Nice damn Falcon!

Oooo! I LIKE this seat!
...ok, I like the rest of the bike too, but the seat is the part of my shark-fin bike that Ty made me think I should have put more thought into. You know it is odd...I thought "No no, custom seat is too hard" but yet, I fabricated and welded special mounts onto my frame to attach the seat spring to, and also did the upholstery for my saddle. ...so... sometimes I have a 1-track mind and ideas go by on the other track going the other direction. ...and hey! This bike is even a FALCON! ...my first and only cool car was a 66' Falcon.

I gotta say, I really REALLY fucking miss my old shop, all my tools and cheap, crappy bikes to wrench on. God dammit. Kids? Don't be retarded like dad and think that when you move to a another country all the things you enjoyed in the "old country" would be there for you in the new one. I need about a jillion dollars and I can have a good bike shop again.

Anyone who feels sorry for my ass as much as I do, say "aye".
...then say, "Shiver me timbers, tis been a rough journey". ...I like it when you talk like a pirate.

....what?

PS I guess lots of other people like this bike too. After I wrote this I went back to the guys FB page and noticed that this bike was featured in GQ, Playboy, Forbes Style, Men's Journal and several other mags. Normally that would REALLY turn me off, but dammit the bike is so cool I am just gonna keep likin' it.
