Having built bikes for a long time, but for others. I have found you are better off showing the customer a picture of what he think he wants and going from there. I would never ever cut a guys pride and joy down. My opinion is only my own. In saying that I have noticed on a few forums I have been on the some peeps are on a mission to voice their opinion, and in doing so dont make any friends. Oh and dont think I didn't do it too, but looking in a guys eyes when I opened my big mouth deff made me think more about what I said. Thats why fb, twit, and other forums and social sites can hurt people emotionally, you cant see the hurt !( written objectively )
