She is probably feeling quite humiliated having to stand next to such a tasteless pile of shit.

Custom and show bikes like that aren't designed for riding.

They are "designed" to be parked in garages and the owners toss off over them all night long.

Wank value is everything to those "designers".

Especially since her poses aren't exactly flattering. Did I see some cellulite??? (You can tell that the bike didn't enthrall me sufficiently to make me overlook other details in the pix)

**sits back and waits for flaming for daring to mention cellulite**

The photographer is obviously as tasteless and talentless as the bike builder. Bad taste all round really. That poor girl should stop hanging out with such losers.

Someone should put in an offer to come around with a rifle to put the poor thing out of its misery.

If you go to the web site on the banner behind the bike ( http://shape-shifter.co.nz ) you will see they do their own WOF (and have a supply of "promo girls" as well)

A custom is built to suit your own taste. You customise it. You ride it. I have never understood the "I have money so I will buy a custom" view. But then, I am from the old guard.

But at the same time, to argue or belittle someone elses custom is as pointless as discuss what beer tastes best.

To the builder: Well done. You have a vision and you create something. Clearly you build bikes and have decided to try to make an income from that. Respect!

To the posters on here: The bike is not completed, (No wiring, throttle, clutch etc.) and clearly will have the missing bits added. How many of you have ever built a bike, do you have any idea what it takes?

That is true. Although this bike is certainly not my cup of tea, I have checked out those chaps' website and it seems they have the passion and skill to do a job that I would love to have. They do deserve full respect for that.

Go have a look at it in the flesh, it's actually no where near as lucious as you'd think :no: You'd still rape it hard, but it's not actually built as nicely as you'd think (for that sort of coin). Besides, hard to think of a cookie cutter bike as 'art'.
