Speed Club Garage Welcomes ~ “Blue”

Went out last night with Druncle and picked up this monster; a 2000 Yamaha Banshee. For all my 2 wheeled interest, I’m an ATV man when it comes to spring/summer powersports. In case you’ve been living under a rock, these Banshee’s are KILLERS! With a 350cc twin, water cooled 2-stroke motor, aftermarket aluminum head and FMF pipe, this thing cranks out about 45HP making it the fastest-accelerating two-stroke engine ever produced. Not bad for weighing in at only 386lbs. It’s no chopper or bobber but it is crazy fast, good old-fashioned Minnesota fun !

The Man Behind the Heavy

Caught Heavy himself (Zac Doom) at the Bike show last weekend shooting pics for his blog, Heavy-Clothing.com (previously lifeisfuct.com). This guy and is definitely one of the Twin Cities proud few who exudes Midwest chop culture on an hourly basis. If you’re into weapons of the road, LSD, skateboards, choppers, tattoos, or generally anything HEAVY, you’re gonna love his blog. Check it out and give him your money.

Rusty Chop ~ 3 hours in.

So here’s the Rusty Chop about 3 hours into assembly. I was in charge of snapping photos and drinking his beers. I think I did a damn god job myself. The Rusty Chop looks good too. It’s a ’79 xs650 with a kansas customs hardtail, maxis whhitewalls, my custom chopper wiring, and a sporty tank. Unseen is a set of custom made shorty pipes and a prettt heavy duty rear fender. Those whitewalls add just the right touch of bling to this rusty rocket. Check back daily. More chopper blog to come.
