slimsfab mikes dyna

This is mikes dyna, he brings it through time to time to get a touch more fab as his taste changes! Ive fabbed another sissybar for this bike in the past it had a square stock Triton style one< this particular one he wanted longer and round stock, I use 5/8 inch round torch bent to spec then mounted to flat bar,In the pics you can see the heavy gusseting for strength! He recently put on a Mustang tank on and had Sonny Boy stripe it! NICE touch Mike!! Mike is very involved in puting miles on his ride and is a realist with good taste, all his mods he carefully thinks through before rashley making poor decisions which would sacrifice rideability, thanks for the work Mike, Slim 951 217 8814

slimsfab baddass Indian drag bike(not mine)

I took these pics at David Mann show a few years back,It is The Epitome of badd ass drag bike!I heard the show wasnt that great this year in some peoples eyes,in others it was great! To me a day out on your 2 wheeled rig to see others and their creations all happy to shoot the breeze is the best day ever! I dont frequently get away from the shop(about a year or so) to get to shows,but i do put alot of projects people have started back in working order sooooo.... i guess someone has to do it, that is make alot of bikes get down the road versus me ride all the time!!! If i have a great STREET LEGAL bike in the stable I actually own,chances are nothing will ever get done at my shop!!! Slim 951 217 8814

slimsfab hardtail for Tyler

This is a 2009 sportster that was just hardtailed here at slims fab farm,also it received a oil bag,upswept pipes and sissy bar! the fender was supplied by Tyler but mounted here at the farm, if you notice the tire is massive when compared to the fender size, He has not yet ordered his shinko double white yet.So i gave him adequate clearance for it. When i do a hardtail here, one of my questions to you is....do you want stretch? That can change alot,such as where the battery will have to be located, and if you will retain your drive belt(if your bike has a belt).When you stretch a bike 2 inches it allows room to mount your battery inboard the frame,with no stretch it has to be mounted on the side(outboard frame).It is also alot easier to convert away from final drive belts,and go to a chain set-up! Chains are alot easier to change sprocket combos for freeway or street use,and for length on stretched bikes.CHAINS REQUIRE MORE MAINTINENCE! so for you guys that dont like to maintain your rig ,keep your fuckin belt! On this rubbermount owned by Tyler he did not want stretch so,we retained stock length and ride height,therefor his stock belt was kept and his battery is side mounted! Hope you all have a great day! sun is still out here in Cali which makes it really hard to do a winter teardown and re-chop for spring but fuck it take advantage of the weather today, RIDE! and enjoy being a "FREE AMERICAN", SLIM 951 217 8814
