Brad Andres offered it to me along with a bunch of other KR parts. Gas tank, shocks, fairing and other bits. I just assumed he rode it as a bike. He wanted too much money and it's not as good as a genuine Featherbed.
Dave, I use the Featerbed as a starting point as I need to comply with Historic Rules. The bike should be based on whaat was available before 1963. That rules out things like trellis frames or Dwltaboxes. Doing a "special" opens up the possibility of something that is not just unique, but works better then the factory stuff.
This is the main loop I start with. Very simple, fairly lightweight and strong.
The Sportster/K frame is not junk but it's not great either. What really lets the bike down is the brakes and suspension.
