoir is nice.

    RWHP means nothing really. It's a mathematical calculation based on certain conditions. Hell, operator can use a different gear a skew the results. Temp, humidity, etc.

    Couple that, with bike/rider weights. Etc.

    Abd as far as riding up here... if you ever feel like stretching your legs... bring it on. I'm 20 minutes from Quabbin, and ride the loop around it occasionally. Though. I tend up end up in NH/VT, etc.

    Yeah, that is all true!
    The one time I trailered my old bike up to NH, it was great, the roads up there were nearly perfect! I don't think I could ride up to NH from RI though (well, I could, but I would be sore the next day!).
