Sean the silver that you see is actually the Dunlop stickers that were just starting to com off. That one sold for almost $38,000.00. Even the front end is HD,1948 SPRINGER with the bars and throttle intact and re powder coated. What appears to be the oil tank is really where the electronics and battery are. The pipes are huge that he built and bent himself,cermamic coated white. |

I think it's under the seat. No? Love the Cragar SS type wheels. Very hot rod meets custom bike. Looks very beefy! |

Sorry but the length of the bike alone spoils it. Rocket |

Well I think the fact that he built it all himself in his own garage (not a shop, but the garage to his house), without 2 Billion dollars worth of high tech gizmo's, makes it that much better. It isn't as long as the picture makes it look. |

I like the clutch on the "suicide" shift. That's the way I'd set up a Bobber for myself. |

Lake 06's don't have oil tanks.Thats underneath.Rocco's right Rocket the bike really isn't as long as you think.Once your on it though the fit is really nice. The velocity stacks were a real treat to do I remember him saying. They are two stacks off of a old race car that he cut,welded together and then had to make a plate so it could be mounted to the injection system.Then it was ceramic coated. Would you believe he dreamed this bike up in bed one night?? |
