To each their own but you wouldn't catch me riding it. There is no flow to it at all.

Looks like a scary welding experiment, toss the frame and you could have a nice stock shovel

It reminds me of the bikes we had in the 70s.

I've seen worse, but I have a real issue when people do really stupid things to a bike. Things like replacing the shocks on a swingarm with struts. If you don't want suspension, get a hardtail frame and go from there.

I'm surprised that someone hasn't taken offense to you taking offense to it so far?

Most of the time any time you really express your opinion, which remember is just your opinion for what ever that is worth, someone wants to defend the other's justification for doing what they did and then basically say what a jerk you are for expressing your opinion.
I kid you not.

So back to the bike: LOLOL.
It looks like a cobbled up POS to me.

I can't stand the choppa/bobba thing, or the WCC thing.
That is so yesterday..

You no longer have the right to claim that. You've lost one more trait that keeps you from being part of the flock...
