Over the Winter, and hopefully finishing up while I am in Seattle getting my Kidney Transplant (that will be a whole month ordeal....) my motorcycle mechanic and builder (who recieved a pretty decent lazer sighted 45ACP and a bunch of ammo in trade for his work here) is finishing up the turbocharger add on and some cosmetic stuff to give my bike ('03 Harley Roadster) a WW ll Warbird look to it. We are adding old ammo cans to the rear fender struts for my luggage bags, a SS Canteen for an oil bag for the turbochargers oiling system, some flying tiger teeth and eyes motief, and other touches.

What we would LIKE to do, to really set this bike apart, is use a couple of old artillery shells with about a 2.5-3.5 inch I.D for my exhaust pipe and turbocharger intake tube.

Era, original caliber, country of origin not terribly important. He will cut, chop, weld as needed to marry the parts together. Only requirement being at least a 2.5 inch ID and in not rusted out condition.

Whatchagot?

Thanks in advance.


Pre-organ transplant but concerned with a turbocharged HD and getting it ready for you to rock out on with a WWII era motif post-op, eh? God forgive me, but I have but this: if some deserving child or young adult who'd give anything to have a shot at life with a desperately needed transplant loses out to you on the list of recipients, well, man, that, to this reader is... a tragic and horrific injustice. frown


The stoopid fug actually actually thinks his 1/8 mile wonderbike is a RACE BIKE as mentioned numerous times in his postings.
Next he'll be wanting to mount a bazooka to the handlebars.

I'm thinking he's the biggest squirrel at the track
