Billy Lane’s Fat Ford Chop (Continued)

 


I have had an overwhelming response to this bike everywhere I take it.It will be in Mike Lichter’s Journey Museum during Sturgis.I want to ride it out there this time completed (last year it was in flat black primer),but that’s not going to happen.

Everything I build is a sounding board for ideas for new products andstyles. This bike was no exception. Business has been incredible, and thatPan is part of the reason. If nothing else, it makes people ask who we are andwhat else we are doing. I’m trying to control growth right now, which isdifficult. Jesse talked about that in his Discovery Channel show. It’seasy for things to get out of control. The goal is to do well enoughfinancially through the parts that we make and sell so that we can controlthe number of bikes we build and keep each one unique andinnovative — something you see very little of, considering how saturated thisindustry has become.

 
Luckily we are still relatively unknown, or at leastovershadowed by the bigger names in motorcycles. I think that allows usthe creativity we need to excel without having to bow down to the pressures ofthe industry. People come in all the time and say they didn’t know weexisted, but the bikes outside caused them to come in.
