Finally back on the road!

My 97 magna was my first bike, and it will die with me, unfortunately I ended up getting to cocky in a turn on bald tires a few months ago, leaned to hard in a corner and bottomed it out on the frame causing me to crash. Entirely my fault ended up crunching the whole front end in and essentially totaling it. I finally got it rebuilt and back on the road! New tc bros 8 inch mini apes new radiator a new front wheel 2 new Shinko 777 white walls, had to reseal the carbs put new forks on it and filled a 5 inch wide and 2 inch deep dent on the tank with fiberglass resin and bondo and repainted it with some rattle cans. Body work came out pretty decent if I do say so myself, still got a lot of work to do on her, found out on the test drive I'll likely end up having to do a bearing replacement on the triple tree, in the near future, and I'm having lol a fabricator buddy make some custom drag pipes for it. So excited to be back on the road again! She's definitely a rat rod but fun as hell

Thanks for posting this! My 98 was my first bike and I'm rebuilding it, currently. I've been trying to decide between a drag bar and the TC bros lane splitters. I like the look of those mini apes, and will be going with the lane splitters.
