Well, it's not some cobbled together chopper. Alot of time and labor went into creating this bike. Its a poor mans Wraith. |

Yeah, that took some serious design and engineering to make it happen. I'm not a fan of most choppers but--as already posted--it's in the same theme as the Confederates which I happen to like. |

It needs round chrome pushrod tubes.I've always hated those black plastic things they put on the XB's.Which brings up another point,at least he didn't do that to a tuber. |

The style is not my taste, but the execution is well above average, If a road worthy XB was not destroyed I give it a +2 Nice Job.... I thought that it having a sprung rear wheel, and hiding the shock in the frame was quite novel.. The bars seem a bit low. I hope that he gets asking price... |

To me it looks like an answer to a question that was never asked...........total fail. Just another moron that took a perfectly nice scooter and thought he improved it. Reserve is over 15K,........ another dreamer. (Message edited by Jramsey on May 26, 2013) |

Many dollars and hours wasted. I can appreciate the fabrication but when all is said and done, it it just unique, not pretty, & certainly not able to handle like the donor bike. Just creative de evolution |

I like it, not really so much the front end, but overall I think its a cool bike. |

Cafe racer? I was sort of ok with it until the last picture of him sitting ON it. That just looked stupid to me. I'm a bit put off by the 'Look at Me-Style for Style's sake'. But if that's someone's $15K style,that's OK with me. I would go up and looked at it if it was parked, but not if he was on it or by it. |
