Build Cost
$40,000
What was the inspiration?
I had a dream of building a 30" build and was told I couldn't do it. After calling several large name builders and realizing that the amount was out of my reach and wouldn't allow me to know every step of my build, I set out to accomplish what I was told couldn't be done in my garage.
How long did it take you to build?
6 months - nights and weekends
How long have you been building?
When I started this bike, it was my first big build from ground, up. I have been building for other people for the last two years.
Your future plans?
One day to live my dream of building and customizing motorcycles full time.
