This is one of my favorite bikes that I have built.
I bought a West Coast Chopper for 50 bucks at Big Lots, and this is what became of it.

Here is a side by side comparison.

That bike is sweet. I saw it elsewhere and really loved the look. Now I can put a name with the builder. The lines on that are like none other. Great combination on the wheel and paint.

and I love the Color Combo on the Bike..
great work!

Kev.

Here here!

Welcome! i do remember watching this build go together! Very nice. One of the best profiles of a bicycle. Here is what gets me though, as with a few of my own bikes the proportions look great with no one sitting on them, but the ergonomics once you sit on them and try to ride are not that great. Give us a pic of you or another adult sitting on the bike. It will give us a good indication of the proportions.

Thanks! RatOn!

I will try to get some this weeked of me on it.
This one is actually pretty comfy, the Super Tanker was a little tougher because of the ridiculously low bar height.

I love the geometry! Super! How does it handle?

 

[kenny p]

It feels really fast and comfortable.
The handling is really good. I did'nt rake it out to much, so the steering is fine.
The only thing that bothers me while riding it ...... it feels like I should be going 200 miles an hour out on the salt flats like Bert Munro!
Then I realize I'm only going 10 miles an hour through my neighborhood

 

[Easy Skywalker]

Haha! :lol:
Still, really cool bike...

 

[Firewalker]

very nice!!!!

 

[kenny p]

Yeshoney...ask and thou shall receive!

And here is a video my 6 year old took today of me riding it.
Click pic for video.

So how exactly did you achieve the vintage 8mm film look on your video?

Your next mission is to have your 6 yr old film you ridin' that green monster thing...LOL! Even my wife wants to see someone ride that thing. :lol:

Steve, there are pics circulating on different sites of
Kenny P and young Kenny P Jr.(??) riding the medieval
Ben Hur contraption in GWAR/Road Warrior type outfits
that are fantastic !!
I looked for them but cant find any. Maybe he will post one ?
*hinT* *HiNt*
:mrgreen:

I remember the rite of passage circa 1968, when you
would cruise to school after putting the ultra high sissy bar
on your StingRay and getting critiqued by your friends.
Your StingRay determined your place in the Caste' System
of grade school back then.....I would only imagine cruising to
school on a Kenny P creation would instantly make you
BMOC !! Kenny's Son will totally OWN his school !!!

 

[kenny p]

The 8mm effect.
Honestly I have no idea! I have a cheap Kodak point and shoot that has a video setting, I think maybe it might have an effect button somewhere. I'm pretty much a bonehead when it comes to computers and digital stuff. I had my 14 year old nephew show me how to post pics! :roll:

I will see what I can do about rollin' out the monster this weekend for a quick clip for ya and I'll search for the "Mad Max" shots of me and my son from our Road Warrior themed ride. :mrgreen:

 

[Adapt]

I like this green frame...great ideas...

 

[bean]

This is the bike that first led me to this site a few years ago. I found a pic of it online, then followed it here. Thanks kenny . My next build will be an OCC Stingray cut and hack, and will be heavily influenced by this bike.
