Man, that thing has a longer wheelbase than a 914!

I think you might be right...get out the tape measure!

I heard the price on a set of wheels that one of the guys on the Biker Build off paid. The rear wheel alone was 15K$. Just for the wheel. It was a one off billet piece. Now if one wheel cost lets say 8K, then what does the rest of teh bike cost. Labor is not as expensive as say all the chroming and paint.

Imagine the price of the wheels on the Lincoln bike? HOw muchy do you think it cost to set up those cylinders?

Than Boyd must be getting $500K for his cars. He has a crew of 3-5 working for 6 weeks to get one of those rods out the door.

It just seems $200K is alot for two wheels without a body.

I like the tighter beefier look without the raked forks, like Excile Choppers...

Their stuff just screams "machinery". Up close it's all aircraft fittings, cheeze-head hex bolts, counter-bored holes, billet, composites... Art as a product of function alone. My wife would say "it looks so utilitarian." and I would say "I know. Isn't it beautiful!" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
