Wow! It just goes to show that imagination is the only limiting factor in what can be done with these bikes. I was wondering if the engine was changed, or was there some kind of conversion done to change the transmission output from shaft to chain? Stunning bike!B)

I believe Arnold made the conversion from shaft to chain drive when he bumped the motor up to 1200 cc's vs just swaping to a chain drive motor .

Sorry to be controversial but I think it is hideous. 'Vulgar' is the word. That chrome peak on the amber headlight...head -bang-table.

But as above, it is great example of taking and idea to the max.

I'd hardly say controversial. I don't mind it, but I can understand someone thinking it looks a bit... homely? Your second comment is how I approach it. Someone is simply taking an idea and running with it. That part I kind of like. But I will always prefer a stock looking bike.

No offense intended, every BOTM is to a very high standard, just a styling thing.

Controversial is good. Really good actually. A concept and identity so strong that it provokes an instant reaction.


off topic: some of my favourite musicians/bands are highly controversial even among those who like that sort of thing
i.e. Joey Jordisdon (ex Slipknot drummer) or Zaak Wylde (ex Ozzy) Cradle of Filth band etc etc

Havent logged on much recently , stopped by today and saw this bike!…VERY NICE…
Superb attention to detail.
I haven't read all of it, and I kind of cruzed through so forgive me if this is a redundant question or I missed it…Is there any build pictures?
I believe its called "Oppositional Defiance Disorder"
