The killer is, we got around 15 inches a couple of weeks ago, and due to warm weather and rain right before Christmas, it was almost all gone on Christmas day.

It was completely gone yesterday and don't cha know,........another storm today.

Hey, I'm looking through the Australian biker magazine called "HEAVY DUTY", and without a doubt, they love WCC down under.

Aside from the cover and a 6 page, center fold pull out, feature article on the Air Stream side car, there are ads for WCC parts dealers, WCC apparel dealers, and Jesse himself has a regular page called Monster Garage - layin' it down with Jesse James.

Here's a couple of the ads.

I was a WCC fan long before the world got involved when Motorcycle Mania aired.

I never planned on buying a CFL frame to build, but the big sale happened and I couldn't resist. I had just finished tearing my Fatboy down and reassembling it so I already had something to ride. The chopper was going to be a, take my time, find great deals, and finish it when ever that happens, kind of project.

I like the OG CFL'S, with the battery box/ oil tank combo, foam covered, fiberglass seat pan, hidden battery, Hell Bents, etc.......

I love the look of the drop down battery and bare bones seat pan type bike, but now so many people went that way, my OG style build will end up being the "unique" one in the parking lot,....I hope.

I have also read the article in Hot Bike about the S&S pan head CFL II made for S&S, and Jesse's next project for them is putting their new X-Wedge engine in,........get this,....the new Dominator....Swing Arm Frame.

It's going to be fuel injected, all carbon fiber bodywork, chrome molly frame, a super light weight, total rider.

I don't really have one favorite but I have always liked this El Diablo.

Even though it's not a CFL, it has the stance I'm after with mine.

Lots of up stretch, dual down tubes, regular seat, forward controls, long front end,.........and I love the color combination.
