Edit - Hmm.. for some reason that link didn't work. Maybe I got it wrong.

It doesn't go live for a few more days.....once it does and they're all uploaded it should be pretty cool to see what every shop has done to the 48.

We're keen to see some cool bikes.

With the exception of the bars, I'd own it. Fucking cool and without a doubt the best looking custom WMCC have yet produced. Well done to all involved mate.

Hey I made those bars,the thing is you had to use hd parts and modify and there are not that many nicely shaped hd bars for what we wanted on this bike so they are modded mini-apes and I think you need to goand sit on it they are comfortable.

Saw a Superglide in Sturgis with an identical paint job, the rivets even looked real.

We thought about painted rivets....or epoxyed on rivets...but decided to go the whole hog and put the real deal rivets in...our panelbeater(Dave Hunt) got them from some aircraft restoration outfit in the UK that ships down here for all the warbirds that get restored in NZ.

It's been a really interesting experience....and we leaned a LOT on folks in our Christchurch community, the guys we used for panel and paint(Dean Lawrence) we can't say enough good things about....they have been absolutely awesome to work with.

Any flaws or mistakes are mine alone...the team inside and outside our shop really gave maximum effort, they get ALL the credit.

I'm just happy the ideas in my head didn't turn into a nightmare when everyone's hard work finally put it all together.
