The dude Kris Krome who built the R6 bobber just finsihed this thing.

Cool work of art and shows talent but can't say I like it.

With the right paint it would look good. The pepto pink makes me a little sick. Why people put rediculous paint jobs like that on anything puzzles me.

I agree on the icky paint, but do you have more pictures?

this is the only other one i took.

Wow, I hope it comes with a lifetime supply of earplugs.

Interesting. First chop I've seen without the god-awful ugly oil cooler hanging out there. Paint is debatable but I'd love to see some more pix of the other details. Where was this displayed?

It's on display at Great American Chopper in Clawson, MI. He asked if we wanted to display it in our show room too... Haven't decided yet.

Let him display it and then paint it while you have it there!

That is a crazy girder front end!!

i'd let my girlfriend drive it! she loves pink.

i do like how the exhaust dumps off on the road - bet it's LOUD!

whats the kids name that builds them scwhin lookin v-twins, jessie something?? looks like one of his. i was talkin to him in daytona and he said he was thinkin about doing something with a Bonneville Mtr. i imagine it would look something like that.

I'd love to see a Triumph Twin in one of his custom frames with his funky front suspension.

I love alternative front ends! those look nasty.

This one is BEGGING for a Triumph engine, old school baby...

I was lookin at that one too! How do you get pics from there? I hate flash sites...

I just went to the gallery, clicked on the thumbnail, right-clicked and copied the image location. Didn't have any trouble at all.

that guy kristen kromosexual is lame, that bike is lame, and everything he's ever done is lame. Just look at his website. I think he spends more time looking at himself in the mirror than he does working on his bikes.

he does make some nice bikes, but in all the interviews i have seen of him, then how he acted on that show build or bust i think he is a bit of a tool

Frank

I read an interview with him in one of the bike mags. His take on what what happened was far different from what we saw on the show. He said the producer (which is a bit of a tool in my opinion anyways) was trying to orchestrate drama, and that the entire show is not what he (and us) was led to believe. He said there was much more to the argument that didn't get aired. The producer apparently took clips out of context, and left out other conversations to make him look like he was at fault for the entire disagreement. That's his side of the story anyway....

Ok... I guess we are talking about Jesse Rooke now. Everytime I have seen him on tv in anything he comes across as a spoiled little whiney boy.

BTW... the pink bike is not bad. Looks like it would fit a girl pretty good. Just wish either the backbone was lower or the bottom of the tank was lower to fill up that empty space. That seems to be the biggest problem with using a P-Twin in customs, custom builders seem to use the same frame and tank as they would for taller/longer v-twin.

Soren

I agree Soren, I hate that tall tank look... I like it hugging the motor!

I just looked at Rooke's site. That Slotard looks like fun! Supercharged yet! My license would last about a week. But what a week.

Yeah...I kind'a like this pink bike, I guess!


BUT...I "kind'a" like THIS pink and blue motorcycle a "little bit" better.....

(and what's with the Britten only placing SIXTH in this "countdown", anyway????!!!!...THAT baby is NUMBERO UNO, Top-of-the-heap, A-number one of ANY motorcycle ever made....BAR NONE....even if THIS one[the tenth and last one ever made]WAS painted pink!!!)
