Completing a Theme

Ever since I sold my V-Rod a few years ago Rick (Ricky on SWRides.com) has been bugging me about the custom set of skins that I kept off of my bike.

I told him that I eventually would be putting them back on my own V-Rod again and if that changed we might have to talk.

Recently he upgraded his bike with a 230 rear tire and I even talked about it here. Well at that time he looked in my garage and asked again what it would take. The real hold back for me was that for one I did want the chance to put them on my own V-Rod and I never sold them because some people just don't appreciate things beyond how much money they spent and they would not truly get what this skins were about.

In case you can't tell or you have never seen this set of skins they are a a depiction of Gargoyles being born from lava and springing to life to protect the innocent. You see Gargoyles are not evil and in fact protect people from evil. I'd had offers for this paint set before but usually the guy made some odd comment about how "evil" they looked and how he could be a badass not to be screwed with, with them on his bike. Usually I don't care about something I am selling, but with gargoyles it is different.

Anyway, 4 years and a day after these skins were completed here they rest now on a guys bike who will both respect them and display them proudly and properly.

Not to mention, it was a fun thing to do on the day of a bad moon rising!
