T100 Bobber
Here's a direct link. I personally wouldn't ride something like that but it's pretty cool to see such an undertaking and transformation. Kinda like that ESPN Metric Biker Builde-off show. 8-)

I'm sorry - can't help but think 'how to f*** up a good bike'.
Bobbers are all cool but for some reason taking a nice T100 to create a bobber just seems wrong.
Butcher something which can't go round corners in the first place :-D

The bobbers remind me of the good old days when all us wild drunken hooligans were blatting around on greasy rats put together with spare parts-Rock and Roll

I have to agree with Bri. What could have possibly been going through that guys mind besides Meth that could have told him that this was a good idea? I especially find APE Hangers ridiculous looking. 2 Thumbs way down!

To me it seems brutal to do something like that to a bike that has so much style in the first place. Guess I didn't grow up with that particular culture so its hard to reconcile.

But I appreciate the fact he wanted to use the T100 as his "canvas"

I know that's right... I'd personally need much longer arms.
