Very artistic indeed.......wonder what something like that would set a guy back? That rear tail light assembly is pretty rad also......sure makes for tiny signals though.

VIPER66 · 11-05-2006

Oh man, well, I got a bid for $375.00 to paint only ONE side of my fairing. I am now doing it myself. :}

That Paint job cost him a bunch of cash, it had to..

**2WheelFun** · 11-06-2006

WHOA!!! That's an unreal paint job!!!

SleekStreak · 11-06-2006

Yes, it's a cool paint job, but it just kills me when people aren't proud of what they own. I could be wrong, but that fairing and then the "Road Kill" script on the front fender that is supposed to like identical to the "Road King" script of a HD makes me think he's trying to pass it off as a Harley to people who see it on the road... and that's just sad. Be proud of what you own.

Anyway... cool paint.

What a cool looking paint job
No question what he believes in then

Wish I knew what the reserve was. Only 3 hrs to go! I bet that bike was well cared for too.

Viper, is that fairing like yours? It has a square bulge - that's different right?

Teamlopez1 · 11-07-2006

To me that bike would be hard to sell becasue the paint job. The reason i say that is because it only would sell to anyone who is extremaly religious. Which would be a very Niche group IMO. But hey good luck to them.

I think the word you're looking for is fanatic.

That is an awsome paint job. But, yes, difficult to sell.

Yes, that one is different. I think it may be an aftermarket fairing. It looks nice though, aye..

Yea, you have to be into that type theme I would think.

Ya think? I am putting a fairing on my NOMAD but don't want it to look like an HD. But I love the way the air is cut way down on the highway.

If was more the "Road Kill" script on the front fender that's the mirror image of the "Road King" script on a HD front fender that got me thinking that way. Then, the two together... *shrug*. For what the paint job cost him I bet he could have had a Road King easy, if that's what he was into.

It's definitely a confused point on this bike. He went to extream on a theme. I bet if we were able to ask...he meant to tie "Road Kill" into the theme somehow.

the HD thing asside it looks totally out of place. That's why I really don't think he was going for an HD look...too much effort toward the theme.

He took a shot at some refference that missed the mark IMHO

Thanks! thats what I wanted to say but didnt want to offend any one person.

BOURBON BOY · 11-08-2006

I like the paint, and if the "road kill" and other religious markings were removed it would truly be unique, something different! B BOY
