Slimsfab bars for Hugo at T&H motorcycles

These are some bars made here at the fab farm for a guy by the name of Hugo,he operates a shop in pacoima,ca. Every now and again he call me for a few sets of bars to suit his builds. These shots show 2 angles so you can see how much pullback they have as well as a clean front view.The bars i make here are NOT mass produced,They get built one set at a time and carefully measured to your spec "one off". Thank you for checking my blog.If you are new to this scroll to the bottom of the page and click on older posts I have archives that go back for years!

slimsfab tank for Lucky

This is Luckys tank I fabbed for his sporty,He is in the process of putting color on his sportster,and i did not want his tank to look alike to most other frisco style tanks so...I added some light sculpting,I just rolled some 16 guage cold finished sheet into tubular shape and evenly trimmed his tank to accept my tubular panels,then welded them in,cleaned it up a bit,pressure tested it and sealed it. Done deal.simple,easy on the eyes,should look good painted!?%* I guess we will leave that to Tucker at "Soul Chicken"paint.In the pics you will catch Lucky and his kids, SLIM 951 217 8814

slims fab Stay gold O.G.

This is my first actual build back in the day!I got the frame from Negotiable Tim when I was young,It has had many different engine combos...yamaha,suzuki,honda,all sorts....the frame was meant for a shovel HD but I could never scrounge up the dough. So before it was common to run Jap motors(other than cb750), i thought I would do something different and run my yz 400 in it. It was beat and beat by me daily.I started to build bikes on the side to save up for the Shovel motor I never got,I rode this bike a long time in raw form before One of my strong influences (other than Shinya) at the time had just passed away...Johnny Vasco(johnny Chop) , they were having a memorial at the queen mary so i tore it down and re coated the bike in his honor Black and gold symbolizing His "Stay Gold" motto/way of life.I toured this bike to the horse "smoke outs and such events. After grenading the motor in the burnout box, I parked it in my home to rest.I have had this bike in my posession for 10 years and some.I have recently sold it to its current owner Casey Moir,the same guy that rolls the streetsweeper( my old Chevy V drive van). So The reason for this story is I have had numerous phone calls asking me Did you build this bike? Well fuck yes i did,a long time ago... And yes that is a chain driven chevy alternator.......

slimsfab 41 mm narrow trees

Here are some ex wide glide legs in some of my narrow trees....They come complete ready to bolt on with hardened fasteners and a hardened stem for 1 inch bearings. the stem is long enough for big twin frames.These trees accept your 41mm legs typically found on HD wide glide front ends and makes them super narrow.Because of the sheer girth of the 41mm legs when pulled together this far they appear really,really narrow especially when they are stock length!

slimsfab panel repair for Joshs chevelle

This is joshs chevelle,he had a rusty ass section on his roof letting water in and just plain getting worse over time...his two front fenders in the lower section were not solid either.So he trailered his chev over for sheetmetal repair..we took care of it,and he is probably putting his fresh drivtrain back in now...He is a streetracer and track drag racer,his "bandaid"engine yielded 11.60 et in the quarter,pretty fuckin impressive for a mild small block naturally aspirated! Here at the farm we are def not strangers to drag racers and their machines.Drag cars is what I did before bikes.SLIM 951 217 8814

slimsfab king sporty for dyna

This is a king sporty i put a new floor in and tunneled it for a dyna backbone, it went on a "club style" dyna after powdercoating.
