I dunno... I'm diggin' the choppers... That SM is BADASS... However, I think the street tracker one is the most wicked of them all... Looks really, really, really dangerous. Which is awesome.

I love that tracker.
The TL motor is such a great platform for customs :dthumb:

Well, yeah... but the TL motor is special.
It wasn't coincidence that Bimota used them for a while.

In a chopper, The 90 just has too much space between the cylinders. It looks outta place to me.

But really...why put a TL motor in a chopper anyway? Other than just to prove you can do it. Let that puppy breathe....like in a bad ass SUMO or Tracker.

I'm cheating a bit because it's a Victory concept, rather than a custom shop, but it's custom now and a one off currently and I'd rock the shit out of this bike as is, wood seat and all.

I like the last bike in each of the first three posts.

The Black Duc Bobber is the tits.

I was looking for a good Superhawk custom, but didn't have too much luck.

But again with the victory... its a 45 or close to it... not a 90

Ok, it isn't really all that custom. Just use and abused. :)

Damn right. The angle of champions.

I agree that the 45 or similar work better in custom applications, but I think the larger angle twins can still be solid in customs.

That SV motard and all sportbike based motards frighten me... So heavy for the off-roading stuff that I question how fun it would be... I mean, it takes some serious skill to do any sort of real jumping on a machine that big and heavy...
