WTF? When people first get started you have to outsource some stuff. I think this Matt guy is just piss off his bikes don’t look as good! Even OCC, use to outsource all kinds of stuff, now the have the money to do everything in HOUSE! Just my .02……………………..

He said it already, he outsourced and paid for it…. Oh, and “designed” it… That means he could be the perfect middle man in your next build!

It certainly wouldn’t hurt your brand name at all, to let people know that you have a strong network of talent to work with. Might even get you more projects if people see reliable names behind yours. My $0.02.

I didnt buy into the black and orange, after reading abt this build pon two diff place I damn sure dont buy into any of it, dont see anything original abt it looks like every other machine the rubs tend to claim as thiers…. what a shame……

Kick ass seat however

Does Matt at Working Mans Customs know that you are claiming that you did all the fab work on this?
Have you even been to his blogspot? http://workingmanscustoms.blogspot.com/
He has your bike in his garage in different stages of fabrication.
How do I know this? well I am a customer of his!Check out the wallet and belt he did for me on the same site. Matts a top notch guy and for you to be claiming that you did the work is CRAP!!! Dude he even posted the pics of the exhaust on ChopCult when he finished them.
Wicked Choice Huh? To lie?
If you guy’s need something I’d go straight to the source and contact matt@workingmanscustoms.com
This guys a joke!
Donald

Yeah that orange pops, like burns into your eyes. I love Halloween, spooky type stuff. Hey if you’re in Austin and looking to do a tracker, you should check out a guy calls himself Limey Bikes. He specializes in XS’s and looks like he did a real nice tracker. Maybe a good place to get ideas, right? Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see the next one.

Yes, the seat was done by a buddy of mine, here in Austin, Texas. His name is Matt, you can check his stuff out at Workingmancustoms, google it! His seats are awesome, they run between $300-$600, and his also does leather saddle bags and even grips, which are KICK ASS! Thanks for looking dude!

My next bike, which I have started, will be a Flat Track hard tail with clip on bars. Always looking to make bikes lighter and cleaner looking. Thanks for looking!

People have such a weird aversion to color on their bikes. Mags especially look better when done in a wicked color. Your pipes are the coolest, dude. I’m not too keen on the look of apes, but I love the feel of them when actually riding the bike. Love it!

Yes, I can make pipes and handlebars! Shoot me an E-mail if interested with pic’s of what you are going for? Thanks for looking! WickedChoice@hotmail.com

I was going to do a similar short exhaust, do you have any problems with fumes at idle

Just had to adjust and tune carbs in well, due to the larger exhaust pipes! SOUNDS AWESOME!

I’ll have to look into price, I’ll be in touch, and shot me an E-mail, wickedchoice@hotmail.com , The rear fender is a stock fender that I chopped to make it shorter, easy part to make. Thanks for looking!

With custom pipes you have to adjust and tune your carbs in well. Let me know when your done with your build, I’m ready to see it finished! Dude, what your name, shoot me an E-mail, wickedchoice@hotmail.com , LATER

I was going for a different but clean look. The risers are stock with rubber dampers, nothing special, powder coated orange. Seat is close to battery, but no problems, rides great, very smooth. I’ll check your post too! Thanks for looking.

Couple of questions. What did you use for riser bushings? And, maybe it’s just the camera angle, but your seat looks real close to your battery. Any problems? I’m fitting my seat now, and I,m not happy with the 2″ springs. Check out my bike. It’s posted as NOT a trailer queen.

Thanks Chuck, and good luck on yours. Brad thanks too, and the bars are 7/8″ bar, 12″ apes, that I custom made and powder coated Black, let me know if your want some, I’ll make them! Thanks for looking.
