I love the Diamond plate for the headlight.
Yeah, I know I look like a dork sitting on it, but I couldn't resist!
I asked him if he ever thought about making them and selling them at bike shows, and he said yes, but that would be work. He's retired, and just likes to do things once, and sit back and enjoy them.
I envy this guy!
I'm so glad you shared this with us...it's so cool and it embodies what one can do with a bit of imagination...you can make bicycles for kids, motor bikes for dorks like us, and lawn decoration pieces...
ReplyDeleteBTW...you don't look like a dork on it...you're just a dork like the rest of us...lol
This post is food for thought...and I'm getting hungry.
What a great sculpture. With an imagination like that I can only guess what else must be in his back yard.
ReplyDeleteGives me a few ideas too - although more ideas is not something I really need. More time would be better!
Very cool. The fact that he does this for his own enjoyment makes it even more special.
ReplyDeleteIt would be cool to have one of these in the yard though, wouldn't it!
You don't look like a dork on that thing...you appear like the artist intended you to appear...involved in a piece of art... and enjoying the experience!
ReplyDeleteCool!
I think it's pretty cool. There was once a mail box holder kinda like that years ago on the westside of the state.
ReplyDeleteDorky? Nah...if I were with you, I'd want my turn sitting on it.
ReplyDeleteLove to have one of those for the yard!
i LOVE it. what a fun piece of art...its just too cool.
ReplyDeleteFunny the things you find in peoples back yard. It’s a shame it’s not in a public place so everyone could have their chance to sit on it. But I enjoyed the photo anyway.

Pretty cool. I think that would be a riot if it bounced around.
ReplyDeleteDork, pfffttt...who gives a crap. I make a hobby outta making a dork of myself.
Some of the biggest dorks are the hardest of the hardcore. Why in the hell do you think they are so angry and distant...they just don't know how to deal with it. Hell, I embrace it. Wish everyone did and stopped taking themselves so damned seriously...live it because it's all you.
I love the pict because it's you dude, just the way you are. That's what makes it so good.
Baron,
ReplyDeleteHey, I said I looked like a dork, I didn't say I was one like the rest of you! J.K.) LOL! Now go eat a motorcycle sandwich and cure that hunger.
Canajun,
We could all use more time. Right now I have more time than money, and I don't have much time either! LOL!
Lady Ridesalot,
I agree with the fact that he does this for his own enjoyment makes it even more special, Just wish he would build me one.
Chessie,
Aw shux! Thanks! I felt like a kid sitting on a bicycle pretending to ride a real motorcycle.
Webster World,
Thanks Bro! If you ever get a picture of it, or can find it on the net, please do share!
Dean "D-Day",
Thanks! I can't believe my co-worker didn't want his picture taken on it. I felt like I was at Disney at one of those tourist photo Op places that you just can't pass up!

Aha, Someone honest who admits I looked like a dork! LOL! I just didn't care, 'Cause I knew most of us motobloggers would have done the same thing given the chance.
mq01,
Thank you, and thank him for making it! It IS just too cool.
GYMONR,
It IS a shame it’s not in a public place so everyone could have their chance to sit on it.
Thank you all for dropping by and leaving your comments here!
FLHX Dave,
ReplyDeleteThanks man! Funny, I just posted a comment on one of your posts (roids) about how I like reading your blog because you aren't afraid to let it all hang out.
You are genuine.
I could easily stick one of those on the front lawn. Too bad he isn't selling them.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be making them either if I were in his shoes though. Life's meant to be enjoyed, not worked.
Wayne, I hear you, but then again, I enjoy doing things like that. So making them would be fun. Too bad it would take away time from other things I enjoy as well.
