Re:Nice looking build in Tampa For sale. 11 Months ago  
Nice bike, but I gotta get up on the box for a minute.

Someone should tell people there is a big difference between custom made and customized. If you did not fabricate a significant number of the crucial parts, from raw materials, with your own hands, you did not "build" anything, you assembled and customized it.
If it is a bolt-on wonder with paint, chrome and body work, it is not a "build". This kind of misrepresentation gives the human wonders of the motorcycle world a bad name. John Britton BUILT his bikes, motor and all. THAT'S A BUILDER!

(steps off the soap box, and yield the talking stick)

Totally agree with Ace - but it does look like this one has had some frame work - rake, lowering, cleaning up, as well as a bit of customization.

Couldn't help but laugh at the typically poorly worded Craigslist ad - "makes a lot of sounds" - is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Suprised me to see all that work and not even a re-locate on the fuel pump. The rake appears to be aftermarket trees, and the lower looks like an air ride "dumped". Decent price if you like that style and "lots of sounds"

Sure, but the sounds are not "custom", are they?

I thought they were standard equipment!

Agree with aces view on ”custom” or ”customized” also I do think those are the stock trees only cause on my tiny cell phone screen the lower tree looks like its the stock black tree.

I like mine better and it was wrecked so it is half built. He could have at least painted the lower tree like I did GEEEZ.
