"Beat The Clock" More damn photos

Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

Man that thing sounds amazing! That last video gives a good idea of ride profile on it too...it suits you dude! I think that is your style bike man! And sadly, I fear that shit is contagious.....good job bro.
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

Fab build. The details are amazing and the stance is really great. *Sniff* (y)our little bikes all grown up. ;)

Peace.
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

Yep the baby has left the nest, hahah. Thanks for the homage fellas. Much appreciated!
Had the bike out on the town today. Every where I went a crowd gathered. At times I had ten people gathered around. It was sooo much fun. Got nothing but kind words and some pretty funny questions. Got a lot of "what make is that? Well, I've never seen a Honda look like that."
Hahah, we're pretty sheltered here. Anyhow, most people said they didn't notice any of the details until they got close to it. I guess that's what I was trying to achieve.
I ended up taking the bike to a friend of mine who is a photographer. He fell in love with it, ...so he says. However, the coolest part is I showed him my photos on the site and he said that even though I did a good job taking the pics,"they just don't do the bike justice". He thinks it looks even better in person. What a nice compliment! So anyway, we are going to do a photo shoot this comming monday. He has a couple of models lined up already. One has some nice tattoos and she wants to do some nudes :)
The bike show is this Sunday so I'm pretty stoked about that too.

Dude. I don't even know how to respond to that. I think I just need to leave it be! Rock on!!! :eek: ;D
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

That thing is absolutely gorgeous, man. Sounds great, looks great! Enter it in some contests or send a few pics to the magazines. It's rad.
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

We really need a "we're not worthy" smiley. I'd have to burn it out here man. That thing deserves all the attention it gets, which I guess means you deserve some too... ;D
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

Hey thanks fellas. Much appreciated!
Black Motor, my photographer friend says that he'd like to send some photos out for consideration. We'll see. Thanks for the kind words.
Cresent, I too like the idea of the 'not worthy' smiley. I would have been using it on every other post ;D. I'm in such great company here and I feel blessed and hornored to have you guys praise my build. So I guess this will have to work: I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy ...;D.

Hope to have some new photos soon.

Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

Bike came out great troy!!! Just out of curiosity how functional is the mirror setup?
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

i JUST KEEP COMING BACK HERE AND STAIRING AT THE PICS AND WATCHING THE VIDEO OVER AND OVER AGAIN! I can't get enough. It is great! What else can be said that has not already and it is all true! Bravo!
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

What I can say is a wooooow. I will plan to copy this from you :)

Re: "Beat The Clock" video update



and thank you CresentSon ;)
Hey Marc the mirror works fantastic. It is positioned just about perfect. I tend to ride the bike with my knees out so most of the time I have to pull my knee in to get a full view but other than that it works very well. I'm actually surprised at the limited vibration and its pretty cool to not have the mirror attached to the handle bars. When it was located on the bars before I found that sometimes when I turned the bars, it turned away from what I wanted/needed to see. Not now.

I really appreciate the props fellas! Its greatly appreciated! <img src="http://www.fairytalerebornbabies.com/pics_imgs/do_not_delete/not_worthy.gif">

Show tomorrow so I hope to have some pictures and maybe some better video soon. It's calling for rain so maybe all the pretty boy bikes will stay home and I'll have a shot at something ;D.
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" video update

Just got back from the show. Almost didn't go because of the rain. Glad I went because I got a trophy. It was a lot of fun. I'll be adding photos from today and later I hope to add video. I'm trying to get the video from the camera right now, but I'm not having much luck. (I don't know wtf I'm doing, LOL) I'll post up the photos as soon as i get them loaded. A buddy of mine had his 69 c-10 low rider truck out that he is in the middle of building so we grabed a few photos of both. oops, not a 69 it's a 65 C-10 Chevy.

Hopefully real photo shoot will go down tomorrow. Video will have to wait as well. Guess I need a fire wire (whatever that is?). I found out that the video wouldn't transfer with usb cable. I think you guys will really like the video footage.
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" photos update 09.27

Don't keep us waiting, Troy!

Those pictures look great and congratulations on receiving that trophy! By the way, can you really drive that low on that truck???
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" photos update 09.27

seeing your lid on the seat of that last pic made me think, you need a matching lid! Lace paint, caymen skin strap(that looks like what your seat is made from,isnt it?), and brass hardware! I mean a matching lid may be the only thing you have not already done perfectly!
 
Re: "Beat The Clock" photos update 09.27

Thanks Goodfornothing, Well he raises it up some to drive it. Pretty cool to watch that old truck go up and down. Of course it would be too easy for him to take all four corners down at the same time ;D

Thanks twisted wheels compliment taken. Yeah I really like the idea of a different lid. Maybe lace or just a vintage factory bobber hat. Don't know yet. Might be cool to do an old pudding bowl with the lace job. However, people have said that they like the lid I'm wearing now with the silver stripe and ear flaps. I also like to throw on vintage goggles. The look seems to get a lot of looks ;D.
Anyhow, if things go well I'll have a video up soon. It's loading onto photobucket right now. However, its going very slow. It's at 10%. Getting about 2%/minute. Hopefully photobucket will be able to handle the format. If not I probably won't sort it out until tomorrow.
Thanks again fellas,
Troy
