Re: 6th Annual V8 Motorcycle Run and Show - Daytona Bike Week

CR, Your post regarding the ride...I 100% agree and was pretty embarassed last year when I heard the total. I showed up for the line up but then broke off 5 minutes into the ride. I don't do the big parades personally but wanted to be there to contribute and see who was there. When I saw the number ...

Re: Stan's new touring trike

It's a hot red model. I believe called "European" red or maybe "Ferrari" but red one way or another! Unveiling in T minus 3 days! Steve Barr will be taking delivery of one in a month or so. I saw the paint scheme for his and it's first rate. This is a trike that begs to do some s...

Re: Aussie Boss Hoss Sales going Ballistic!

Bill, Glad to see you enjoy that good fortune (pun intended) ;) . It's been my observation the last two years that trikes are the hot ticket so I'm not surprised to hear the prices and interest. While hanging out at the V8Chopper tent the last few years, the trikes overall seem to get equal to or mo...

Re: Miami Ride Stops

Some of those spots shown above look pretty good to me. 8-) Good job sniffing them out, thanks!

Was wondering if there were any good spots in some of that really good riding in NW Arkansas? That's some fine country and not far from Miami.

Re: Easy Rider "The Ride Back" The movie trailer is here......

I loved that movie when it came out and now. Those bikes (especially Fonda's Capt. America) inspired me to try and build choppers from Honda's to Harleys. Believe it or not, I had a 750 and 900 Honda that turned into choppers and of course a Sportster which I kept for years. I haven't been to a the...

Re: salvage?? V8 Chopper on e-bay

Tom, There's a bike down here that the owner (a police officer I believe), wrecked pretty bad. By that I mean there wasn't much of anything that wasn't affected but I don't think there was frame damage. I think he rear ended a 4 wheeler but I'm vague on details. Anyhow, through Stan he got hold of ...

Jack, You'll see these in Daytona and you'll shit. There are four end caps. Two are pointed but not sharp. The other two are scary sharp. If someone even leaned on one of them, it would probably go through flesh like a hot knife through butter. That may be part of the "whoa shit" factor bu...

Hi Don, I couldn't be happier with the look of the chopper with the springer. I just need to be careful not to go over the handlebars. The trim hardware for the springer is beautiful but lethal. Real pointy end caps. If the comment "Daytona bound I hope" was about me, I'm definitely going....

Re: salvage?? V8 Chopper on e-bay

Tom,

When you mentioned the word "Salvage" I thought I knew the bike but that isn't it. I also didn't see in the ad where it referenced salvaged or that it had been wrecked. There was one down there that Neil looked at that was a wreck but this one isn't it.
