Wild Hogs!! (Before & After)

Finally...the unveiling of the Medusa bike. Here we have a 1990 FLHTCU Harley Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide, I bought back in 1998. It's been pretty much stock for it's 10 years of existence. Due to persistent badgering from my brother Trevor, "we gotta paint it man", the stock blue has received a much needed makeover, as you can clearly see from the before an after pics below. I cruised out to Vegas where me and Trev did the paint. Actually he painted and I watched, you can view his custom paint works on his website www.mafiametal.com. The design was his creation, which displays a mural of Kristen on the front fairing, or at least thats what I told her. She was fooled for about 5 seconds, and then I was in trouble, which is nothing out of the ordinary. I felt in this case however it was better to ask forgiveness than permission. I mean, come on, this was an inspired piece of work, and who are we to ignore the powers on high. We blacked out all the chrome and lenses, which to our fellow African American bikers is called "murdering it out", to give it a more rugged look, which took a ton of sandblasting, but it was worth it in the end (it's all mardid out). The reassembly was painstakingly tedious due to all the performance upgrades we made (I wont bore you with the details). Dad helped me out big time in this department, but we finally finished it. Though not technically a custom bike, this is pretty much the sickest dresser around. It almost makes you vomit when you see it close up, but when you fire it up, and feel the rumble of the 2 in 1 Tunderheader pipe, you better have a paper bag or you'll be wiping vomit chunks off your shoes. Enjoy the slide show. Awesome photo's courtesy of Kristen.
