Went to the Hard Rock Casino today and this bike caught my eye. Looks like an interesting custom but the belt drive had another belt running up by the carb. Upon further investigation I noticed a belt driven eaton supercharger on this thing.

Pictures were taken from my Nextel i860 phone so the quality is real crappy.

Look at the top of the frame.

That's awesome man. Too bad the pic is so blurry but with a camera phone its expected. Havent seen a s/c on a bike since Arlen Ness did it. :nice:

i bet ur vision was just as blurry later on that night :P

Actually this was a few hours ago. Played "Wheel of Fortune" slot machine, only one spin and jackpot 600 credits. So my $20 turned into $50 on one turn. Cashed out, walked around, watched the Texas Hold Em tourny then left. Monday night I went home with $21 profit too.

Yeah Arlen is the man around here. He's been in the bay area forever and was the **** back in the day. Still makes some cool stuff but he makes so much money off his parts line now days and the Big Dog choppers he's not making as many bikes as he used to. But he has a new shop in Dublin CA that upstairs is his museum. It has all of his customs from back in the day. One has a s/c and two nitrous bottles with a skinny up front the size of a bicycle tire. It's a pretty cool museum with all his bikes and the coresponding magazine articles. He's even got one he made for Hulk Hogan back in the 80's that says Hulkamania or something. LOL. It's huge.
