^^yeah that bike was one of the first i ever seen from crazyorange. that dude bought it from them. i want those pants! lol. yeah i'm psyched about the headlight SF, i really hope it looks right though on my trees. we'll see. either way, stand up **** brother! thanks again SF and thanks for the kind words Jose! i got a really funny video idea in mind once i get the fender squared away (which btw i might just try to bend the tab down on the frame to get a little closer to the wheel, if that dont work, i'm gonna get that spacer machined out) and my lic. plate bracket back on. gonna be a pisser!

Ok, the bike is looking sick man. Love the way it's turning out, especially that little fender. Well thought out. Can't wait to see it with the new SF headlight (you gotta love the people on this forum...well, most of them). And like Joe I'm waiting to see what you have in mind for the exhaust...

Wow..... I've seen some squirrely lookin' stuff done to bikes, but this **** takes the cake!!!
From the rear 3/4, looking at the bike's upper profile, it reminds me of Down's Syndrome.... Particularly the profile of the tank, which reminds me of Schlitzie Surtees...
From the side, the tank is WAY too small for the frame... Looks like they just slapped any ol' tank (one that doesn't fit) on so they could ride it...
The bars.... omg, the bars! They look like something a 14 year-old designed in welding class for his bicycle... Very little bow/bend, and zero creativity whatsoever; just hash some pipes together, cut the longer end short to make it even... Oops, I cut the long end too short, now they're uneven.... Oh well, cut the OTHER long end! Oops, did it again!! Well, this time I'll get it right........ **facepalm**
This thing looks like riding a jagged boulder down the highway would be more comfortable........
(Sorry, I just had to say something about it, and yes I found the aesthetics that displeasing, that I had to partially hijack....)
The "fender" isn't too terrible, imho... It sorta gives the no fender look, while keeping the majority of mud off your back..... Also, it looks like you'd have to fab that... Sorta reminds me of your standard Road King or other fancy-pants big bike rear lip, but with the sides cut off... Not sure where you'd find something like that, aside from either Crazy Orange, or diy...
Still, to each their own..... If you think the Schlitzie Bike is awesome, then by all means, ride on!!!

IMO of course...
CK's dead nuts on about the C/O tank, (down to the image) but I don't think he was talking about yours. That is the LAST tank I'd ever have anywhere near my bike. Not a fan of their bars either, but wtf cares what I think.
You are right about his being plain jane though too. Is that a f'king pillow!?!?! LOL
That said, your bike looks **** man, really dig it and lowering that rear stubby will look even better in my eyes. The exhaust will make it for sure. I think SF's headlight would be PERFECT...for narrow glide forks, not so sure on the WG front end.
Screw you all...cept Rog and Ergo. LOL...gotta respect our elders.
