Jim (HD-Dude) Makes it into American Bagger
« on: May 18, 2007, 01:59:04 AM »

Our good friend and wrench Jim (HD-Dude) got mentioned in American Bagger this month!  When I first saw this bike it was a blue wreck and in a bunch of boxes.  After a lot of hard work, I remember seeing the completed bike without the fairing.  Last weekend I was at Arlen Ness' shop for his anniversary party and the finished bike was on display.  I stopped to talk to the owner Paul and he showed me the article.  Jim is mentioned in the second to last paragraph, and the bike is on the cover and centerfold as well! 

Way to go Jim!  It's great to see you get some of the recognition that you deserve!

Very nice that they gave credit where credit is due.  Congratulations and I wish you lived here, for purely selfish reasons.

Alright Jim, congratulations! :2vrolijk_21:  It's about time.......took em long enough.

I don't care for the colors either, but I'd like to see that bike when the bags are done.
