No 8 if I must, but I am not really impressed with any of them.

What bodypart do I lose if I say none of em?
I mean, if it's only a little finger I'll just take the hit and get it lopped off with a billhook but if its my right hand I guess I'll go for the orange one?

Do I have to get a pisspot lid, a Pretend I only have one chin instead of three goatie beard and full on IT department technician set of jangly keys on a fucking dog chain hanging off my belt with a Leatherman tool as well?

Sod it, just lose the hand.

Oh definitely No7, the rest can go to hell, although I could manage to not feel too bad if I had to ride either of the two blacked out ones

Not averse to the idea of having a Harley and 1+5 are on the right lines but urgently require pillion seat.

I think I'd prefer much more of a rat bike look for mine. Rat bike look but look closer and it's solidly engineered, just well used.

It's also important I think, if you're going to have a custom bike that says something about you, you have to build it yourself.

The v angle on the swing arm is bigger, guess it could be a modified arm too. I like it a lot

If I had to actually ride one,I'd be a bit stumped. 7 and 8 have the pegs in the proper position and I detest faux dirt bike aesthetics,so it would have to be 7.

1 and 5 look not bad,but I can't be having that feet forward thang.
