I have been wrenching on it quite a bit over the past week...got the mud tires installed on tuesday, did a tune up on it on wed as well as installed a push button starter switch. Working on the Blazer has given me something to do and to get my foot in the door as a builder...Spike has been making serious progress on a couple bikes. Bike #1 is an old Ironhead Harley with an old Amen savior chassis...It is officially the very first customer bike from S&M Customs...Bike #2 is a project that has been dubbed Mutant...it is a Suzuki GS750 that spike recieved in payment for bulding Bike #1. The blazer is my first official project as a co owner of S&M. Now...im sure you are looking forward to these....





Bike #1

Bike #2


Remember this is what i started with the blazer...




And this is what the blazer has evolved into so far...

          Hey Chris, I couldn't help but notice that ya got a license on the back of that Blazer. Glad you got that stuff sorted out concerning the Cadillac. ;) Seems like you're getting a start on the bike deal too! Kinda like the stance on that "Mutant" job. 8)

           Hope things go well for you,  Bill   ;)

Funny enough...the plate on the Blazer is the same one that caused the entire mess..but this time i managed to transfer it over within the first day of ownership of the truck....I like the stance of Mutant as well the one thing im concerned about is the angle of the rear shocks but that has been discussed a few times. i can sorta see how it would work sorta like a traction bar but on a bike...limited travel but enough to give it some suspension at the same time.
