    Those are some cool old bikes! Thankfully the really big wheel thing seems to be dying out. 30" wheels are dumb in pretty much every case, and now there are a few that have gone bigger than that. I almost pulled the trigger on a WCC roller a couple years ago when Jesse wasn't making bikes, but held back. Now he's making frames and parts again and someone way overpaid for that frame. I am going to build a little hot rod bar hopper at some point, something timeless, with nothing but wheels and a motor... pure function.

    Ive got the fever again pretty bad, my neighbor is getting fed up with his first year pan and I'm waiting with baited breath... I hear you, I just want something super-simple/clean/lean... Hard tail again... BUT I wouldn't kick a EVO FXR out of bed either, I like the unique look of a trick FXR... I'm not a picky man...

    American v-twin with knees in the breeze. ;-)

    Another one of my good friends owns Knockout Motorcycles. I was trying to save a pic of my favorite bike they've built but I can't get it bigger than a thumbnail. Go to http://www.knockoutmotorcycles.com/ and click on motorcycles (http://www.knockoutmotorcycles.com/motorcycles.htm) and the first one on the second row, #14 is my favorite one they've built. That thing is a rocketship, like tear your arms off fast.

    If I had my way I'd have about 6 or so (more) scoots in my garage. Gotta have a bagger or 2, a Heritage, a little bobber, an FXR, something really old and like park in the living room kind of cool, but all fully functional and ride ready.

    A lightweight large CC XR 750 replica would be fun I think... REpop parts (tank/seat/fender) are available...
