rick that fork on the muscle bike is brilliant. one of those "wow that is cool and would not be that hard to do sorta thing." very nice and that other one with the reversed mtb fork is great too love the flowing lines.

Someone should start a Springer Gallery! There continue to be some cool real and faux springers even in BO7.

Are you using a threadless head tube? you could allso mount risers on the triple tree for the handle bars.
I'm working on a leaf spring for a new build and here is a pic the last one I made for my Hawthorne.

Decided to try a hand at making a home made springer for my ole' Huffy Porkchopper. Came out OK. I'm honestly on the fence about it being on the bike. Maybe if it were black (to match the bike's color), then perhaps it would appeal to me more than it currently does. Also, the front fender is back on the bike :lol:
