A few of the Half Fast Chicago guys are teaming up to build a wicked Ironhead sporty, and are "blogging' their progress if anyone wants to check it out/keep track of the build  --->
Should def. be a badass little scoot once all is said and done...

Enjoy !

I allready sold the CL450 I bought a few months ago in prep for the next build, a hardtail Sporty "cafe/speedster" bike. I know most "cafe" bikes have rear suspension, but I envision a low and long-er hardtail frame, 23'' front and 19'' rear, lots of rake, clip on bars with NO clutter, no gauges, etc..Gonna be flippin sweet, just need to find a bike to start off with 1st..

sweet project. I'm gonna keep an eye on the build. I'm kinda stuck on my own iron head project. Looking for new ideas and inspiration. Want to go cafe but dont want to make it look like everybody's. thanks for the link.

The guys have made HUGE pregress on the bike in just a few days.
Seems like one of those projects you always hear about going together perfectly.
Hopefully my Sporty build will go just as smooth (once I get a bike to tear apart)..
