key inspirational bikes: Matt Daigle's Funky Butt

This is Matt's 130 horse, 400 lb, 100 CI S&S Sportster chopper. Lightend and knife edged flywheels, billet heads, and a six speed Baker tranny!
It's good for a 10.32 at 133.6 mph and the 1/8 mile in seven seconds!
So yeah... LIGHT, FAST, SKINNY, GROUND CLEARANCE, STOPS GREAT, HANDLES GOOD, great suspension, high pipes, ultra light Marchesini wheels!
Wicked.

Random inspirational bikes

A Bill Dodge built 93" S&S Shovel. 23" front wheel, 6 speed Baker tranny, Brembo rear brakes, And black Pro Tapers.
LIGHT, FAST, SKINNY, STOPS ...ER... BETTER THAN MOST REAR ONLY BRAKE-BIKES, TOUGH, HANDLES GOOD, GROUND CLEARANCE, high pipes, does dirt!
Note: smooth belly. Like a rock crawler or a dirt bike. Just throw a skid plate on there and you are set.

My chopper manifesto

I do not accept the assumption that a rigid framed motorcycle cannot go fast, stop quickly, or handle well. I want my choppers to perform above the social accepted performance standard for rigid framed motorcycles; (that is to say: BAD)
These are the standards I have set before myself to achieve with said choppers:

My choppers must be able to Evade, Pursue, and allow me to survive.
My choppers must be light.
My choppers must be skinny and be able to navigate tight traffic with ease.
My choppers must go fast, accelerate hard, stop well, handle good, and do so without fusing my vertabrae.
My choppers must not scrape hard parts when leaning.
My choppers are not bar hoppers.
My choppers are not non-functioning scuplture.
My choppers must function like a real, useable vehicle.
My choppers must be a valid mode of transportation.
My choppers must not be built for other peoples enjoyment or entertainment.
My choppers must be built for me and my preferences and standards alone.
My choppers must not be fragile.
My choppers must be able to hop curbs, hit potholes, skid, wheelie, do burn outs and crash without breaking.
My choppers must be able to be ridden on all sufaces (Pavement, dirt, gravel, snow, sand, mud)
