See, I never claimed to be a rebel. I just put on what I like. Don't care what others think. Though, that in itself is rebellious.

 

Damn skippy.


It may be 3 times as expensive at times, but I sure feel good about it and that's the only one that exists. There may be some that are similar out there, but not the same.

 

Dude's remember some people think that your Nightster is a chick bike. Cuz their idea of cool is different. Just because you think something is cool, does not make it universally cool. Coolness is in the eye of the beholder. And like I said, that's what makes this sport great. Seems funny to me that anyone would take offense with a comment about not thinking that what they consider cool is cool to everyone. I know guys who think that a Softtail dripping in chrome is cool, and blacked out Sportsters aren't. That's their opinion. You may think that jacked up headlights and flipped mirrors on drag bars is cool. Great, that's your opinion. Have at it. It's your bike, and what anyone else thinks shouldn't have any bearing on it.

And you missed the "rebel" point. A rebel is someone that goes against the norm. To be rebellious means that you do things differently from others. If your "rebellious" bike looks like every other "rebellious" bike, then it's not rebellious. Heck, if Harley starts building a bike that looks like your "rebellious" one, then they've just made it normal. Don't get me wrong, here, I like your bikes, I like what you've done. But it's not my style. Doesn't make it wrong, just not for me. My opinion. All I meant was that if your Nightster goes from looking like every other stock Nightster to looking like every other custom Nightster, then how is that being a "rebel"? Now, if you make it look NOTHING like all the other bikes on this forum, then you're being a rebel. It's like the guy that takes his V-Rod and adds hardbags and a Road Glide fairing, that's fairly rebellious, unless everybody starts doing it.

And I never claimed to be a rebel. That was the OP.

 

Get over it and move on.

 

But you ARE however, posting on threads that apparently don't even interest you, commenting that since people are sharing ideas and a few other people like the idea and decide to do the same mod, it has something to do with not being rebellious (whatever that even means). I think buying a bunch of mass produced bolt-on MOCO brand ACCESSORIES is slightly more conformist than actually coming up with an idea, fabricating it yourself, and taking pride in the finished product. To me, modifying a bike isn't about how many bolt-on goodies you can get your hands on. If someone compliments me on one of my mods and says, "Thats cool, where did you get that?" It's much more satisfying to say "I MADE it." Rather than saying, "I bought it at Harley World." JMO.

 

Ugh, and so it begins...

 

Wow...this came out amusing. I wrote this late last night, and I must say I was a little buzzed and tired.

When I made the "Rebel" statement, In my mind I was trying to sound how I think Will Farrel (SNL) would of said it in a hard core but cheezy funny way.

In other words they were actually words out of my ***, So anything I said or say again in the future does not entirely represent Slacker Customs or any of it's affiliates.

Enjoy these pics of some REBEL MONKEYS:

 

That bike would look sweet if the rebel monkey just raised the headlight a little.

 

Then he would just be a regular conformist monkey...

 

Then why did you feel it was necessary to tell everyone what you thought?? Also, I am pretty sure the OP was laying on the sarcasm pretty thick.
