If anybody missed this they should check it out if and when it repeats. cool concept, and the bikes turned out really sweet.

Rooke must of screwed up that LC8 engine. With all that stuff cut off I wasn't sure it would even start. I thought he'd should have done better in the drag race. 'course his bike was not entirely a race bike, more a race custom, & His skills probably aren't quite up to Sands's as well too I guess.
With that engine done proper and dropped in Sands bike..that would be impressive.
there seems to bit a contreversy alluded to in the second link.

Sands bike is what a Buehl SHOULD be. Love the liberal use of Ohlins and a built motor. If I had a cruiser, it would be like that. Sweet.

+1 here too. Sands has built some pretty sweet machines. I read a write up on one of his bikes in a mag last year. And they featured him on Superbikes a few months ago. Actually, I think it was the bike showcased on biker build off. They mentioned it was a tribute to that johny chop guy. I recall him saying he built the frame to the same geometry as a GSXR1000.

As far as custom bikes go. I'll admit, I'd like one. But I'd rather have one like Sands's bike up top.

Rooke makes some cool stuff too.. but his whining and bitching gives riders a bad name.
