Am currently watching a new show called "Ride with Norman Reedus" that I taped from last night (Sunday). Seems this guy travels around the US on different brands of motorcycles and visits dealers, custom shops, bike owners, biker bars, etc.. Except for the cursing bleeps and the grungy looks, the show is interesting and seems mostly motorcycle oriented (except for the naked women and weirdo scenes). Might be worth a watch before it is removed from TV as the general public is probably not interested.
 
Yea, I've been watching it. It shows some interesting riding routes & places to stop along the way.
That custom builder out in the desert is very artistic..... Christian something, I can't remember his last name.
 
It would be nice to see a TV show that shows all makes, and not just be focused on Harleys...I used the like watching the OCC, but mainly for all of the confrontations between the old man and his sons...I couldn't care less about the bikes they built because they were all Harley based...
 
I loved watching the creativity but you are right, it would be nice to see people building different motors. I love the chopper scene now because people are really using whatever they've got.
 
Last nites episode: 2 ducati motards, 2 Harley sportsters & 1 Triumph Bonnie

Yep, I get sick of seeing customs built around a Harley motor (or an S&S, or one of the other aftermarket Harley clone motors)...those things have been done to death! How about building a custom based on an R3 motor?
 
One of the coolest bikes I think I've seen had an inline 4 with exposed pushrods and rocker arm ends. I have no idea what it was but I loved the look. It was painted OD Green and looked as if it was a World War II bike. Whatever it was it was a very cool maintained or restored bike.
