Might just be me, but "SH!TWAGON" painted on the front of the bike is in bad taste.

IMO, most of theRoadglidersthat are on this forum built theirs better than Jesse did.
I was thinkin' the same thing (before scrolling down to see your response) but thought it "might just be me..." Hmmm... I'm thinking ol' Jesse could learn a thing or two from a certain moderator on this board who hails from the great Land of Lincoln... Now THAT is a nice 'Glide....

Nothing on that bike allows me to believe Jesse James owned it or did the work on it.

Looking up the vin/registration might show a "Jesse James" owned it, but not the WCC Jesse James we are all thinking.

That seller is pulling a fast one...I just know it.

That is one ugly RG! I don't think there will be any bids on that bike at that price!

Would never buy something like that.It would mean a lot more to me to build it myself.

...I am sure if Jesse wanted to build a hot rod bagger today.......really build one......it would make mine look silly.

Thanks SoCal. That is the best compliment you could give someone.

I am sure that is Jesse's RG. Like I said, I saw him on that bike or one exactly like it, including the name, on one of his shows and at the time hot rod baggers were not common so it was cool, at least to me.

The funny thing is that Jesse could care less what anybody thinks and his attitude proves it. He seems to love the controversy and naming the bike has everybody talking.......smart man. Isn't his aftermarket line called "Pay up Sucker"? I think there is a not so subliminal message in there from Jesse. Say what you want, he is talented and builds more one off stuff the hard way than all ofOCC's aftermarket bolt-onbikes combined.

Remind me why this bike special because JJ owned it. It looks like crap, maybe his wife did the work on it!

Met the man at his shop in Long Beach. Before all the TV and other BS, he was a great person to talk to and be around. He personally cares less about any stock HD and shows it with this bike. Just something to tool around and abuse! He has always done the with stock bikes he acquires. Throw on some stupid paint and ride it to death. He reserves his work on bikes he really cares about and those are all hand made!
