Hi everyone.

It's been a long ass time. How's everyone doing?
I've been very un-active for years, and I apologies. But I've had so much problems in life that I've been deep down in depression, anxiety. And a lot more. Over three years ago, I was somewhat homeless. I had problems with alcohol and drugs. I've slept outside, been eating from garbage bins. Even stole food from restaurants (They throw away decent food). I've also gone against and went to churches on Monday mornings to get food. I lost everything, I was so deep down there. Had trouble with police, criminal activities for cash, fights, drugs. Total chaos. I was on the brink of dying. I carry scars from my past I've left behind. Today I am grateful that I'm alive, I met a girl. Who lifted me up, her family really lifted me up, helped me so much that I now have a home, I'm engaged and pretty healthy, other than I have to depend on painkillers from time to time from my past. Back, knees, hip, shoulder, arms, hands. All broken. But I manage and just think about how I have it today, how grateful I am from cheating death. Also the woman of my life brings a smile to my face every single day. I couldn't be more happier. I have to live off of money I get from the state because I am not capable of working. It's not much, but it's enough for a regular life. I can go on about this. But I'm thinking you may not want to read so much.

But anyway, I hope you guys are all good and feel good and still looking sexy. Love you guys.

Hi, my ingame name is/was FrickinDave - and I spent alot of my time on this server - at around 2014, then I quit for some reason I cannot remember, sadly.

I recovered the password to this account, and checked all the messages and posts I have made on this forum and.....only one word can describe them -  Cringe.mp4

If anyone remembers me - say hi to me as I will jump into the server from time to time if I get no problems with the SA:MP, because I do recall having some all those years ago.

Sincerely - FrickinDave, Fr.Dave or whatever the f*** I was named in this server

From the topic title I suppose you guessed what was happening... Well been busy with life stuff but if you recall that 1979 sportster I acquired a while back... it blew up... took it apart piston rings fell out of it and front connecting rod you could grab and move up and down without the crank turning. Well something had to be done... did some research and came to the conclusion! A $3000 sportster will always be a $3000 sportster no matter how much money you put into it. So I did a thing! Came home with a fresh brand spanking new frame and started to assemble what they call a big twin. Got a local company selling me discounted parts because of the outsourcing of them for 95% of the parts. They sold me a motor, transmission, frame, and anything else I need to make this happen. Some things I am picking up used like fenders and using parts off the sportster to make it work. Still a work in progress but I went with simplicity and function over style. Setup is a Rigid frame (no rear suspension), wide glide forks that came with the sportster,  harley evolution motor (80cui I believe), harley 4 speed (kick start only), and going to maybe be converting it over to a magneto and points setup to alleviate some wiring. Started in September and this is where it stopped so far. Short on funds have a trip coming up that needs be saved for haha. Will get more pictures and maybe a video once it is running hopefully by spring it will be able to be moved outside and fired up. Stay tuned! https://imgur.com/a/urVto
