The custom vision

[Kenny]

OK Tiger,
     This bike would look great in your fold -a few Tiger stripes &...
             Kenny in Grand Forks ND on the Red'n'White  Vision, all is well even found a lot of sunshine. I left on Saturday morning from Trenton and my 1st o/n was in Marquette Michigan.
              Gotta go and get the monkeybutt powder on the right spots.
                                 Cheers Ken S.

I really like the additional black, it really stands out and adds some nice contrast to the tank.  How much will you be asking for it?

[chimera]

I'm not really sure what it's worth. Visions seem to range a fare bit. Custom work doesn't typically add value. I was thinking of starting out at $2000 and going from there.

[YellowJacket!]

Chimera, your "Other Bike" is insane.....absolutely incredible work!  ;D

Its worth that price at least, i'll tell ya that much :D

[Lucky]

I got offered $1600 the other day for Cafe' Vision (probably not going to take it, i'm having too much fun on it)  if i had the money, i'd ask at least $2500 -$3k for yours.  have you looked at Craigslist lately?  some of the crap they're getting (asking anyway) a grand for...

Tasty.  At first glance, I thought it was a buell.  I like the look.

[glennw]

SWEET!    :o

If I had your gas tank and you had a feather up you butt, we would both be tickled pink. I hope one of our visionaries takes you up on the offer to use the moulds. I'd hate to See them get lost, to us!

[chimera]

Haha,yes my other bike is insane. Although my next project will make it look very tame.
I still have some carb work to do. I balanced them with my Air flow meter (not easy), but the idle won't stay steady.
I think $2000 for A bike nobody's ever heard of, is the best I can ask. The tank molds will probably just go with the bike. I may end up selling it after I move to Seattle.

[Rick G]

How about if several Visionaries get together and make an offer on the moulds? 

[vadasz1]

If the Visionaries interested in the mould, would make a donation to this site would that help in keeping it here?  Say $10 each member? ::)

[82dasvision]

I'd go for that!  Would that mean that we all could use it and pass it on?  Given the time, I'd be willing to lay up a few of them.

[chimera]

Keep in mind that I only have the top molds. I screwed up the bottom one when I removed it. I failed to remove the undercoat before I layed the glass down. That's not really a problem as the bottom side is the less important one, and doesn't have to look pretty. If you do a careful job trimming the tank halves, they should fit together tight enough to be bonded together. That would preclude the need to glass them together. Which would mean less finish time.

Necro-Bump this thread demands attention.

There's probably still a huge demand for that exhaust system, and the gas tank. Anyone know what happened to chimera, or the bike?

[funkamongus]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

[unitivegreybird]

mega-necro bump.

any existing information on this exhaust? whatever happened to chimera and this bike?

[pullshocks]

did you try sending him a PM?  If he still has the same e-mail address, he would get a notice.

[artbone]

That really gives me some ideas for my IOM bike. I love the tank and seat. Also the tires. I was thinking of making some "cheeks" to add to the stock tank. Just bump them out of steel sheet and weld them on.

It's really a nice piece of work and I'm envious. Wonder would he be interested in a trade for my bike?

Ive been told that our tanks are too thin to weld. (I don't weld)
