Yeah that is one nasty looking bike. Got to love how the passenger seat hangs over the rear fender LOL! And WTF is up with that shifter set up? LOL! OMG it pulls wheelies, but who would want to on that think? I like the rat bike look, but that just looks like ****!

That's not just bad, it's an abortion.....
He also doesn't know the difference between a jockey shift and a suicide clutch.

Put the tools down and slowly back away from the bike...

That thing is beyond horrible. What could have possibly possessed him to think that shift/clutch set up was a good idea?

I'm willing to bet that the shifter is wrapped black pipe.

To each his own man. i dont think it is the worst bike ive ever seen. i bet the guy had a whole lot of fun wrenchin on it and comin up with stuff that no one else does on their bikes. honestly if you re-did his jockey shift and and took off that passenger pad it wouldnt be that bad of a bike.

I would have thought it would be popular here, it just needs real tall apes and the gas tank lifted 6 inches.
Well, maybe paint the black pipe shifter flat black...

Iron pipe on an iron, what is wrong with that?
