Junior found Tom a 2004 FLSTF for a bargain price. “It was obvious to me that someone had started a project that they couldn’t finish for whatever reason. It was about 70-percent built,” Tom said.

When I got it, I started by taking the bags off, it had the big...

Zach Saligoe, co-owner of Atlanta Monster Cycles with his dad, Mike, is no stranger to this flat-lined Buell phenomena and had recently finished a Buell-based ride for himself. An admiring customer known only as Ainars was so jazzed by the result he wanted one too. “I told him to get a Buell and we’d use everything we could according to the style he wanted.
