    Willey Wonka maybe...

    But it looks to me like mode of transportation of choice for the Children Catcher in Vulgaria...
     
  3. The guy is from Finland...in the Summer it never gets dark..in the winter It never light....some of the stuff the Fins build is totally off to oneside but nearly always to a high standard....this one is totally bonkers and I for one love it..it has no brakes but yes he does ride it, probably more than most OCC bikes ever get ridden....at least it don't look like a fucking fire engine or lawn mower.....!

    i think it's pretty cool. the craftsmanship is incredible. not my cup of tea, but definately cooler than 99% of the "custom" crap that's winning all these television contests.

    HAHAHAHA....exactly what I was thinking
     
  8. I agree...I sure as heck wouldn't want to be on it at high-speeds. Looks cool though...minus the Clockwork Orange riding gear draped over the top of it.

    Very nice detail work and craftsmanship but it's all show and no go!
    In my opinion it's not a motorcycle unless you can actually ride it and I don't mean thru a parkinglot, I mean ride down a freeway for a couple of hundred miles with out getting killed. I didn't see any brakes on the thing, or did I miss them? To me it's a very nice piece of art but not a motorcycle. As a piece of art it is incredible though.
     
  15. So that's what happens, when you don't take your MEDICATION!!!!! Seriously,incredible workmanship,but I wouln't ride it.Course at 6'1" 250lbs I'd probably break it in half:D

    the flying eyeball on it is cool
     
  17. to all the responses here that said if you can't ride it, it's not really a bike, that's just plain nonsense. Would you run a chopper on the Baja 1000? How about a chopper at Road Atlanta? This thing was built for the custom/show class. The builder did that in spades. The workmanship is incredible, and the attention to detail is amazing. You wouldn't expect John Force's funny car to do well at the Daytona 500, but you still couldn't say it wasn't fast.
     
  18. That is bad-ass...

    I LOVE it. I only wish I had 10 % of that mans talent or artsy wierdness. Its like Ed Roth meets Wanka, with a big needle full of Leminy Snicket thrown in for "over the Top" effects.

    That's just awesome, both the guy, and the bike. Followers laughed at Von Dutch too; its great to see someone not afraid to be himself and do what he wants. Nothing but respect from me to a great mind.

    I can respect the quality of the workmanship but that's a waste of a panhead motor.

    Boys not to start anything here but ,thats not a Panhead or even a Harley-Davidson motor. Its an old Indian made in Springfelid Mass,and a wast of one at that. The headlight is cool,just not to hot on the rest of it. A rice grinder motor would have been better. They do things different over there than here in the States...
