I don't know why those images won't show for some people. They work for me. Try these:

Interesting, but I can't imagine riding it. More like a show piece.

I'd ride it if they put a 300 front tire on it!

A v-twin works on both sport bikes and choppers. A gixxer 4 cylinder on a chopper...not so much in my opinion. A v-twin works great for a sport bike on the street (not so much for racing [cc for cc]) because it offers great midrange. A gixxer 4-cylinder is so high-strung, it just wouldn't work well with the exagerated cruising style that you have to use on a chopper w/ the ridiculous rake angle. Having a gixxer 4-cylinder in its powerband, with the chassis and suspension of a chopper (let alone the extreme one in question) is just not really a great idea. Would hate to have to turn quickly with a front end like that at 13k RPM, ya know?

Even if you knew the mastermind behind it is a "devout Christian". :dblfng

From the site:

Before anything else I am a devout Christian.
Now before you make any assumptions let me crush the pictures that just came to your mind.

You see, Jesus was God in the form of man. It's true that God is Love. And words to describe Love are perfect, unconditional, kind, compassionate, etc. But the words that aren't often used to describe love are Tough, Rock Solid, Brave, Uncompromising, Fearless, Undying, Limitless, Powerful, Relentless, etc. Jesus came to this world to be the ultimate sacrifice for our sin. He faced death and defeated it by rising again three days later. Now to me that sounds like a tough, fearless, man unwilling to compromise His mission despite the excruciating circumstances that He had to face. He went into the temple and flipped the table on the people selling goods in His house and proceeded to chase them out! Jesus was and is the Ultimate "Tough-Guy!" He rebelled against the world view and won! And as He did this He still showed love, compassion, and kindness for people that were considered scum-of-the-earth sinners. Now that being said, how can Jesus be the soft, meek, mild, push-over that so many churches have portrayed Him to be?

Pure Christianity is not a Religion. It's a Relationship. Religion is defined as: a specific fundamental set of practices generally agreed upon by a number of persons. Yet in John 3:16 it states that "God so loved the world that he gave is only Son, so that anyone who BELIEVES in Him will not perish but have eternal life." You see, you don't have to "get right" with God to go to heaven. Believing in Jesus MAKES you right with God and is the ONLY way to heaven. Christianity is not a list of rules to follow. It's a life centered around Christ. Anyone that openly confesses Jesus as Lord is saved from an eternity in hell. And when this confession is made God begins to refine you from the inside out and the sinful things of your life start to become something that you want to change. Instead of there being a conscious effort to change them, you begin to want to live a Godly life. Not out of habit. But out of love for GOD.

As I said before, I am a devout Christian, and I intend on reflecting that through the way that I live my life and the way that I conduct business.

I think the bike is cool as hell! I could not find a price, but with lifetime guaranty, detailing, and service, I would expect it to be 5x-10x as much as a stock Gixxer.


I love the quote " END THE CYCLE OF MONOTONY. SUCCESS IS BASED ON STANDING OUT, NOT BLENDING IN."

He is a very creative custom bike builder, I'm sure there is a market for his bikes.

I think most custom bikes spend more time sitting then being ridden.

So I'll stick with the non-custom stuff back by a bunch of engineering and testing focused on performance.

Still a nice looking bike, I like Confederate bikes too.
