Greetings! Any comments on springers sold by 45 Parts Depot vs. V-Twin? I am looking to get a +2 Inline BT(all-chrome) springer, but as with all project builds...want to get it right (almost) the first time! Any suggestions, greatly appreciated.

I do not have any experience with springers, but the products from 45partsdepot are first class.

panhead, by the looks of their website...they appear to be into qual products. Have you ordered something from them...any problems and/or turn-around time?

I have bought a diaphragm clutch. Turnaround time was quite fast, because I paid them a visit :D

I started my project about 3x yrs ago...basically a pan based bike. Without a parts bike and/or donor bike avail....I started piecing together things one bolt at a time. Needless to say, the reference books acquired so far...are a big help! I guess you could say, time isn't a factor here. I've gotten parts from all over the U.S...so the customs, shipping & currency exchange is worthy of a book in itself! Take Care.
