Example; GM's bike- not a custom. He enhanced the bike's nature by adding more chrome, etc.

Example; This ugly fucking 'Busa- total custom. He took a crotch rocket/potential drag bike and turned it into a blvd cruiser. Not my cup of tea but you cannot deny that it's a custom bike.

Besides, who made the rule that all 'Busas have to be made into "drag bikes" or super sport tourers to be acceptable?

Yeah we get it. Anyone can make their own bike look like anything they want. Great. More power to them. It's their hard earned money. No big deal.

But we also have the right to say it's a fucking ugly monstrosity.

Oh don't get me wrong, it's FUGLY but it's being said to not be a legitimate custom because he using not doing it "right".

The other thing that Smike pussied out on was pointing out the irony of a guy who spent approx $50,000 customizing a bike (that he barely rode btw) calling someone else an idiot for over customizing a bike....

I love you, Chris and no offense, but if he sells that bike for under $17,000 he'll probably make money...

Anyway, I was just trying to have some fun here!

I saw a skinny guy riding a late 90's cbr900rr last week in speedos and a tanktop with sneakers, gloves, and a helmet. His fat, fat, fat gf was on back with skin tight camo booty shorts and shirt w/ flip flops. I almost puked in my bandana.
