Doesnt quite work, does it?

The frame is too traditional to work with the 90°V.  The builder should have worked around the engine better...a bit more out of the box thinking was required.  And that front fender...yeeesh...

He'll be lucky to get the materials cost out of it.

Front fender/mud guard & 9'' wheel really make the bike [wine]

For being a custom chopper with many hand made pieces it really hides it well. It looks like pretty much every other generic chopper out there except it has a Ducati engine.  [puke]

Looks like ASS.....


Wasn't the premise behind "choppers" to actually "CHOP"/mod a stock bike.....

Ha!  [laugh], "never shown" that makes it much more valuable, because as far as I'm concerned once someone sees my bike I don't even want it anymore

Stunning is right. 

I'm F'n stunned someone would do that to a perfectly good Paso.

$12K?!?  Damn....  Best of luck w/that.  $1200 maybe...

That thing is one part wrecked Paso, one part generic HD 'chopper' frame kit, and three parts bad drugs.  Add one hillbilly, some coke, 1 to 2 divorce(s), simmer on high for 2.3 years and

VOILA!

I'm amazed that the seller called it "stunning"....


...I suppose that's one word for it, but I'd be more inclined to use a less colorful adjective as a descriptor.

This coming from a guy that wears a shirt that says "YOUR BIKE SUCKS" on a daily bases, so I guess take this with a grain of salt.
 
I'm one that looks at a bike & goes  "it's yours, not mine...Why do I care?" 

 The shirts after 15+ years have never drawn a negative comment... Go figure.

Ok, not true. One scary lookin' MoFo walk up to me at a show in Vegas & said "YOUR BIKE SUCKS, I wanna' kick your ass... but you're right, my bike does suck".  I sent him a shirt.

Side note: Thanks Will for not kicking my ass .  :)   

People love saying something to me (with a smile on their face) about it, and have had great conversations with people about the bikes they have/had purely because they read the T-shirt.

Now, with all that being said... WTF? WHY?  Oh it's stunning alright [bang]. People with stunning bikes don't have to tell people it is, you just know.  Did they have left over parts from 6 builds & not want to waste? 

Aaaaand,   off the box.
