Boring stuff lately. Rewired and fixed a few mistakes. Tailights work now!

Next Friday I will start putting on the diamond plate pieces. I will be posting progress. Please let me know if it looks to “bling”. Not going for that. Will paint them black then. Thanks in advance!

Let me know what you think:
I added diamond plate to the side, steps, and floor.
Front hood, firewall, and “bed” cover.
The spare will mount to the front.

Finally finished forming and mounted the diamond plate nose. I think it turned out great and will protect well.

Rolled it out to do more finish work. You can see the nose better.

Hi Sportster fans.
Sorry to say I have to put my Sportster on the market.
You can find it in the classifieds.
Had a blast on this forum. Thanks again.

This is probably a dumb question. I browsed through and didn't find the answer.

Was it possible to build a Sportster as a kit, from a set of plans?

Smart answer - yes. A number of them were built from plans.
