Maz and the Widowmaker

Post by Maz »

Hi Guys, I originally built the Widowmaker about 10 years ago but never quite finished her because of my divorce, so she found herself going from one custom shop to another until eventually my good friends over at So-Low Choppers put her on the road.

Now she has come home to Mummy Maz for final detailing and tuning ready for a full season of shows and more importantly RIDING :dance:

SELF INTRODUCTION: My passion for motorcycles is only outdone by the passion I have to be an awesome dad to my incredible son. I am a professional welder in my day job and have worked in said profession for almost 25 years. I was a member on this site a couple years ago, but as life sometimes gets in the way (and I finished the bike I was building) I took some time to enjoy a little time of from fab and weld work on my bike to help out a few friends with their projects. This sure was pivotal to the success of my first build and was always a source of inspiration and incredible sport from several key members. My first post was answered by Gary himself and gave me a real push to get going on my project...Mr G. I still enjoy riding it today...it always turns heads. But IM starting to get restless and have gotten the itch to start building a new project. It seems my girlfriend wants a trike and my first stop was CBH. Since I now live in an my boss has let me use as small back room in or shop with access to all our tools ...good dude. Well that's about it...here's to reading many posts and meeting my fellow enthusiasts. TTWHTD.

SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

Good to run it in, you and the owner will know it's ready for use right away, and a proper break in.

long time since I posted on this build, I had intended to run the motor in and then do some updates on the frame and controls etc, unfortunately we discovered a serious problem and had to strip the motor down..... found the engine builder had fitted the wrong cams, followers and shims, sooooooo we had to replace most of the top end...... got it all back together now and should be starting the running in process any time about now... :auto-dirtbike:
