I snapped these back in October of '03. They were just starting to get some noteriety and figuring out some forms of crowd control. The last shot is group of local NY State Police cadets who just stopped by to see the shop. Vinnie was just enjoying all the attention.
The shots of the Fire Bike were while they were loading them up for a show. The Fire Bike was pretty impressive in person and very long.
At this point in my life, after 20 years, I was back on a bike and had just purchased my America. I thought anything with two wheels was just facinating. It's interesting how my perspective has changed. These custom bikes are almost laughable, but I can't get enough of older, real choppers.
