bikerMetric custom metric bobbers, choppers, and cafe racers by honda, yamaha, kawaski, and suzuki
Icon says they are the “advanced form of simple.”
Got a hundred grand to be retro-mod, rad-bro cool and…. simple?
I had no idea simplicity was so expensive.
Brick, indeed.
A thousand dudes who read this site could do what you see here for half and still get rich.

I remember reading the NY times article and thinking they were actually rather pretty. Over priced, yes, but hey as long as someone’s willing to pay…
yes jenn, they are cool, but 96k for a start? before you want this gadget and that thingamabob?
the purpose of bikerMetric is to reveal how radical or cool you can build a bike without breaking your bank. while some things are nifty, their price point makes them the antithesis of what i’m laying down here.
i actually deleted the last line of my post which stated, “Stupid LA douchebags will buy anything,” mostly because i get a lot of socal readers and wouldn’t want them to think i was a los angeles hater. just a douchebag disliker.
regardless, falcon motorcycles and icon ought to merge into Overpriced **** You Can’t Afford, Inc.
ow.
