| Re: Now that's what I'm talkin' about... "Swollen Glands" is actually a pretty nice guy. He lent us a pair of cylinders at Mid Ohio several years ago and when we were loading out, he just took my seized cylinders and called it even. Some of the other 250 pilots in the series wouldn't even give you the time of day. |

| Re: Now that's what I'm talkin' about... Read a little article on that in a magazine, which had some better pictures. It is actually a pretty cool bike .... sort of cruiser with more than a hint of sport. Maybe not a daily rider, but something you can actually enjoy riding when doing the weekend gathering thing. |

| Re: Now that's what I'm talkin' about... I a bit confused, it said that the bike was built for the show but thats the same bike he was ridding like 2 years ago on speedTV's American Thunder show.
They were putting PM stuff on the penthouse chicks bike and they went for a ride after and he rode that bike. |

| Re: Now that's what I'm talkin' about... I'm not a big fan of so called "custom bikes", but I've seen Rook's work, and like his style vs. the old skool crap.
I'll watch it just for the Jerry Springer pop value, and really want to laugh as they lap WSIR on custom builds...
Wonder what their times are  ?

If people are going to us H-D based motors I wish they would at least use the Revolution motor that comes on the V-Rod. If someone like Eric Buell would use it the Buell might have a chance of becoming a competitive bike. |
