Suburban brings it out on a regular basis when they have events at the store or big sales. They have a few other shop and customer bikes they bring out from time to time as well. It's very nicely detailed when you look at it up close, almost to the point that you wouldn't think they actually hillclimb it. You could probably slam a drag slick on that bike and have a lot of fun as well. |

Nice pipe location. Already has chain drive so just fab a decent bash plate for it and get the stock swing arm back on it and I would love to run the fire trails on it. Oh yeah, you can keep the bottle! LOL Was at Suburban yesterday and they have a pretty nice selection of Buell parts and accessories hanging on the wall in the parts department. Assume there is even more in the back room. |

Try the one off the Swedish Vacu-pump in your closet...the one that says "Property of Austin Powers"... |

Motorcity hd/BUELL representing at Bike Night Royal Oak MI 2nd bike in is the Citycross. I must say I really like it in person. The panels aren't as transparent as it looks in pics. Yes my XB12SR is hiding at the end of the line...it felt like the dirty kid in the family pic |

Torqer its really nice to see what taggers can do when they have permission, to bad some jealous ar5ewipe as to go and screw it up (as seen in the last pic) (Message edited by wyckedflesh on August 06, 2004) |

Yep. That is certainly art. It is hard to believe it's all done with spray cans and torn cardboard. The jealous ar5ewipe is a rival graffiti boy "dis'ing" the artists who did the piece and telling him to get back to his part of town..."Buckhead" (the money part of town). |

Oh I know well what the dis was all about, but if he wasn't jealous of the mad skilz he wouldn't have been worried about the piece being in his part of town cause he would have been the one gettin' paid instead of someone else |

Rooster tails 40' high & it was just screaming. |

All four sides of this building are done. There are some smaller ones on the other side that look killer. Even though it was a Sunday there were too many cars in the way to get a picture. This guys work is all over town. He used to have a URL as a "sig" but that's been replaced by his phone number. The web site was awesome Too bad it's gone.

Hey Rick, saw it on Ebay under custom motorcycles. I think it was like a pre production sale. |

The American Cafe bike looks so old school. Too cool. Many old Norton Manx, Triumph's and Velocette Thruxton's never looked that good! |

Yeah, and with a few minor cosmetic changes, there is the StreetTracker I have been searching for! |
