That would go perfectly on a "Mail Call" episode. I could picture Gunny Ermey riding on it. Got the mount for the M2 fabricated yet?

I like it!
Now if we could get the military to procure these I definetly would have to get a new MOS.

You shouldn't have done close-ups, looks like a crappy spray paint job.

well atleast it looks like it should then boise. it is a crappy spraypaint job. done on the crappy ripped and gouged plastics that were on it when i totaled it. thanks for noticing. since when have you seen something military all nice and shinny. ever noticed all the over spary everywhere? including the stenciled wording. ITS SUPPOSED TO BE THAT WAY DUH THATS THE POINT!!!!

Who cares how good the paint job is?? Are the military vehicles perfect? I think it adds to authentic streetfighter style, wish I would have thought of those colors. But
I also have something in mind.
Damn nice lookin bike!

thanks alot guys. dont worry though. trust me i have very thick skin and a pshyco ex wife to prove it, lmao!

plus how many people are going to get that close of a look at it when i blow them off the road! a 50 horse shot of nitrous will have that effect!

no one has to like it but it is nice when people do and understand what you are trying for with it. plus it was a cheap fix for my old plastics. i am very happy with it. just not sure how well its going to hold up, but time will tell. if i have to redo it its just an excuse to play more!

I totally got the imperfect, overspray, like a military vehicle edge of it all. So what if one person took it upon himself to prove how little he knows...

Now you just need to paint some sweet lil cheesecake on the side.

Boiseboy.. You definetly are clueless to the military arent ya..
You should take a close up of you opinions before you post them to see if they are worth writing down on a piece of shit paper you would wipe you ass with, before you post them.
That is a "mint" military paint job.
I like it you definetly got to get the helmet.

Ha- wow, you people would say anything looks good. I don't care what you say, that paint job looks like crap. If you are going to try some tribute, at least do it right. No one appreciates anything half-ass, especially the military.

You've never seen military vehicles up close, have you? Someone's missing the whole point.

"ultimate crappy paint-job." Why does everyone on this site kiss everyone else's butt when it comes to how their bikes look? Why can't someone tell the truth once in a while and not be chastised for it? Truth is... No Rice will remember the tough love a lot longer than he will remember all those lipstick marks.

you arent telling me or anyone else things that arent already known though. thats what you dont get. most people seem to understand it. and if they dont, well then thats ok too! all i find it is amussing.

i mean hell, you even missed the fact that there is a hole through the front fairing where the support snaped and poked through. come on if you are gona rag on it be on the ball atleast please.

and i do apreciate your critisism! lets me know i got your attention atleast. thank you

I really like it, very different, looks like it could have been a military vehicle with the spartan seat and polished canisters, how does the nitrous go? Any details on that? Looks like you had an old Brit bike parked there just before you took the photo.

LOVE IT !!


You might want to take a look at Roof Helmets. Made in France, unavailable in the US, they have a distinct look.

This would look good in Olive drab. They also have an even tougher looking one called the "Bumper" .
