            Not sure hitman is even around here any longer, Rob. The original post was five years old.

              This was one of his also. A little less over the top, and more to my liking

                  This would be the #1 sweetest bike I have EVER seen, IF he knocked a FOOT off the swing-arm. Would make it such a FUNCTIONAL street machine, that everybody woulds drool over. Just unbelievable work and un-matched craftsmanship... Truly beautiful...

                    Agreed, unless one is drag racing and needs it, I dont see the point of the whole extended swingarm thing.

                      I think the custom scene follows trends found in the cruiser market in general, and long has been in since about forever. It's a phallic thing.
