Why?

Why not?

Pretty cool to see someone do something different!

That would be a giant hit at our Tues Bike nite at Hooters.  Bobbers get more attention than anything else.  That one is unusual for sure.  It shows a lot of creativity on the builders part.  Personally, other than shows and bar hopping, I'd rather stick to the original design.

     At the very least, we could ride behind this ingenious "project" and watch as his backwards exhaust sucks in the bugs and inclemate weather....allowing us to ride with less discomfort.
   This character has singlehandedly mangled one of the few remaining Valkyrie treasures. He should sculpt abstractly with clay.....not Valks!!

I'm sure it was not designed to be a daily rider. Hence the 3 gallon belly tank only, giving it a 60-80 mile range before fill up. It is deceiving in the photos, But the exhaust is slightly swept forward and slashed cut vertically. Unless a insect does a kamikaze side swipe into the bike, I don't believe one can get "sucked" into the exhaust(s). As far as inclement weather, a box trailer and garage help with shelter. I'm pretty positive you will never have to ride behind it.  :cooldude:

Those look like some mean headers.

it is original. I like it. the point of doing something like this it to be ORIGINAL. want to ride a normal valk, ride ur own. quit bashing. momma always said, if you aint got something nice to say, shut up...  ;)  Hats off to him!!! I like it!!

In a sea of Valks in a big parking lot, you'd have no problem finding that Phat gurl.

Just head towards the crowd.

I like it....... :cooldude: :cooldude: :cooldude: :cooldude: :angel: :angel: :evil:

Don't look too much like a cross country bike, but damn I'll bet it is fun in your local area.......... especially Bike night.

I can take MGM to a Bike night, it gets glanced at, but let me take the Chevy Trike, they are all over it.    Always a steady flow of lookers and question askers.

Sure do put a big knot on ur chest, I think it is called ego.

  Like the black wheels.   :cooldude: :cooldude:

Don't like exhaust going forward.  I'm in desert, hot enough already, but just don't like the look.  Also don't like the big thing sticking up out of tank.  What the heck is that for.

Does it change performance significantly?? What is it like to ride with it sitting up there?

I like the tank and tins... very cool. 

The pipes... well... original... I think he should have flared them up at the rear wheel "Cafe Racer" style... that would have flowed better with the rest of it.

Great job guys :cooldude:. I'm shocked that it doesn't have a PBR attached to it somewhere :).

It's a 'Bobber', not a Cruiser...  One Bad Azz lookin' machine, with some obvious hard work involved...  ;)

I doubt that bugs will get 'sucked' in to the 'exhaust'  :uglystupid2:

I think it looks cool as hell.  One off.  no one has one like if for sure.  Pipes at that angle is not my cup-o-tea but very unique. ;D

Exhaust is just that "exhaust"... not an intake...  no bug is getting in there unless it is parked.

I personally think it's a great job for a local bike.  not going on long trips with it unless you know where all the gas stations are along the way.

Ride fast and take chances... uh, I mean... ride safe folks.
