In motion

I hate to give this view because the front end is so ugly but I have to give a before and after!

I have been, let's say gather parts, for a new bike I want to build, well not me personally building it but funding it! The bike has been in slow motion for about 8 months now because I was waiting for parts, especially my front end, and just not in a rush.

Well we finally have everything we need to get moving. Dirti has been mocking it up for the past few days and Big Ron just moved it to his side to start the fabrication.

Dirti & Big Ron moving it to the fab shop

I had planned on being a big part in the construction of the bike but I think this bike is beyond me! There is too much work that needs to be done to the frame, front end, wheels, and other stuff. This is definitely not going to be a bolt together bike. I know its in good hands though. Big Ron and Dirti will make it all work and hopefully I can get in there when it finally starts to go together.

I want this bike to be totally different from what normally comes out of Perewitz. Hopefully I can brake the mold!!

I will post pictures as it moves along. Let me know what you think?

J'Witz

This is kind of tough writing about me… I am, as you can assume, Dave’s daughter, Jody. I have been involved in the business for my whole life, well as soon as I was old enough to work. I have had other jobs as well. Probably one of my most favorite jobs was Dunkin Donuts. I had more fun at that job and make good $$ too! I really worked those customers for tips!

Kory, myself, and Aunt BB in Sturgis

Anyway I of course ride motorcycles. I have a couple of bikes myself. My first bike was a Buell M2. I still have one now, but I upgraded and got a Buell XB12 Firebolt. I love that bike! It is fun to ride, looks cool, and is American made.

My 63 Panhead

Recently we painted it, lowered it, changed the exhaust, and made a few other adjustments. I can’t be a Perewitz without a custom bike! It came out really cool. You’ll have to come by and take a look.

Wakeboarding at the cape

I have fun riding 50’s with Kory and the guys too. Although I am not as fast as them, it’s still a good time. When I’m not on bikes I love to go to the water. If it’s the fresh water, we are out in our boat on our lake down the Cape (Cape Cod to those non New Englanders). We usually go wakeboard and occasionally tube. I was just starting to get some height on my wakeboard and the cold weather came! Nuts. Have wait till next summer.

When I go to the ocean I like to surf! I haven’t been as many times as I would like to but I still got to go a few times. It is so much fun to ride the waves. My neighbor Tom, his son Luke, and I go and catch the waves in Eastham.

Another fun thing to do at the ocean is claming! You can get different clams for about 8 months! There are quahogs in the summer, then littlenecks, and then oysters. My mom, my friend Sandy and I went oystering this past weekend. Don’t ask me what we got because it wasn’t much but it was fun. The dogs come with us and run on the beach while we clam. I think they got the biggest catch of the day! A shark!!!!!
