One of those things that people either love or hate. Like the Rune or Victory Vision. I love it.

I agree.  I'm on the other side.

Oh, and I do think it looks like the grandfather of the Victory Vision.

I think its the coolest. Amazing idea and craftsmanship back then. Now Jesse James is our creative genius pumping out the same stuff as the other drama biker show that never changes.
I've worked in a lot of shops and NEVER had the drama such as is there. Nothing would get done.
On the other hand I had a Henderson that I mowed lawn for  for two years in 1971/2. Equal to about $300.00. Dad had a MAJOR COW an I got to sell it to a friend of his. $300 and a six pack of 16oz bottles of pepsi. Oh if I had all that stuff now.

         Not anymore. West Coast Choppers has shut down. Shocked Jesse may be spending more time trying to get back in Sandra's good graces!
