THE BEAST!!!! I probably sound pretty conceded and don't mean to come off that way... to be honest I'm just so damn proud of how this bike turned out I have been showing it off everywhere I can. I've never had a bike that everyone crowds around and asks questions so for me this is a new thing. I have to give a HUGE thank you to a good friend of mine TOM SUMMERS!!! He volunteered TONS of ideas,sugeestions, and ALOT of good old fashioned hard work. The paint job is a Tom Summers Signature work, and the frame was HEAVILY modified by a friend of Toms. I will tell anyone if you get the chance to work with someone of Tom's caliber take them up on it. It was a learning experience that no amount of money could pay for!!!!! Especially one thing that he taught me...... PAY ATTENTION TO THE LITTLE DETAILS!!!!!!! |

The Beast started life as the Copper Chopper. I have some "In Progress" Pictures I will post later. the bike is roughly 10' long with 4.5 inches of trail |
 |
For being such a tall bike the seat height is not that bad. I haven't measured it yet but I can sit REALLY comfortably on it. I got home from the smoke out and headed over to see my family and I've logged about 500 miles on the bike. DROVE, DROVE, DROVE, I think my family thought my ass was glued to the seat!! |
 |
The flame job runs from the tank and is the same on the fender... HUGE THANKS TO TOM!!!!! His paint jobs KICK ASS!!!!!!! |
 |
The bike has had VERY few changes in the last year. But one HUGE improvement was the Mikuni Carburetors. I bought them from Ken at Cylce Exchange. Let me tell ya these carburetors ROCK!! I've seen significant increases in preformance. Low, Medium and High end are ALL improved. Twist the wick on these bad boys and it's instantly GO TIME!!! I don't usually recommend parts. But I've bought and installed these carbs and I would recommend them to anyone with a 750 honda. All I can say is WOW, these work better than I would have ever believed!!!! |

I'm in the process now of converting my spoked wheels over to invaders. That is why you will notice a spoked wheel on the front and a invader on the rear.. SOON to be fixed. BUT, in the photo's below you can see that The Beast originally had front and rear spokes. Also I have to say, Tom Summers really surprised me with his attention to detail and Having "Slick" painted on the side of the oil tank is just one of those little touches that really set him apart from other builders. It was also a nice surprise when I picked my new frame up and it was personalized... Thanks TOM!!!! |

That 750 motor looks HUGE!!!!!! I found that without
forward controls the motor looks even BIGGER!!!!

Some one ask for it so here it is... Me on the bike... Just like it was made for me!!!! |
