Update from Jeremy Brooks "When you got HOURS into cleaning up welds and smoothing the joints out and taking mid steel to 600 grit. But knowing you still got the other side to do.

Cause body filler on frames is for lames!"

New Late Submission! # 26
From Rusty Savage, "My '97 Heritage Springer was wrecked a while back and I parted it out except for the Frame and Springer. Frame was straight except for the swingarm and changed the front fork leg and rockers on the Springer and started all over. Big spoke wheels, 23 front, 6 speed tr**ny and converting a screaming eagle 110 to fit the frame. Added a set of stretched tanks, steel fenders. Planning an old school FL style look with early saddlebags, Spring seat with same birch white and red paint scheme."

From Gary Winebrenner, "Shovelhead, ratchet top/cow pie/ 5 speed depending on what I whittle on for fitment. Narrow aluminum fenders and the rest will tell its story as it comes along."

From Adam Weaver "At 21 years old, Adam Weaver out of Las Vegas, Nevada is stepping into the custom bike scene with a build that blends legacy, grit, and modern vision. Currently working alongside his father, Robert Weaver, Adam is transforming a 2009 Sportster 883 into a machine inspired by the raw attitude and stripped-down style of 1970s-era bikes—reimagined with fuel injection for today’s performance demands.

The build is being brought to life with custom paintwork out of Revved Up GraphiX in Creswell, Oregon, tying craftsmanship and family effort into every inch of the project.

Adam’s journey started on a Royal Enfield, but his passion has always been rooted deeper—shaped by stories and hands-on time in the garage with his grandfather, Nick Catalano. Growing up around bikes, fabrication, and long hours turning wrenches, Adam developed not just mechanical skills, but a respect for the culture and history behind every build.

This project isn’t just about creating a motorcycle—it’s about carrying forward a family tradition. With his grandfather’s influence and his father by his side, Adam’s Sportster is a tribute to where he comes from, and a statement about where he’s headed."
