    Thanks.

    I'm pretty set on building another for myself, now that this one runs and drives. I miss having one around to just ride whenever I want.

    Yes I do. I have an english wheel for tank building. That tank just happens to be a sectioned, narrowed, shortened, pie cut British peanut tank.

    I think you have prices on your site, but how much do you charge for a bike? whats the range or what do they start at? is there anything you can't build? :D

    on a serious note, what are your future plans? career? builder/fabricator or totally different?

    Range for a bike built to your specs, they start at $1500 for pretty basic like what you see there without as much detail, and no paint. Up to about $4500 with a lot of detail, powdercoat and paint. Its cheaper to buy one thats already built and been ridden for say, 6 months. You can usually get them from me or my buddy for under $1500. My orange bike sold for $1500. Would have charged $4500 to build it, maybe 5k because of the single sided swingarm.

    So far, I've been able to do pretty much everythign I've set my mind to. I like having broad horizons.

    As far as a career, no idea. I'm currently taking a class on rebuilding transmissions and rear axles. And I'm taking machining and welding. I want to be able ot get a job doing pretty much anything I want, if I don't open my own shop.
