jsebastien - This bike was rewired using a Motogadget M-unit and a handmade harness. All those wire connections in the headlight no longer exist!

Thanks Kwak!

BigNickel - Thanks! I appreciate it!

SOOOO I am pretty horrible at updating build threads. But..... This bike was delivered to the client a while back. I have been sitting on pictures till one of the big bike blogs picked it up and Bike EXIF finally did so now I can drop pictures everywhere. Check out the Bike EXIF feature and the...

Our most recent bike was delivered a while back. But we have been sitting on pictures till one of the big bike blogs picked it up and Bike EXIF just featured it. So we can finally start releasing pictures! Check out the Bike EXIF feature and tell us what you think! Bike EXIF link...

Greenjeans - Thanks so much! You hit the nail on the head with quite a few different points!

XB33BSA - Thanks! I completely agree on the mechanics on the bikes. Should be completely running bikes so that there is more time for the builders to focus on fabrication. Tune-a-fish - Bewbs!

jag767 - it is. I think that is due to the fact that they told us they would be solid running and they ended up not being solid running.... They also did not show that they gave the Rodsmith team a whole new rack of carbs for their bike either. They couldn't get the original set to stop leaking...

@jag767 Thanks man! We tried everything to find plates for that bike, but no one had them in stock. We ended up shimming and adjusting the pack to get it to work correctly for the judges.

Canyoncarver - Thanks! The one with the girder is the bike that we built for the show!

xb33bsa - Thanks! How did you like the episode comparatively?

Kosmoto - Thanks!

Well! Show has aired and everything seemed pretty true to the experience. Who all caught the episode? Here is a few pictures of our 72hr build for the show.

Firebane - I am not disagreeing with your thoughts, nor am I hyping the show in anyway. Just stating that we will be on it. I agree that the first couple of episodes have left me wanting more just as you have stated. Unfortunately, I am not associated with the network and have no control over...

xb33bsa - No, We took the opportunity for what it was and pushed forward and made the best out of it.

Lostinmiself - I was told it was available on iTunes and Amazon. You can also watch it on their website through "Esquire TV".

Lostinmiself - Similar premise. Much smaller budget, much smaller time window and no ability to "pre-build" like they had on the biker build off. Kind of like "biker build-off meets Chopped on the food network" haha

Firebane - I don't disagree with you. I share the same thoughts on the desire for more when it comes to the final editing of the show. Alas, it is up to the network to final edit it. I wish I could get my hands on raw footage... Fingers crossed my episode was edited well.

Firebane - I think the draw to the show is more to do with the struggle of trying to complete a nearly impossible task. I am still in shock that we were able to complete what we did in 72hrs with what we were given... Clem - Definitely confined by the show structure. All the tools in the shop...

XB33BSA- Keep in mind... It's TV. There are certain things that happened in reality that may appear to be different in the final edit. Also, 3 days to do everything that happens is an incredibly short period of time. Especially when you have a producer pulling you aside every 5 minutes to ask...
