Hall Bro's Rigid Shovelhead

Bryan Hall did the hardtail section himself (which turned out flawless) and built the rest of the bike in just a couple months. You can see bits of the build on his blog,  http://kstreetgarage.blogspot.com/   I love the bike of course, but what really showed me his talent was yesterday when he and a few friends came to my shop to do a repair job before heading home. Rather than waiting on me while I was flapping my lips to someone else, he pulled out  my welder, set up the torch,  laid on the floor and welded a friend's coil mount back together . . . but never had to ask a single question about my welder or set up (having never previously used my model/year welder). My point is that a lot of people can "weld", but good welders are confident and can adapt.

Brian Branch's England Shovelhead

Brian shared his finshed shovelhead, which I really like for the obvious reasons just look at the photos. Functional, simple and clean. Perfect bike for actually riding several hundred miles. Brian wanted to make note of his friend Carl who did most the work.

Pulls up to the shop and asks.. "why does my bike accelerate when I make turns"
