2017 k9

[bigkelk9]

So for those of you who went to Kansas and saw this bike in person, the art work was beyond impressive and was a custom build for a client. Not my cup of tea of coarse, but this air brush work is just amazing. Idk what happened as to why it's for sale, but figured I'd share

That's me.. I'm a black n chrome kind of guy.. but this air brush job is amazing.. pure talent.. lol

Now that is a hunk of wall art.

$40,000 for wall art? Not my wall. I appreciate the talent but not for me. I wish the new BDM all the luck in the world but to me the new K9 looks too much like the old K9 that you cam buy for $25,000 less.

what a shame

And you make fun of classic hot rod flames????? No comment on this paint job from me

It was someone's design originally, they wanted this look. Not something BigDog decided to do.

Unfortunately whoever wanted it apparently no longer wants it. That's the problem with wild custom paint jobs. One person's gold is anothers...well you know

That scheme took a talented hand for sure. Like Kel said, not for me, but no denying the skill that put it on metal.

Yep.. and unfortunately some of these knuckle heads didnt read this on where it was a custom build.. im sure no one really cares for the paint, but u have to be able to appreciate that talent!!

Anyone who has even the smallest bit of talent can do flames.. flames are a basic starting point of art as to where this is.. well very very talented.. c'mon man. Get on board here buddy!! Lol

I respectfully disagree kel! My bike has flames and I don't believe that they are as "Basic" as a "black" bike Kel, again this is your opinion and I respect that, you should do the same when it comes to something being basic or easy to do, that's not what it's about, right? If someone likes it then so be it, I like flames if they are done right, I like them a lot better than a plain one color bike, that's why I don't have a solid color bike, you like soild colors, or black and that's ok too.

Lol.. I was talking about the talent to do the art.. not the look of flames and whatnot.. but I getcha bro.. for sure!

just because a paintjob can be done, doesn't mean it should be done.

I have seen this bike in person. It was painted by Airbrush Ed. When we were at Matt's shop in June, this is the bike the they were putting together on the rack. It looks bad ass in person.

Absolutely, and when you make something your own you can't expect it to be appealing to others unless it is done in good taste

that would be like you getting your hellcat painted like a rubik's cube.

What a novel idea, sounds good to me, although even as fast as that thing is he still couldn't solve the riddle I bet

Nothing to solve if I place my colors wisely

I have to say I truly appreciate the work that went into the paint. The color composition, aged look, the detail in the rivets, rust and all is just incredible. I think even if the overall theme isn't what some would like, it is still difficult to not marvel at the work and talent that went into producing the paint job.
