The… needs a new name

[CRASH]

I’ve been asked to whip out a show bike to compliment some show cars, and time is a bit of an issue because this bike has a date for a show or two. So, I’ve been conceptualizing this bike and starting to pull in parts.
It’s a Huffy Rail. It’ll have a Twin Stick 5 speed shifter, and it’ll be black with some charcoal grey.

This is the frame.

It’ll need modifications to the rear triangle to accommodate a disc brake and 3.0 wide slick.

This is a solid stack

This one has some challenging body issues with dents and such. I’ll get started on it right away. There’s going to be some hefty artwork on it by a local in stripe artist.

These are the custom Goat Horn bars made by our own @deven_science .

These are the valve caps, which I am geeking out at how cool they look in person!

Lots of work to come. Stay tuned.

Looking forward to this progress!

Learned that my client is a preacher. So… maybe a show bike with the Grim Reaper prominently displayed is not the theme he’d want. It has to be black and charcoal… lots of cool stuff… but….

Hmmmmm

Holy smokes, the bars are nice, but check out the bends on the bike! That's sick, @deven_science !

The 'twin-reaper' is such a great motif for a build; that will have to get done at some point. Not sure where you'll take this one but you've always got really cool ideas.

I got to check out CRASH's projects in person the other day when I picked up a couple of bikes he was holding for me. Some very cool stuff going on in that shop! I was there for the unboxing of the donor bike for this project. Also got to poach some parts from the stash that aren't needed for the current builds. Thanks again, man, and really looking forward to this build!

How about "The Preacher's Nemesis"? aka "Reaper"

 

[Captain Awesome]

What kind of show cars are you complimenting with this build? Does the preacher want a religious theme?

 

[CRASH]

He hasn’t asked for a name, or a theme, only a color combo and cool accessories.

This bike will compliment a few of his darker cars:
-2024 Z06 better with a midnight carbon paint. (Which is the black I’m going to use)
-1981 Camaro Z28 with Charcoal Iridium (the charcoal I’m going to use)
- and he showed me a ‘72 GMC Sierra

I just started spit balling some names…

Dark Horse
Special Dark
Twin Midnight
Midnight dark
Pitch Black
Twin Darkness
Dark Times
Dark smoke
Black ice

Does the preacher want a religious theme?

He didn’t say. I guess I should ask. But something that came to mind that might be slightly religious in tone and possibly not too corny: “Dark before Dawn”

 

[CRASH]

“Noah’s Dark” came to mind, and made me cringe.

Thunder Rail
Smoke Shot
Coal Train

Love the ideas and the bars!

I'm in the name train:

• Nighthawk (inspired by the F117 Stealth plane)
• Shillelagh (pronunciation: She-Lay-Leigh (or at least that is how I think Americans would say it )) its an Irish fighting stick with black soot on it.
• Blackthorn (Going on about the Shillelagh theme)
• Smoke cycles
• Black oxide (its a coating for steel)
• Charmander
• Black Mamba
• Black Snake Moan (That's a movie, a good one though)
• Tarpit

Baphomet would be a interesting name.

Obsidian Flash?

Too fancy? I kind of like it.
