As much as it pains me to say this, but those guys on tv can build a bike just as well as or better(but not better looking) than anyone on here. They have the equipment, supplies, parts, and fabrication abilities and knowledge to build a bike from scratch and end up with a show quality machine. However, they choose to build hideous beach-ball-tired-gay theme-bling mobiles with off the shelf parts to cater to the people with more dollars than sense or style. Sr is an old school guy who recognized a good business opportunity, and Jr capatilized on trends and themes to stay on the trendy bandwagon. Douche-y as they may be, and ugly as the bikes occ builds are, calling him a hack is pretty far off base. And its funny you should mention them, as I have a feeling that your bike is going to end up looking like it came fresh off of their lot.
hi guys,,, before i forget,,, in australia its 1/1/11...8.55am,,,so i hope the rest of all of you have a great holiday and safe new year.. now earily in 2010 at my local hick town car/bike show..a 50000 harley stretched and never been on the road in anger no oil no fuel again won the bike section .. and on the rear he had a 300 rear tyre.. and the bike stood up without the side stand.. now that really impressed me.. regards oldbiker
If the bike can't be ridden it shouldn't be allowed to compete.
