Here are shots of the existing piece of shit with the new tanks recommended by Paul, who builds some of the most innovative bikes on the planet.

Paul's philosophy is to manufacture enough custom components to allow his customers to build something without doing a piece-meal job. "Instead of buying fenders from me that don't fit the other guys' frame properly and then mount a gas tank from so and so, and nothing fits properly, I want to give the customer half a chance to build a world-class custom on his own." Paul's positioning himself, unlike Bandit, to afford customers with frames, plus the fenders, tanks and billet components to match.

Paul began his operation building LED taillight products. Unlike the slob who runs this joint, Paul is a young man of vast energy and talent who could not contain himself building bikes with existing components. He began building his own fenders, air cleaners, frames, etc. The young upstart with the flaming red hair does share one notion with Bandit: "If you're going to build a new full-custom for a customer, I want the bike to be a reliable runner, of the newest technology, or how can you call it a new bike?" So all of Paul's bikes are built with Harley-Davidson Twin Cam drive lines. "I use as much Harley stuff as possible," Paul said. "Plus the factory is going crazy building more new accessories all the time. The selection is growing by leaps and bounds."

Damn, if I told that lunkhead Bandit once, I told him a thousand times, it's time to move away from the Evolution shit into the real world of Twin Cams. But that motley-minded minnow is still out in the garage trying to put two Mikuni's carbs on his '48 Panhead.
