Other hobbies?!

Added 1" risers and handle bars to the bike. I am torn between 2 looks. I have 10" mini apes and Drag bars. I have sat on the bike hours each one and cant decide. I think I may go with both and put quick disconnects for the brake line so I can change it out haha.

Soon welding will start and Ill be adding the tank, seat and rear fender.

Drag bars would be my choice. The handling with apes is so distorted, plus I'm old so my hands would be falling asleep in no time if they were above my head
 
I'm a fish nut thru & thru. Bass fishing is my real hobby & way more expensive than reefing.

You guys all have cool hobbies, I collect stamps, MTG cards, used to play tournaments when I was younger. Now I prefer to go backpacking, every year I take my dog out and hike 100 miles of the North Country trail that runs past my town. I also collect slugs and snails, but that's more for work than just a hobby.

Magic? I used to love playing that game on camping trips in boy scouts.

This is my plan but very open especially if I find a wrecked bike with a running engine. (I am struggling finding a motor :/)
-113CI engine.
- 6 speed ultima
-32 amp charging system - stator, rotor, regulator
-3" open primary
-1.4KW starter
 
ran into some issues last night... the risers I bought are not tall enough. Returned and bought 3" risers :( kinda ruins my shorty look.

Still cant decide on handlebars... So wife came up with an idea, get the bike running and rideable. start with the apes, ride for a week, and if you don't like it you can cut down the cables and make it fit the drags.

Another issue happened too :(
my throttle - whiskey throttle does not fit my 1" bars either of them. So I need to return that too, thought I think this one is defective because its a 1" throttle and everything fits minus the clamp. so whateves.

Aside from reefing, great hobby. Fun to brew, fun to drink... Good all around! [emoji12]

way way cool! I want to brew my own, but don't have the space. Love it though, send a batch my way.
 
I am a pin head! image.jpeg

Is that your warehouse? if so I am mad jealous. My dream home is a warehouse in a city. the house part would be loft in the top. and the bottom is all play haha. HUGE HUGE kitchen for the wife, garage, bike area, workout area haha.

My father has a pinball machine from 1969, all I remember from is the head board of it has a blue car with a guy on fire sitting on the hood.

Thanks, wish it was easier to ship beer. [emoji6]
A couple years back I got first place In an American Homebrewers Association regional competition, but didn't end up winning the Nationals. Still was cool to go and be part of the convention.
