Not my style, but it really is an amzing bike with the level of detail put into it. As the plates said SHOWBIK, can't imagine it being anyones daily ride.... unless Uncle Sam decided to start pimp'in.

Funny stuff above!

I'm sure my bro thanks you for your kind words. Believe it or not, this is by no means a trailer queen. He rides this daily, and rides it hard!

That bike shows creativity and the skill to modify that bike is bounds beyond the nea sayers no doubt. The skill level is top notch and to be able to take a vision and make it happen is in itself respectful.

The coolest bikes are usually the ones that scream "I'm different". My guess is he's having lots of fun with it and that my friends is the whole idea.

I could of not said it better!

My Bro for sure thanks you. He's a member of the forum, but really more of a looker, not a poster.

He has these here more so, to protect the long, long fishtails. I think they are pretty cool myself!

Fishtails pipes do have a way of cutting your ankles up pretty good.

I can appreciate the effort that went into this bike. That said, it looks like something I would see a clown riding in the circus.....
