Jay Leno's Garage

On this page, Jay Leno checks out some very well finished MBs. I know it goes against our DIY grain a bit, but good work is good work.
I like to imagine the builder saw some of our creations and was inspired.

Cool video. Phantom bikes is a sponsor here if you weren't aware.

I really like the sound of the exhaust note with their custom exhaust pipe.

Ditto here. I emailed the company and they said they would look into it. It still is blank for me.

Re: MB on Leno's Garage- Phantom Bikes

those are nice bikes and every body loves jay. cool he could give him a bump like that. but did i hear right when he pointed to the one jay was on and said $6,000. thats over a $3500 mark up.

i'm clearly not charging enough for my bikes.

Re: MB on Leno's Garage- Phantom Bikes

That's just good business. Getting on that segment will be a big boost to sales and he has set a high price ceiling

Well, I understand the purpose is to promote something that can be bought, but for "zoot" I'll put my bike up against those....well, the touring model at least.

Phantom Bikes on Jay Leno's garage

Check it out, Phantom Bikes was on Jay Leno's garage recently:

Phantom Bikes

The link to the show portion:

Phantom Bikes - Phantom - Jay Leno's Garage

It's great to see motorized bike publicity! The bikes looked great and performed awesome as well! I like the dual tank idea on the custom cruiser model. That's something I mentioned a while back in the custom tank thread.

I posted this info. here as they are a seller so check em out!

Nice work guys!

Re: Phantom Bikes on Jay Leno's garage

What did he say? up to $6,000? made in the USA? Every piece of that bike is made in china. Just like with derringercycles.com, I wonder who buys from these people. People like jay leno buy from these people. Phantom bikes is doing what jay leno did to Conan.
