'The American Eagle'
I've filmed American eagles in their natural surroundings. They flew high and low, never really afraid of anyone or anything. What about flying on an eagle's back? Would you like to observe the world form an untouchable perspective? A motorcycle customized in this manner, along with the idea of freedom and prosperity in your mind, is the closest one will get to that sensation. Well, if you've watched "Easy Rider", you know what it is all about!
Apart from that, this is an ode to the American culture. There are only two manufacturers whose bikes would truly fit this style. That would be Indian and Harley-Davidson, the legends. Here we have an HD. Indians are quite rare, unfortunately.
Eagle's foot stand is looking really cool. As I said, it is very important to follow the theme. Notice the number of details. 'Lets' park the eagle, let it stand there!'
Custom eagle head lid for the gas tank. Absolutely cool. The USA flag accompanies the eagle and speaks volumes of what it used to stand for through the history. Today, regarding the world-police imperial politics, not sure most of the world believes much of that anymore. But motorcycle customization is an art of feelings and illusions, it is not about politics, so let's take the original meaning and enjoy it! :-)
Spacious, hard suitcases are painted in feathers. Right on! Fly me to the Moon. Pun intended here. I am a moon landing sceptic who doesn't believe that the needed technology was invented back in the sixties (not only to go there but to take pictures in -60C). Whats more, their entire computing power couldn't match an iPhone3. Who can prove that the whole thing wasn't staged just to get ahead of Russia's space program? If not for real, at least in a form of a grand show. Where is the original footage? Oh, it officially 'got lost' in NASA... What a shame...
Not sure what is this. It is painted in Croatian Coat of Arms chequered colours and is located on top of the suitcases. It is not a lock because the lock is elsewhere. Hmm... A riddle! Must remember to ask later on.
The white seat also fits with the style and works well with the idea.
Still unfinished! Guys are refitting the headlight.
Mufflers are covered in leather. Please help with the correct word for these. The leather moves when the engine is ignited and produces an interesting effect. Not my personal style, I'd never put these on my bike. One needs to see the mufflers, not only to hear them.
This guy just brought in the flag as I was already on my way out. There we go. We Croatians are aware where HD's come from. Even though we make them ride way better than the original versions. We... Well, Bojan and the crew. I just take pictures, drink coffee and feel good. :D
Enjoy your day! :-)
