Excuse me tews but don't feed the animals. lol. Btw, apparently he was having a bit of a religious war on another thread. I think it was the combined efforts that made him shun this forum.

i like KingCustomCycles i think hes a cool guy gives some good input. so what maybe he does some shady stuff. who dosnt? i do.

i think overall hes more good than bad i guess if you want to put it like that.

the no front brake thing look really really cool!!!

also i came up with a solution for the front brake safty issue. use a lever and wheel chalk tire brake!!! still having a steam punk look and could fit with the build look  8)

or you can just carry a stick and cram it in the rim and it will slow down the bike. the spokes will break off slowing the bike down  :P

If you want to make a hundred grand selling bikes online, guess it would not a good thing to get your build bashed.  Just sayin'...

I see both sides (or did until he deleted his posts) ...  As a professional you NEED to remain professional or you lose all credibility.  Unfortunately for King he lost sight of that.  After reading other posts of his it appears as though he lost sight of that a while ago.  Once again, take the good from what people do here (and King did plenty of good) and take the garbage and mud slinging with a grain of salt.  I do my fare share of arguing no doubt.  Usually when people up and bash someone for no reason whatsoever.  Its a part of forums always will be.  No big whoop.

 Every time any owner strips whatever precious Honda part the horrified purists parts go up in value. That's not the part that bothers them.
 What bothers them is they sat up late at night, their breast full of wonder and estrogen, unable to sleep, dreaming about their lovely darling and all her glory... and next thing you know someone else doesn't share their emotional deluge and their reaction is they must spread their mind museum as far as they possibly can, taking over as much of the real world as possible.

Well, as much as I liked the guy (simply because he gave me some good information, I pass no judgment on anything else), I am seriously pissed off that he deleted all his old posts. He just removed all the help he ever gave me, so yay, I guess I'll be reasking a lot of questions.

Hi Greg, man, i am a member of a couple of forums for bikes and a couple of guitar forums and i have to say that this place is relatively tame, seriously, the guitar guys can be extremely lame {arty types} and carry on like little girls for months. Considering this place is full of bikers i think it deserves a round of applause for the way it is self governed..... Too a degree..... ;D

Rocket Man, this is one that i like most,, Not for the faint at heart,,Yep i Have Guns and a Bible. Jump in all, we would love to hear from ya!! Oh just like you guys from Down under we don't have thin skin LOL!!....Here is just part of our Rules before registration..........> 2) Political correctness is DEAD here, and if you spend your time here trying to enforce it, you'll be disappointed and ultimately banned. That's not meant as an intimidating threat, but as a hearty welcome to those who refuse to be brow-beaten into speech-codes by the Left. You'll find that some of us here refuse to partake in political correctness, to the point of irreverently using political incorrectness whenever it strikes our fancy to do so. That said, political incorrectness is not equal to rank bigotry, and we are all expected to know and demonstrate the difference.  http://itsaboutliberty.com/index.php/board,1.0.html

Hey Rocket, whatya say we rip the top off a few, get good and pissed and really let all fly?  If this is a biker board, maybe it's time to acting like it. LOL 8) 8)

I know Mike is still here some where, and he may not be laughing at all this.  However I am!  Some of this sh!t has become hilarious.  Really guys?  Time to move on...all of us...let's let it go boys.  It's died a horrible painful death.

As far as his advice, some was OK, some was questionable, and some was downright wrong. A newbie wouldn't know the difference, just like the first time rider he sold the bike to wouldn't know how important a front brake is.

I don't disagree (no front brake on a bike is down right stupid) ...

But buyer beware.  Many of use have bought bikes with faulty front brakes due to age and neglect.  My PO certainly didn't divulge the info that my front brake was going to lock up on me on my first couple rides.  This being my first bike I had no idea what I was in for.  At least these people had the benefit of seeing that there was no rotor/caliper/master cylinder....

That being said. Selling an item as a dealer/refurbisher does come with some responsibility.  My opinion is he DIDN'T hide anything, which is MUCH more than I can say for C.L. and Ebay sellers. 

Once again, take what you read here as advice.  Advice can save you, put you behind bars, or worse get you killed.  And that's why it's advice and not something more.

As a part of my job I go with my boss to purchase cars for our fleet of limousines and sedans.  I have heard every lie in the book.  In the end the purchaser has all the leverage.  If you want the truth and dont know the answer take it to a professional.  If the seller won't let you, he's hiding something or not worth dealing with.  PERIOD.

My feeling is this thread has pointed out to king that he has conducted himself in a manner not befitting a true Christian, and deleted his posts in shame. I might be wrong, but for his sake I hope I'm not.
