A rather unique chopper

Followed a link in another thread to a site where I found this:

Not sure what style to call it even, gothic perhaps? Crazy, but cool. I would suspect it is not the greatest handling machine in existance, and not the most practical (lack of mudguards for starters) but it looks like the guy's gone all out in creating it. Nice level of finish on it, and it's definately not your average "chopper".

Yes definitely very well finished !!
I like it's level of uniqueness, lack of tradional constraints with design and practicality. Looks like it's powered by a Harley WLA-type engine.
Good on him.

(Thanks for sharing)

Yeah... he looks like Johhny Depp in that movie where he falls in love with that "special" girl...

Don't like the bike myself... looks like a stretched out mini chopper

I did notice a lack of brakes!! Odd but nicely done!

I did see on that site a nice set of curves to ride!

It reminds me of an old sewing machine or something.

It's good to see something fresh and individual, that has always been the attraction of the handmade machine. Since Jesse James and those east coast stoners on TV the personalisation of such machines seems to have been lost.

Good on that man!!

I note there are no shots of it actually moving???

**HenryDorsetCase** · 13th October 2006, 13:08

THAT RULES!

notice he tucked the tail-coat in when paddling the thing along.

the details make it: particularly like the winged eyeball light.

and in the second to last shot the guy holding it up looks like he is nicking it.

thanks for sharing.

**Matt Bleck** · 13th October 2006, 15:30

It's cool in it's own weird way, love the headlight!

**Wired1** · 13th October 2006, 22:04

Very cool, nice to see a new look for a change. I guess it works? it doesn't have a lot of controls...

Reminds me of the Buller Gorge, only more so.
