[QUOTE=03'EyeBug;2918307]^ That's my favorite one so far buzzword, super clean and classy.[/QUOTE]


Yeah - I dig it! It's a decent mix of old and new technology. I think the front disc + modern avon-style tires look a bit out of place, but not enough to make me not like it.

Also, the euro-style bobber that fizay posted made me drool - I think that's the first modern sportster bobber I've seen and liked.

Let's see if I can get away with posting this...

I am sure that it falls under the "some all-billet crap piece some dip**** celebrity overpaid for" but I really like the minimal stying of it. No fancy crap all over the place, just simplicity. I also think that I may have an infatuation with rubber. I love wide tires, and the wider the better. The first thing I notice on any vehicle is the tire width. If I see wide tires, I know they mean business.

Definitely not my favorite offering from Exile, but I've been a fan of their aesthetic for 10 years. I'd still rather build my own bikes, but if I HAD to buy one, it'd probably be from them.

Not as old or as fancy, but its a 1980 HD Sturgis. I built it a few years back, well, did a frame up rebuild on everything and got it running again. Kinda proud of it.

Looks like something a goth-nazi recon scout would ride in Hellboy.

oh hell yeah...not a fan of flat engines when you have to ride some tight single track...*tall rock around blind corner* oops too late!

but totally rad

ive always wanted to ride a flat bmw on the road, lower center of gravity and all

there are other builders who put knobbies on the rear of every type of build almost

some 40 years ago.....not much has changed, eh?

Whoa! Magpul, as in THE Magpul that you and I are so familiar with? Or is it a different Magpul? :lol: I had no idea they were going this route!

I don't even like motorcycles (well, I like them but I don't ride them because I'm addicted to speed and I know I will die) but that cycle is SICK!!!! I would have kids with it. :jawdrop:

Wow, that brings back some memories! The first HD I ever rode was my favorite to this day - my dad's '80 Sturgis that I helped him rebuild. I will have to see if I can track down pics of it.

Thing is though, yours has the later (I think '91) Sturgis tank stickers and the 80 also had a kick-start - was it removed? It was the first to have kick start and the electric start. The Sturgis (the 1980 model, not the 1991) will probably always be my favorite. I seriously love all the black chrome and black powder parts on it. Also the engine was all black wrinkle with the fins bare, but a lot of people swapped in the chrome motors or just the heads for looks. Personally I prefered the all black/orange look to the bike.

Awesome to see another one!

That thing is so awesome, I wanted to see the photos quoted once more. Reminds me of the 2WD motorcycle I saw in the Teknikmuseet in Stockholm. Have to find pics of that one too - it was pretty crazy.

I'm not sure how to describe that video....scary, exciting....funny (the commentary was amazing). Either way it was a pretty breathtaking 9.5 minutes. Thanks for that.

Watching that made me realise why so many people die at the IOM TT every year...one mistake and your into a brick house or tree without a rollcage...crazy

My balls are only big enough to ride a dual sport or dirtbike. Guess I don't trust myself. I think the deal of being able to have as much fun in a slow car as a fast one is exponentially increased when it comes to motorcycles.

Holy ****! Agreed! IOM = :eek: on that bike! :jawdrop:
