Ok... I know $75,000 or even the $40,000 for the kit is wayyyy too much money for this bike... but I still think it is BAD-A$S

Add this to the LOOOONG list of Exile's "Almost cool, but not quite" bikes. Raise the "O Ring" end up, throw on some clip-ons, get rid of all that damn rake, and change the damn seating position... mmm... now we're talking.

And I'm sorry... anyone that pays those kind of prices for such a simple damn bike needs to have their wallet forcibly removed and given to me. I don't care how much carbon fiber is on there... only an idiot would shell out that kind of cash for that thing.

I have to disagree about the "simple" part. The parts on this bike are insanely expensive and it just *looks* simple... he does an awesome job of hiding the wires, hoses, cables etc.

$40,000 worth of parts? I don't think so. Let's not mention that they're basically charging you $35,000 in LABOR to build one of those things up. Even taking into account the detail work such as hiding wiring and such... it's not that damn complicated.

I started off the post saying that I thought it was way too much money remember?

But then you started to defend the price. There's no defense for charging $35k in LABOR for a damn bike.

Any bike that can't ride two-up with your gal and has a headlight that looks like the pencil off a flea, I would never consider no matter how much money I had. Much rather ride the gal in the pics than the bike. Blunt, yes - but true. Sorry ladies if that sounds bad.

This bike is a good idea done wrong... Photoshop must fix this tragedy. Back in a bit...

The bike doesn't do anything for me but hey ... if he can get that kind of money for it more power to him, or perhaps he should be charging more. Some people got too much money and if someone like him can separate them from a bunch of it, good on him.

the bike looks OK, the girl on the other hand is hot.

the bike is too much chopper and not enough steet fighter. Needs some clip ons and rearsets.
