Some times they get hard on the new guys I don't know why. Some times I agree but when someone is off their rocker I call em out. Hopefully they will do the same when they see stuff that just aint right.
I have never ben a fan of apes but your ride looks so cool I'm starting to dig them.

I Think Most Of Us Are Off Our Rockers But It Just Nice To Do Stuff That Nevers Make Since But We Like It Thats All That Matters I Did Alot Of Research On Rat Rot Motorcycles And Thats The Style I Was Goin For And I Think Its Pretty Close Once I Get My Red Wheels And Somehow My Rear Fender Broke Yesterday So I Will Be Gettin Up In The Am To Go Yard Sales And Flee Markets To Find Some More Sweet Parts
Yeah, I'm for real and yeah it could cruise the beach. It's a fine bike, but putting ape hangers on a bike doesn't make it a chopper.
ps. What does a guy from PA know about the beach anyway?
ok so again what would u call it then since i must not be a expert and i dont live near a beach wow maybe i should have done a beach cruiser the dude are u serious let see a pic off your bike then and see how it compairs to mine i really hope urs is a really sick bike for all u talk
It seems that there are as many ideas as to what defines a "rat rod" or "chopper" as there are people who build them. To me a rat rod is an old piece of crap looking bike that ticks like a fine watch and a chopper is a bike with outlandishly long forks. I'd describe your bike as a stocker with apehangers. As for the crack about the beach it was directed at the "HATE" guy (can't recall his screen name at this moment), before i noticed you are also from PA. As far as I know, the only "beach" in PA is the "shore" of Lake Erie. Search threads started by me to find pics of my bike. Then you can comment on it's appearance.
Yes PA sucks only here for my job that sucks, never been to FL But spent 27 years in Phoenix AZ so I have been to the west coast many times. If I had the chance to go west I would. I would say Del Mar was Great.
