Are you serious?

I mean the whole rear swingarm is the only iffy thing on there to me other then that that xb is badass.IMO


I guess it would look better if it had all stock parts other then the exhaust and some frame sliders.

The article mentions how unique the short wheelbase is.. then the "custom" builder extended the swingarm? WTF

I think the bike does a great job of showing off artistic and mechanical talent, but would never be interested in owning something like this.

Extended swingarms are for dragging, and a rear tire that #$%@ing huge is good for absolutely nothing.

While I'm not crazy about the overall design (the paint is probably the ugliest I have EVER seen), I actually think the guy nailed the swingarm length just right. It's just long enough that it eliminates the stock "hump-back" look. Nicely balanced, not overly stretched like most others.

My bike was featured in Super Streetbike Mag. about two issues before that one. I like the magazine. You can pull idea's from others or get idea's of your own.

not my style. But hey if you got the cash to pour into a bike like that, have at it. Just come see me if you need something that you can actually ride down the road on.

I may be the idiot by not understanding this but he converted to Chain drive and left the Belt tensioner on it? What the hell.... It may be a Chain tensioner but that makes him an even bigger idiot. That was made fast to get a lot of attention with minimal thought put into it.

WOOOOOOWWWW I never seen so many people who dont have much of anything done at all to there bikes be so critical of somebody who made there bike different then everyone else's.

I think its funny how people that get all excited about a trailer trash washer mod exhaust can bag on a bike for its obvious faults and not see any of the cool things done to it.

But I gotta say Midknyte that is the best chuck pic ive seen in a while.
