Love your work. You ever watch American Chopper on the Discovery channel? I'd love to have a one-off Hog with a huge rear tire, see the size of that rear fender?

Nice work.
A buddy of mine just had his flame work done on his custom hog.
It's Cinnamon base and a green candy over - then flamed.
I haven't seen it yet - but trying to get over there.

ps - You are welcome to a nice ski vacation in NH next year - about the time mine will need flames applied !! :lolg:

:cheers: :thumbs:

I have watched that american chopper show and I have a very hard time with the prices that these bikes cost. The performance is decreased. The reliability is decreased.



I do think that your talent is great. Don't get me wrong on that. I can see why people work on them and its a good hobby so in that respect I can understand it somewhat.

I just don't see spending the kind of money that people do when you can buy something else that out performs it in every respect.

Although on the same note I can't see a "hells angel" type biker riding a sport bike. :lol:

Has anyone seen a sport bike (like the above) with a sweet paint job? They all seem to look the same...
