Thanks mkelley...I want to make sure that mine is mine and not like someone else's. Mine can easily be found in a sea of motorcycles. Pearl white with Frankenstein on both fenders, scratches in numerous spots and plenty of dirt.
Whenever I get a new motorcycle or new paint, I go ahead and scratch it and get it dirty so I don't have to worry about scratching it or getting it dirty! I ride mine and I don't over clean it. Some people have more mileage on their cleaning rags than they do on their speedometers!

Tell me, those pictures on your bike are of frankenstein right? you didnt put pics of yourself on there did you?
That is as nice as any Harley or Indian that I've seen a real'classic look, I don't usally like white bikes but the White and Black thing you got going is very cool and a one of a kind. I bet you get a lot double takes. I heard that Kawi discontinued the drifter thats a shame. You don't see to many that have customized. Last edited by badlandsbrett : 09-03-2008 at 01:36 AM. |

You guys have some sharp bikes as well.
You customized them your way to make them distinctive. That is the key. I don't want to blend in, I want to stand out in a crowd. The pipes on my bike are what they called slipons. One is fake. They run into a single pipe from the converter. I have no put drag pipes on this bike. heck, the chip for the fuel injection is about $300.00! I didn't want bags on mine to hide the fender. I use a tank bag when I carry things. I love the contrast between black and white. And yes, that is Frankenstein (Boris Karloff) on both fenders. I am a huge fan. Frankenstein 1931 is one of my websites.

I thought you were a professional poser,........ I meen actor HA HA
I checked out your site, pretty cool, you would probably get more work if you lived in LA or Canada I can't imagine they do much shooting in Indiana. You look like a shoe in for Sons of Anarchy or other tough guy roles. but you will probably get wacked a lot. have you had any luck landing anything? |

badlandsbrett - thanks for checking out the site. I agree that I would certainly have better luck if I lived in LA, connection wise. I was there last November and met some great people, but trust me, the film industry is VERY competitive and cut-throat. LA hosts many TV shows, like New York, but most major films are shot elsewhere due to tax incentives offered by certain other states.
Canada has much better tax incentives for filmmakers with large budgets than Indiana could even imagine. Indiana has some talented filmmakers and actors, etc., but Indiana simply does not offer enough incentive to attract big name producers. They did film a lot of Fire from Below, with Kevin Sorbo in Indiana this last year. All of the cave scenes were shot here near French Lick. In the trailer for Fire from Below, I am the one with the jackhammer in the very beginning. It is supposed to air on the Sci Fi Channel sometime, just not sure when. And by the way, I can be mean when I am forced to be...lol...actually, I am very passive and charming.
