I don't understand why poeple take an excellent highway bike and do that kind of thing. Then decide to sell it. I guess it's a form of art.

No offence intended!

I like it, it's got a great swept look to it. It is also divverent than alot of the other custom Cory Ness knowck offs that are out there. Looks like he left the rake stock which keeps it rideable. For curiosity, what was it going for on Ebay$$ ?

I do like it, but like someone else said above, I prefer the stock bikes that have custom parts, but still look like original Harley's.

I've seen the bike firsthand. It's a great looking bike done with alot of quality work. They own a company making items for baggers. I forget the company's name right now. The backrest can be used for a passenger or swing forward for the rider.

I like it, to me that's what a custom bike is all about, not an OCC Big Dog whatever thing that you can't ride comfortably for more than a few miles.

I really like it....low...mean....and obviously still a harley. That's what makes it really cool! I would probably never go that radical....but I like the idea of taking some of the ideas and going that direction just a bit. Really love the "candy" color....I'm obviously biased towards a red bike.

I like the paint, the engine detail and the pipes.

I don't like the Wheels, the single front brake, the aircleaner, the bars and the seat.
