View Full Version : Back in Black
We built a true 15 day bike, its a nice scooter, no bullshit ,no gimmicks, beat hank young in 1/8 mile strip in Barona 8.40 @85mph to his 10.20 63mph.
rode 500 miles and lost on crowds choice.
hank built a cruiser bike style ,chitty chitty bang bang and was very finished,plated,detailed, even had time for posters to be printed before show, very nice guy.
was really a hard thing to pull off,glad I stuck to my style and didnt do anything silly just to please the kiddy's.
show will air in january. supposed to get 100,000 dollar fine for showing picture. sorry

Show it anyway, thats pocket change for a man of your caliber. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
So, did you come off as gay or REALLY gay during filming? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I wanna see how they edit and spin things to make one of you the "bad" guy!

I haven't seen either bike but judging from what you do and what we've seen from Hank it sounds like a good show. I like Hanks attitude and I like that he at least appreciates the style of "tradtion".
Instead of a showdown between two guys building psuedo-chopper smoothies it sounds like they picked two guys who aren't affraid to leave some of the ugly* stuff on the bike...
* - not my word, but the word of most bike builders who are always trying to hide/smooth out their bikes.
January is a pretty boring month for me - it usually snows about a foot and is 10 degrees below zero, sounds like the perfect time for a good bike show......
