Yeah, all stuff aside that's a really cool thing he's got goin... best of both worlds in my book. Hope he makes it to where doing what he does keeps him happy and paid... I know what it's like to stress over something, and for him to get his breath of relief in the form of a sick bike that he could sell for 100 grand is awesome

IMO those style of bikes are better suited to the "Harley" sound. Eventually I will have a chopper and it wont sound like my F4i

He needs to slow down a little, it sounds like hes getting a little ahead of himself.
Wanting to produce a couple 1000 bikes and sell them at $80K to $150K, depending on his clientel. Seems a bit pricey, sounds more like greed to me.
He should check out Street Fighter magazine, based out of the UK. He would see a dozen bikes like his, all shapes and all sizes. The bike scene in the UK is 1000 times more popular and more radical than in the US. Its StreetBike heaven over there.

All said, I like his bikes, they are original using the Busa drivetrain, everything else has been done before.

Even if i cant take it over 110mph 'cuase she might blow, how many 17 year old Jap bikes do you see running around?
Not many thank god, jap bikes were just ugly 17 years ago. Custom harley is nice, which one? Uncle of mine has a shop up in your neck of the woods, in Dublin actually and he built a jet bike using a small gas turbing from a helo. Made one hell of a noise and it could do more a bit more than 110. Looked alittle sleeker than this guys' bikes. And like MikeZQSS said, hope this guy makes it, at least he seems to have a good head on his shoulders...for now.
