I was tossing up between buying a $27,000 2012 Harley Davidson V-Rod and a $1000 2009 Bowell 50cc Jolie.
vs
The V-Rod had hog like styling while the Jolie had under seat storage and hooks for you shopping bags. There were some other minor differences but in the end I decided to go with the Jolie with a side of hog
After a few hours in paint I had come up with this image "Harley-Davidson Motor Scooter"
I then bought these ingredients for about $30
Spent two days toiling at a friends house
But it was worth it to have a shiny new custom Harley-Davidson hog
And when it's dark it's pretty hard to tell them apart. Other bikies have started nodding back, I'm like a real life bikie now
Here are some more pictures to help you if you would like to do something similar, please feel free to ask questions
