I think its gaudy and not really very inspired, designwise. *Way* worse looking than the Orange County Choppers fire bike (http://www.billetcats.com/OCC%20Firebike.htm)

Actually, the bike looks good, and I am not a fan of "bling" bikes. This one is not "blingy". You should see it in person first. He usually brings it to Malibu for the meets there.

You are an idiot. First, you are comparing a street bike to a chopper (apples to oranges), then you are saying the STREET BIKE is the GAUDY one?!?!? Hahaha! OCC is a joke, and so are you. Their bikes are overpriced junk anyway. If I was going to spend that much on a chopper I would buy a West Coast Chopper. Then at least I would be getting a quality bike and not a pile of flashy garbage.

You are an idiot.

I agree. You can't really compare two different types of bikes. I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but where is the gaud? I don't see anything that blinds the eyes when looking at that bike. It is a greatly designed bike and the scheme is wonderful. Check the bike out in person. It does look better than pics. Later, QD.

Thanks a lot guys. All of your comments are appreicated. I worked hard on it for about 2 years. It was in NYC last week and it was recieved with open arms. I have gotten several emails praising my efforts.

As for the Gaudiness, the only thing I went over the top with was the Ostrich seats. I needed to do something different than just the plain black seats. I like it over all but as everyone knows, it is all in the eyes of the artist.

I cant believe that you are going to part with the bike... That is way to nice to let go but I know that it is for a great cause....

I do not ride it that much so I wont miss it really. It is for a good cause so I will be happy just to hand over a check. I will then get two more bikes to work on. Hmmmmm

awesome looking bike.... I think it is tastefully done. The only think I would change are the mirrors and maybe the leds.

OCC firebike sucks a big one

OCC does make junk... but their kit bike still looks better.

Also me as an idiot still = smarter than you.

Probably an RC-51 and a GSX-R 600 or 750. As for the next projects, I am not going to say anything until they are built.

As for ^^^ not liking my bike, I am perfectly fine with that. I did not built it for everyone to fall in love with rather something for honor the memory of my friend...although it seems homeboy has some anger towards something.

Oh Well!
