    Paul Jr is extremely "successful" from the tons of money he made off of American chopper, he wouldn't be anywhere near as successful as he is if Paul sr wouldn't have gotten the show. Jesse James made a name for himself by the product he built by hand, he doesn't just open a catalog and order...

    Just because you don't approve of it, or it isn't the way you would do it doesn't mean it's wrong. I built my very first street bike, a 1977 kz400 the same exact way I'm building this one. Guess what?? I built it 12 years ago and I've put over 30,000 miles one it and its still in one piece!

    Like i said the bike is nowhere near complete. I'm adding forward controls with a foot clutch, but I'd appreciate it if you kept your nose out of this thread and out of my business. Keep all your snide remarks to yourself and go build something with your 16 year old cousin in a shed somewhere...

    First off its my bike so I can do whatever I so please, and secondly you're a complete asshole. I'm not trying to start shit, but is this how you welcome new people to your group? I ALSO said its a work in progress and its nowhere near finished.

    I bought this bike at the beginning of summer for $150 and not running. So far I've put on 10.5 inch solid struts, clubman handlebars, suicide shifter, eliminated the gauges and dummy lights, I chopped the stock mufflers off and added the emgo shorty mufflers. Its a work in progress and nowhere...
