Other than the hard tail and exhaust I really like that bike. |

If they have put the same time into the bike as they did into the film then its done nicely! the black looks sharp! ,only downside is the extended swingarm ,no shock and no muffler |

He'll get almost as much for it as if it were stock. I like that slap shoe above the chain. |

Nice bike but the chain looks a tight as a guitar string. Wonder whats left of the bearing on Mainshaft 5th gear |

Had to look kinda hard to find anything I liked about it, but the license plate bracket is all drilled out with 'lightening holes' behind the plate, that's pretty cool. |

i think they ran out of gloss powder coat before the cam cover was done............everything else is so shiny........ |

What a f@ck up..... why ruin a perfectly good motorcycle, chain drive= destroyed gearbox bearings,hard tail= shit handling..buells are designed to go round corners or maybe he wants to drag race,why not do some sensible mods ie uprated rear shock, get rid of the 'banana gear shift' not for me sorry |

I don't know guys, I'm a M2 kind of guy and I think it's not too bad. The cam cover MUST be cut down and powercoated gloss black to match everything else. As far as suspension, just put a shock on it and your set. If you leave it as slammed as it is now, no worries about chain tension as it will get looser as the swing arm travels upward as its already past the pivot center. I dig the Model A style tail light. Looks like the turned off the mounting lugs on the left fork tube before they powdercoated it. It would be really easy to get this back to stock. Just need a shock and a swingarm and mount block. All powdercoated black of course... Seriously there have been MUCH worse "custom" jobs out there. Oh yeah, if you're going to play Simple Man, at least get all the notes correct! Your missing a bunch in the main lick!! (Message edited by bluzm2 on December 16, 2011) |
