I want to see some Scooters... and some Cafe Racers... something on the other edges. Something custom in those... as well as something taken and Modified to be something else. Both shows of maybe building them from the raw parts and maybe others on modifying something stock to be something else. Things like we do. Taking a Savage and making it a Cafe racer or a Chopper. Or for that matter just restoring something.
NOT another build a Chopper from greatest parts I can have made or purchase and do a tad of metal fab to stick on it show. There are enough of those to satisfy my needs.
What I want is something like what we all do. Which is really a truer form of old skool "choping" than these guys do.
There is a good audience for this other kind of stuff.
Check out next weeks B.B.O. Roland Sands from Performance Machine builds what looks like a V-rod cafe racer on the commercial. They had him on either American Thunder or Corbins Ride on a week or two ago with a V-rod custom that was really sweet. More like the Street Rod only better. Said that's the direction he wants to move the company.
