This made me laugh hahaha

cant wait to see the real thing! And after seeing Composimos bike at a full front 3/4 shot, I think I want black as well #classy

Fracking hilarious. rkwfxd has a man crush on the bass player. Bahahahaaa!!!

LOL! Ram Jam and the ladyboy bass player was the first thing I thought of when you mentioned Black Betty!

Oh man, I just realized I named my build Great White. I hope you guys aren't expecting me to post a project theme video of an overrated '80s hair band....

Yes, we all do. We know you are the "super" (with a lisp) creative type so just roll with it! :wink:

I'm going to call my build thread Big Bens Build. Baahahah. I slay myself...,

You guys kill me. :crazy: I almost posted up the ZZ Top cover of that song just because ZZ Top is cool and Billy Gibens is know for his custom cars. I thought it might be fitting but then decided I wanted to stay more original.

Anyway.....

Here is a link to the mirrors I am using.

Are you going to wear a cool bandana like the bass player in that band???

No. I always wear a helmet. Been looking for a new one and my parts man is going to hook me up with a deal on the MSR dual sport helmet. It will go well with Black Betty. :cool2:

Very cool. You could always put the bandana on top of the helmet!!

or around my thigh in true Chachi fashion.

OK I just KNOW everyone is DYING for updates on my build so here you go.........

Still don't have a Grom.:disappointed:

It MIGHT be delivered tomorrow and depending on the time I MIGHT pick it up tomorrow. If not then Wednesday. If not Wednesday then Sunday because I will be out of town Thursday - Sunday morning.

Just as well I guess, I have learned a few more things while waiting and my build plans have changed a bit.

Whew! I can breath again....

You don't have your grom yet? Do they not know who you are.

Show them your post count

Don't feel too bad, mine is from a level 5 powerhouse and it isn't supposed to get here til probably Friday.. :sigh:

On a better note the I stopped at the original dealer inquired to about the Grom and told them all about today and they're still a few weeks out on their ONE unit.. HA! Suckers, glad I didn't waste my time with them

and post count counts how??

Post count = HP.

HP = Hulk smash if Grom doesn't arrive soon

I like the the style you are going after!

Thanks. I had an idea and asked Shapeshifter if he could PhotoShop it for me. His version came out great. Biggest obstacles for me right now (other than not even having my Grom yet) is that most of the parts I want to use are not readily available here in the US.

I am sure that will change very soon.
