Bloggin' again!

I let this go for awhile, but I realized I like blogs way better than Instagram. Blogs are more substantial and enjoyable than Instagram in my opinion. Alots happened since I last posted (back problems, purchasing a business, car stolen, fatherhood etc). Long story short, I sold my '77 FXE out of frustration and depression about my protracted back injury. Its been a dark year for me personally, but Im seeing some light at the end of that tunnel. My back has been healing slowly, but it seems to be getting better, so I decided to buy another bike. Super pissed at myself for selling my beloved Shovelhead, but I was not in my right mind at the time, drinking WAY too much to ease the pain and crushing depression and anxiety related to my back. Oh well, no looking back! I decided to buy a pre-2004 Sportster because I think they retain most of the lines of the original ironhead Sportys they descended from, Plus there's thousands of them out there for cheap. I scraped up enough money to buy an ugly yellow (i hate yellow) 2000 Evo Sporty 883 Hugger. It was pretty cheap (offered him $2700)and had the 1200 conversion, low miles, great shape and ran good, so I decided it would be a fun challenge to a) Make it look like a cool, classic Sportster and b) make it actually ride comfortably for long distance riding. Plus, I love Sportsters. I Know no-one see's this blog, but I realized posting this stuff is a kinda therapy for me, like screaming into the void.
