This is the latest project. Its a frame that I have been smoothing out for a friend. Look for this thing when its all done in all the magazines. Should be real interesting. And the price tag when its all finished.......$130,000.00 :shocking: !

Crazy stuff..........

OK, I am really sorry, I did not know and certainly did not mean to be disrespectful. Just trying to compliment scott's amazing work and compare him to IMHO an exceptional bike builder. sorry everyone.

Fish boy; I think Indian Larry passed away last year....EdYes he did. If I recall correctly, he was at a bike show and was doing some trick riding that he was famous for (standing on the bike like a skateboard and riding), anyway, he fell off and had severe head trauma and died.

His work was truely beautiful, and from what little I knew of him, a uniquely free spirit.

Yes, I think it happened in August. I didn't really care for his style of bike, but there is no denying he was an icon of the sport, and a very unique person.

Pretty cool bike scott.....My friend has a shop on 37 in Toms River....he makes some wild stuff. None of that orange county chopper, order it and bolt it together junk.......he custom fabs just about every piece on the bike.

here's some pics of his latest one in progress....

Yep, Indian Larry is gone...which is sad...truly a character. We used to peek into his shop whenever we went to a bar around the corner, the Wild Wild West :smileybo:

Scott: Is that an aluminum frame? or steel?
I like sport/cafe bikes (hence 'Guzzi and cbx) but appreciate the craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing. Craig

Rigid frame with plenty of rake and stretch. Looks like a Martin Bro's chopper.

Not going to be very fun to ride but gonna look bad ass!!!!!!!

Mitch,
The guy I'm doing it for is named Martin. He is here from NJ and builds some wild bikes to say the least.
