If you’re like me, you’re looking at image #3 up there and your thoughts are something like, “Oh God, kill it with fire!”
Bear with me here. (Remember to breathe.)
Were money, time, skills, space, tools, and other things summed up in the word “life” not a factor, I’d take a minute and seriously consider combining picture #1 with picture #2. Why?
BECAUSE IT’S WEIRD.
For you aficionados (read hipsters, don’t get mad because I are one) out there, the top pic is the Harbortown Bobber, and it is SO choice, if I’m allowed to quote Ferris Bueller. You can check it out in some pretty sweet videos at choppertown.com if you like. I recommend it.
Pic #2 is a complete front end kit for a Model B Ford offered by SoCal Speed Shop for a surprisingly reasonable price. Again, check it out on their website. Use a google.
Does the Can Am Spyder represent everything I disagree with about motorcycling? Yes and no. It does put butts in seats that wouldn’t normally find themselves there, and I commend them for that. It’s not something a purist (hipster again) is ever gonna love, even if they enjoyed riding one.
On the weirdness factor alone, I want to someday see a 3-wheel bob in the wild. If you’ve seen one, or know of one, share it!
