Random Inspirational bikes

Found on the Mulligan Machine blog:

I dig this XS. Although I personally don't go for goosenecks, or forwards that much anymore... it's still nicely done and clean, and to be fair, I have spent many a mile on my old XS chopper with forwards and liked it.
(I just need to stand up a lot now, plus I just want my bikes to be "tighter" nowadays)
And those pipes are exactly what I want to do on my next XS Attack Chopper.
He's running an 18 on the rear and he says it handles great.
I'm totally into this one.
LIGHT, SKINNY, FAST, GROUND CLEARANCE, HANDLES GOOD, high pipes

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)
