Default Evil looking Fat Bob

Hey guys,

Looking for opinions and options on how to make my scoot look evil. Not just "oh thats badass" or hearing "cool looking scoot" No no, I want this bike to look like Hell spat this thing out
But I dont want to put flames or cover the whole thing in skulls.

Default Dead i

I call mine DEAD I. Not covered in skulls (1). And the reaper is there to send you straight down! Take a look, I hope it helps you. I also wanted a very DARK look. Your bike looks very cool. I love the painted lower forks. I have an appointment at the paint shop to do mine next Monday! Good luck and ride safe!

Tilt the bars forward
Ditch the big *** seat for a C&C solo or C&C Fastback
Ditch the bags and sissy bar
Powder the rims and rotors black
Wrinkle black powder the upper and lower rocker covers
Take off the stickers on the down tube
Oh and sigs to the forwards with some smoked lens

Evil? Why evil? Do you really imagine people making that comment about your bike?

If that's not the case then why not just determine in your own mind that it's ‘evil’?

It looks like the only thing it’s got going in the ‘evil’ direction is the bars… maybe (not a good camera angle).
You could chop the struts and swap the shocks for solid bars (slam it down as low as it can go), mount up a spring seat, remove the front fender. Get rid of the ***ot pin strip on the tank, lose the tank badges, and distress the tins with some sand paper.
Get rid of the $500 air cleaner… hell would never spit out some thing that pretty.
Remove the heat shields and heat-wrap the pipes. Paint the wrap black then take it to a car wash to power wash the wrap & make it look distressed.
Paint the wheels, jugs & drive pulley flat black & get rid of anything chrome... again, nothing pretty comes fom hell.
And most important… never ever wash it again, you know… let it go to hell and look like ****.
That’s the way it’d have to look before I’d think… “Hell must have spat this thing out”!

You sound like someone who’s maybe a little out of balance between looking at their bike and riding it. Your bike looks good the way it is, you obviously like riding it with all the storage you’ve added… be patient, the weather is just about to break so just go out and ride it man.

black or red wheels
black rocker covers
ditch the sissy bar, or get something super tall and custom.
ditch the saddlebags
get one of those very thin seats or ride without one!!!

but i think it looks pretty good overall the way it is, i hate bags unless i need them for a trip,

No flames or skulls ...??? Brimfire ... death ... desolation ... are key attributes of hell ... how are you gonna connote that without flames or skulls ...? Oh ... how about a deranged jester or something along those lines ...?

Alright ... I'm just yanking your chain ....

Just build a righteous sled, instead ... take some inspiration from what you see on here and in some of your favorite publications like street chopper, the horse, cycle source ... etc. ....

You've seen what you think 'works' ... just feel free to utilize 'best practices' and you'll do well ... if you don't know how someone did something ... just ask ... seems the guys on this forum are willing to share their knowledge and experience ....

Have "Freddie Cruger" painted on the side of the tank with his knife hand throwing up the finger. Sounds evil to me. Just a thought.

First douse it in gasoline then drive it off a cliff the ensuing explosion should give you the look you're going for....if it doesn't, repeat until it does.
