1999 Custom Buell Cyclone

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

It was all about building a bike that was my style and unlike anything else. Most of all to be able to show it and hop on it and ride 200 miles

I wanted to build a crazy frame to challenge myself.

I am most proud of the frame with the twists. The down tube is 4 pieces of 3/4″ solid bar that was twisted in a lathe.

Being able to say that i built the frame and springer front.

They always want to know how it rides and how the roundstock was twisted. Alot of people like the paint ,which i did not do
