Default "California Style" Softails

Hey all....I really dig what I call the "California style" Softails....slammed Deluxe maybe with Apes and wire wheels etc. Kind of a lowrider version of a motorcycle.

I want to write an article for my site featuring the mods that go into building this kind of bike and I need pictures and information. If you would like your bike included in the write-up then contact me via PM or send me an email to bpm2k @ comcast.net with as much detail as you care to provide.

As for pictures, I will take as many as you want to send, as long as they are high quality and at least 800*600. Focus on the features that make your bike a California style bike....a quality side shot and then any detail shots you would like to include.

Once the article is done of course, I will share.

Thanks.

If I am using the wrong term for these kinds of bikes then picture Anubiss or Blk n Chrome's bikes.....that style is what I am referring to. I dig em.

I beleive Dinger has such a bike. I think the style of pipes are called "Chollo's" ....otherwise the bikes are called "Gangsta's" (I think...I'm a long way from Cali)

This is Dinger's (he is from L.A.) great guy, have not seen him around lately...

He has beach bars instead of apes, but his ride quialifies for what you described, but very classy. Back when I saw his wheel setup I finaly decided to pull the trigger for mine.


Mimo.

All good bikes listed so far. I'll throw in luisruiz, also. And too bad OneWheel61 isn't a member here, he's got a badass bike.
