Martin Bros Choppers

[05 Busa LE]

Been staring at this thing all day ... then, like some type of an optical illusion, when I look at a pic of any other bike, the other bike looks deformed. Like too short and tall.

Anybody diggin' this Martin Brothers' "Purple Gangsta" like I am?

Martin Bros. definetly makes some wild choppers, I got to see some up close in Daytona @ Biktoberfest

You know wht I like is the Fact that the Martin Bros are here in TEXAS and yes I love the designs the Martin Bros.

I like slightly taller bikes. The long and low isn't for me when it comes to choppers.

i don't like these new style choppers at all. i like ol' skool like
indian larry used to build. of course i'm 60 years old and listening
to merle haggard right now.

Not too into their stuff ... although the only ones I've really seen are from the Biker Build Offs on tv.

Bit too radical for me.

If I had the $$$, I would get myself one from these guys ... http://www.exilecycles.com/ ... more the style I like.

I think for the money you'd be better getting a M109 or similar and customize the shid out of it .... you'd save some coin

Enormous amount of work , POS motorcycle. form without function is nothing, waste of time and money. IMHO

Custom choppers are sculpture on two wheels---beautiful! Having said that, they are way over priced; they don't handle, brake or turn well. Many are unconfortable if your in the saddle too long. What about resale value? Basically, they are d--k wagging tools!

Yaffe's definitely talented, and that's a sharp bike ... but I like exactly what you don't--the fact that the bike is long and low, yet that tank's got a radical slope! All in what does it for ya ....

It's growing on me. Loved the biker build-off shows. Nothing like watching these guys build art from scratch. If I had the money I'd have some sort of chopper in my garage.
