Theres alot of detail on that bike, but I'm with Don what a waste of a good bike. All that time and money and I'll bet it will sit in a showroom. Plus I think it looks F**KING SICK[:'(]

Vermino-Ford has a new concept car thats all polished aluminum. They were talking like it was going to see production in the polished version but I don't see how that would be possible, it would cause too much light to reflect and probably be unsafe.

rap took over all the jewelry world.. so anything that is "bling bling" is considered to be rap.. I would like to chrome my whole bike except the fairing- the reason why it makes you unique from other bikes.. the cleaning would be so fricken bad tho, but it's just the same as washing your bike..

And another thing about "showbikes", people pay what? 40K for an aprilla and you think they just keep it in a showroom for the rest of it's life.. no, just like you see lamborgini's and ferrai's riding down the streets of vegas - you bought it to drive/ride it.. i always see custom painted bikes and high-tech ones stunting around at the illegals, but they are ok with taking more of a risk..

I just believe we all have are own price range on things, a person that makes 100K per year will think it's nonsense to do so much to a bullet bike, but a millionaire might consider doing something like that.. it just depends.. as for this R1? the exhaust needs to go, and he needs to at least throw a secondary color into it..

but one thing is for sure, this is only a weekend bike..

I think they outlawed completely chrome vehicles, they reflect the light to much and dissorients the other drivers

Just heard it though. dont quote me

Seems like a waste of money to me, and way too flashy.
