The Drunk Tank.. Nicotine, Gasoline & Alcohol
This here is a custom tank heavily modified by High Test Speed and painted by Scott at Chemical Candy (formerly known as Backstreet Buckets). This started life as one of our Frisco Sporty tanks, which we are out of at the moment, but a big load of tanks coming in hopefully in the next week! Check out Scott's blog for more swanky paint work.
Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 custom
Valentino Rossi's Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 custom
The core of this bike is a 2004 Harley-Davidson XL1200 Sportster, but Rossi has modified the tank—now set lower and further back—and shortened the rear subframe. Large-diameter Fat Boy forks have been grafted on, and the tires are now Firestone scrambler-style rubber, 19” at the front and 16” at the back.

CONFEDERATE HELLCAT X132
Cycle News - May 1, 2012 - Page 34-35:
onfederate has never been shy of making big claims. This is the Alabama company’s latest model, and it comes with a mission statement: “With the X132 Hellcat, we set out to build the toughest motorcycle ever made”. Confederate makes a big play of the Hellcat’s drag racing influence, citing a three-inch diameter steel backbone frame and a “patented drag race powertrain” incorporating a “vertical stack transmission” tied to the swingarm pivot. Owned by former lawyer H. Matthew Chambers, Confederate’s marketing is as heavy-duty as the bike, and champions “the American Way”. Hellcat components include Marzocchi forks, Pirelli Supercorsa tires, a Beringer/Brembo brake system and Motogadget instrumentation. The 132 ci (2163 cc) V-twin motor, developed with the help of S&S, puts out 132 bhp—which might not sound like much given the capacity, but the Hellcat is relatively light at 500 lbs (226 kg). The cost is $45,000. A reasonable price, do you think?

RZ350 - one of the coolest street bikes, EVER.
84 RZ350
From Wikipedia: "Yamaha RZ350 (RD350LCII) (liquid cooled) in some countries) is a motorcycle powered by a twin-cylinder two-stroke engine, reed valved 347 cubic centimeter engine. The bore and stroke are 64x54 mm. It produces 30.4 ft·lbf (41.2 N·m) of torque at 7500 rpm. Coming out in 1983, it was the evolution of Yamaha's popular and well known RD350 (1972–75) and RD350LC (1980–86). Production was carried on into the 1990s and a different version with no YPVS power valve in the engine was used in Yamaha's Banshee ATV until its final model year in 2006 in the United States. Yamaha Motor sold the Banshee in Canada until 2008. There were several other models, the 1985 RZ350F, 1986-92 RZ350F2,N,NF, and the 1992-5 RZ350RR was produced in Brazil.

RZ350 is now a sought after collectors motorcycle in America, and its association with world famous three-time GP champion Kenny Roberts, as it was sold exclusively in the USA as a signature model. It is also raced extensively in Vintage racing leagues, as well as its own racing leagues, often dubbed "RZ cups" in Europe."
