I saw a couple of guys with Hard Knockers. The look very cool!

But...

They said at highway speeds they buzz so much you think parts are going to fall off.

The bolts are cheap enough that they actually do fall off...

But if you upgrade all the hardware, and use it only as a bar hopper, they are fun.

For the work, I would rather make a bobber.

I have looked at the Johnny Pag stuff... not bad bikes either!

I just figured for under 3k I can get a darn good start on another bobber. I just want it for the cheap frame and accessories. All issues that have been mentioned or easy for me to fix unless its the ones about him and his orders and shipping! I buy once and thats that!

I honestly can't remember the guys name though.
