Hehe, according to the universal negative feedback of that forum, seems he really got it right on the bike and battery box attitude statement. Looks more practical than the Norton HyRyder if it comes down to judging bad judgment. hobot

Feel free to buy it, gentlemen--my little black E-Bay chopper on Craigslist that sold for full price on Valentine's Day proved to be a blue-collar IRA of the first water

If I was Windy, I'd put that front wheel on a cafe racer and replace it on the chopper with a 19" spool.

Not quite my style of chopper but sure got the right spirit to offend everyone but the 1%'rs. Don't think ya can steal ebay photo's so catch it while it lasts.

unlike some chopper builders I tryed to make to not just look good but to also be safe to ride. the owner lives at my campground in the mountains of NE Tenn and rides like he stole it, so much so he has drug the exhaust .the touch down point is at the weld for the reverse cone on the muffler.
