Always been a big fan Bruce. Got rake isn't going to get any records on the dragon, but for cruising the roads in Fla, she is probably a dream.......

So I guess you all would really flip at the price of Nehmesis...$250,000.00

Until you see them in-person its hard to understand the prices, the workmanship, and time to create a bike like these. Being the one that transports them all over the USA to most of the big bike shows over the years they still attract a crowd and jaws drop, 95% of the people who see them say "To see them in-person is totally different then in a magazine or on the web, WOW". The labor time alone to build these bikes would break most of us but when they are built to show that there are no limitations of the imagination or our creative abilities , this is why they were/are built. Got Rake is ridden ALL the time, and I mean ALL the time, not just to a show once or twice a year, just recently on 11/19/11, a 2 1/2 escorted ride from Ft.Lauderdale to Ft.Myers Beach and only stopped twice for fuel like everyone else (150+ bikes)and Nehmesis is also a bike that you see running down the road more then you would believe. They are HIGH $$ bikes that attract lots of attention and do what they were intended to do, attract people and business. Not everyone will like them and that's OK but just remember not everyone likes what you ride either. Rolling Art is in the eye's of the beholder.

Bruce, BMS CHOPPERS


I have been to Davie to visit with Bruce and Sam... I got a real nice tour of their facility where they build these bikes, and let me tell ya... they are a class act with some very experienced people working there... I have seen these bikes up close... more close than most... I actually got to sit on them... Like Bruce said, these bikes are ridden, but they are rolling works of art... If I had the cash, I would own "Got Rake"! I like Nehmesis, but not as much as Got Rake... and the wife loves it too ... I understand what goes into a build like these... I am currently in the middle of a crazy build right now myself... all by myself... no help, no C.A.D. computer, no drawings... just a lot of imagination and creativity and always use a level of some type and measure twice... I have mad respect for Bruce and Sam and the guys at BMS...
