...this is one of my favorite builders (http://www.walz-hardcore-cycles.com/englisch/index.html)! I have followed a lot of his builds for a while and they just get more and more extreme!

Nice Billy. He really does do some nice work.

Probably my favorite builder is Matt Hotch http://www.hotmatchcustomcycles.com/ His work is along the line of Marcus'. Very clean and smooth.

Another buy to check out is Billy Lane. http://www.choppersinc.com/flash/index.asp I think he was one of the first, if not THE first, to do a hubless wheel. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.leussink.com.au/Images/EngFeats/ef27-17.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.leussink.com.au/new/eng27.html&usg=__dM0vBptQV2XzatAfUnt19cPZKu4=&h=300&w=400&sz=54&hl=en&start=1&sig2=2l5cxgMnqADK_e-n57E2-g&um=1&tbnid=3sxr7uw_v3_nYM:&tbnh=93&tbnw=124&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dking%2Bof%2Bny%2Bmotorcycle%26hl%3Den %26rlz%3D1T4DKUS_enUS308US308%26sa%3DN%26um%3D1&ei=89kxSu2ECInYMKOf-fQJ

I always wanted to see Billy and Matt join forces to create a Hubless Chopper with Hydraulics instead of a kick stand.

Another favorite of mine is Russell Mitchell (Exile Cycles)

Custom bikes are one of habbits, here's a bike I built on a stock 1993 HD FXR
http://www.adjuvantinc.com/HB_proof/ it was featured in Hot Bike Mag. last August. I'm working on a 1997 HD Roadking which will look just like the FXR only a Bagger.

Those are all nice. The hubless wheel is just wild as it gets. Walz-Hardcore are not hubless, just a really wide single swingarm. One of the things that drew me to the Hardcores was the all black low slung drag look.
99... nice build and congrats on the mag! Have you talked to Tim (SBC on here)? He does airbag systems for bikes out of Phoenix.

No I haven't and wasn't aware of it, I would love to air bag my project but the budget has been tight. Maybe being a fellow VX owner he would offer me a deal I could refuse :). The staff over at Hot Bike are waiting for this build to be completed so they can do an other feature on my latest build. My problem it takes me a couple of years to complete them.This is my last one the FXR is a hot rod for around town, the hot rod bagger will be for both around town and across country. I do this as a labor of love many many hours of cut, grind, and headaches.
