Alright, lets get down to custom bikes, for the record first and foremost I dont't care what Paul Jr. is building. You heard Jesse James comment on it. "It's bolted and glued together with parts off a truck" And though he won the build off....well it just goes to show that most folks will buy whatever the hell you try and sell 'em.

So right now you might be saying, "What the hell has some guy built?" Good question, no it is not the bike featured here though I may have had a wet dream about something similar once. I (WE) have been building all sorts of coll mods and other assorted riff raff, trouble is I have'nt taken the time to show that off. And unlike some other folks I aint pullin the bed sheet off the Bandit or the CB till it's done...kapeesh!

Anyhow.....check this shit out



And here is what the educated have to say.

The best custom motorcycles have a coherent look—a visual balance and flow that literally stops the traffic. And the modifications should perform on the road as well as in front of the camera. So this bike, a mix of Suzuki, Honda and Kawasaki parts from different eras, shouldn’t work. But strangely, it does—and very well too.

Big air, nice carnage, perfect soundtrack, a moment of silence while we pay respects to the nearly dead and dying two stroke, Thanks EPA.....Fools.

Freddie Spencer on a VFR

I have always wanted a VFR, just never found one at the right time for the right price.

Back in the day when this promo was shot sport bikes were just coming of age and Freddie Spencer was showing the world what they were capable of.

If I werent so damn hooked on the bikes I have now likely I would hunt me Down a good ol' VFR 750

Here is the virgin salt flat run of the Confederate Wraith. I remember this day and recall being on the phone with these guys waiting for there turn to run. It was unclear earlier in the day if this would get to take place, crew and equipment had driven from New Orleans to Bonneville to learn these salt flats hold quite a bit o' moisture and it was pushing through the surface pretty hard that morning.

I had quite the falling out with one of the fellas of Confederate shortly after this was filmed. At one time he and I were close friends and I always figured we would be lifelong pals. We would ride old Jap bikes together, chase women, shoot guns, share dog responsibilities and drink large quantities of alcoholic beverage on a near if not daily basis. Sadly, my antics caused my old friend to cut ties with me and for this I cannot say I blame him.

Confederate has many Ohio roots, in particular Cincinnati, in fact I believe the Wraith found its humble beginnings on paper in the Queen City, then made its way to rock star status in the Big Easy. I still own a t-shirt with a picture of this bike and likely it is one of the few things I plan to hold onto for sometime to come.

Please forgive me old friend, I think of our exploits from time to time and maybe one day we will patch the race tire between us. In the meantime a showing of the art you helped create.
