Saturday Night Specials: Odd ball engines, Trick Frames

Here's a few examples of some unique builds centered around not so common power plants in some nicely handcrafted frames. Hell, the whole bike is nicely handcrafted, but you get the idea.

Chopper Live 2

Normally, I take this thing for what it is. Made for TV motorcycles. A season end side show of the big names in prime time television. A ratings ploy to see off the decades long soap opera and usher in the new guys that will replace it. But I was impressed and surprised to see the finished product of what I was suspecting to be another circus act of cobbled up theme bikes. In fact, there's only 1 this time. And I normaly wouldn't give this thing a mention, but I was so surprised with the switch in thought and execution that it got me thinking. Has real motorcycling finally made it back around?

Saturday Night Specials: Tube Frame Buell Customs

Eric Buell had a real moment of genius when he conceived the idea of Buell Motorcycles some 25+ years ago. powerful V twins in a light well handling package. As exciting and innovative as the XB and 1125 series bikes are, there is still something raw and beautiful about the Tube Frame bikes that keeps my attention a little bit more. Something about a Sportster engine crammed in that pipe work. Gives it that classic race bike/muscle bike feel that you miss with an aluminum twin spare that just gets in the way of everything. Here are some interesting examples of some tube framers with a little imagination thrown at them.
