SINISTER INDUSTRIES? Baggers?


Yup, seen some of their stuff. Don't have much use for a flame thrower but I may go to a 23" wheel. I also like their "chin" piece and the sinister headlight bezel.

Alright, we haven't quite gotten to the build yet but here's an update on progress made to date.

1. 99% of the parts are on order, some have 3-4 week lead times. I expect there will be at least one major piece lagging. Just not sure which one it will be.
2. Decided to go with a 23" wheel, single rotor, 6 piston caliper, chrome lower legs, raked triple tree
3. Removing the engine guard
4. Extended bags and rear fender
5. Hidden antenna
6. 10" Yaffe OEM Monkey Bars (same as on my CVO)
7. Audio/Amplifier/Speaker upgrade (Yaffe - Road Glide House Party system)
8. iPod Interface Adapter
9. Upgrading to Big Bore 103"
10. Too many other little odds and ends to list here that add up to too many $$$$

Started receiving some of the body skins. Will be receiving the balance of the body skins this coming Monday.
Danny Bally, my custom paint and body man is ready and apparently happy to get started on the project next week.

DesertHog can't wait to see more progress, have you picked the main color for the bike?

Not yet.. I know it will be some sort of "stand out" color/design. Danny says it will reveal itself and I believe him. Frankly, I expect that there will be several colors and we are trying to stay away from some of the typical design combos/themes that seem to be prevalent on the custom baggers I've seen out there.

Colors would be the hardest thing for me to decide. Colors and graphics that haven't been painted to death and that you still love would be a challenge. You just have to trust those painter guys...

Then again, there's something cool about grey primer.

I thought they looked familiar. Cameron and his crew build the nicest bikes out there. The attention to detail that he and his team have are just unreal. Cant wait to see your bike when its done
