    Project I didnt tell my wife I bought a motorcycle. 71 Honda scrambler.

    Tried to mock up the motor. All the brackets will need modification or to be totally remade. The motor is pretty much twice the size as the stock motor. Also threw on some cafe racer bars.

    Project I didnt tell my wife I bought a motorcycle. 71 Honda scrambler.

    New Harbor Freight stuff coming down the line.

    I think they bit off more than can chew right now. The huge harbor freight vegas show had a huge icon lineup and now we can barely keep what little we have in stock let alone a 1000 different stores.

    Dont blame you at all. The internal issues and frugality at the expense of both team and customers topay for that fourth yacht is wrong.
