Cool yes but between having my ass 2 inches from being ground off with a tire and a drive chain rubbing up against my ankle, I would pass on it.

Don't reach behind to scratch your rear while you're riding that thing because you'll be minus a couple of fingers before you know it.

That, and you'd better have some damn long arms. Being the knuckledragger that he is, it's no wonder TeeJay likes it.

Better take care of those hemorrhoids before you ride it.

| I doubt people actually ride their fully custom choppers anyway (2 gallon tank) , so what does it matter if it's dangerous to ride? |

nice looking- freakin unfunctional as hell thou- IMHO - would have been better to flare out the sides of the tank -to a sharp tear-drop shape to emphasis the low profile- and move that saddle up..

Would suck if the seat fell off while you were cruising down the freeway...

Especially because when the seat broke your rear would land on the tire while you're doing 60 mph and I think it would just suck your whole body down into the frame and onto the pavement.

I can grab a hold of the running board on a bug from the driver's seat.
How about a forkless chopper with quarter elliptical spring?
