If it's photobucket open the pic you want and to the right you will see 4 URLs copy the "Direct Link" and then click "image" under the Instant UBB Code, paste the Direct Link in the box that opens.

Good looking bike man. That thing looks hardcore. Did you just fill the holes/indents in the rear fender with body filler?

I welded junction box knockouts over the holes on the inside of the fender then my cousin the painter filled them a little at atime with bondo also he put a layer of this stuff on the inside over the welds Ithink he said it was called All Metal

Very nice overall look. Hard tailing it, that rear fender kills; any plans to go all out with a custom rigid frame?

Bitter End makes some wild frames. I really like the look of their Bootleg, apart from the wide rear and lowered seat rails. I would like to see the Bootleg frame with more traditional topline and rear section.

Don't like it as much as the Bitter End stuff, but the more sources the merrier...

I sent an email to lowbrow customs today and asked them about making a frame for the Hinckley twins. Here's the reply... Quote:
Hey Dave, we have talked about it, and I am actually working out the purchase of a stock Hinckley bonneville frame at the moment, which will hopefully lead to a hardtail set up for them .It may be a while before it actually comes to fruition, but we are working on it! Thanks Tyler

I like the more traditional look myself. the picture I have in my head has a king tank like a spo$%^ter but I have also considered getting somone to fab me up a weld on or bolt on rear section. Im workin on some nicer struts but I know ill never be satisfied till it has that authentic look.
