2000 Harley Davidson Deuce by RSD

2000 Harley Davidson Deuce by RSD

  This 2000 Roland Sands Softail is a unique opportunity to acquire a world class designer bike at about 1/3 of its original build price and without the painful two year wait. The entire bike has been fitted with a Roland Sands Design vintage kit. And when combined with Harley-Davidsons traditional Hardtail look for the Softail frame, it becomes a very convincing tribute to past motorcycles without appearing overtly retro. The rear fender and tank, handlebars ect were sprayed by world-renowned artist MISTER CARTOON in an incredible fade style champagne pearl paint job detailed with hand-painted pinstripes, gold leaf and silver leaf. Once the pin stripping and leafing was done, several coats of clearcoat were added to for a spectacular glossy finish that both preserves the custom colors and provides a slick seam free surface over the stripes. The paint on this bike is so dynamic that a camera lens just can’t capture enough to really do it justice. Mounted next to the 21 inch aluminum wheel is a Performance Machine six piston brake caliper that clamps a huge drilled 13″ brake rotor. On top the color matched handle bars hold Performance Machine hand controls, chrome rear view mirror and chrome Performance Machine hand controls that are connected to the calipers by attractive braided hoses. Behind the front fork, the bikes black frame is bolted together with stainless hardware and houses a detailed Harley Davidson V-twin engine that is decked out in Roland Sands Design chrome pieces. At the bottom of the engine, a beautiful chrome PM open belt drive. At the top of the engine, the Roland Sands Design...

Die Antwoord LOS ANGELES

Die Antwoord LOS ANGELES

About a month ago, the South African Ravin’ Rapper trio Die Antwoord performed at the Nokia Thatre in Los Angeles just prior to playing their new single “I Fink U Freeky” on the Letterman stage in New York and two songs from their new album “Ten$ion”—including “Freeky”—in Los Angeles on the Jimmy Kimmel show. Wow, what a great show! We didn’t know what to expect from the South African Ravin’ Rappers, all in all for being an overly exposed underground electronic music group it was a great performance. If you like the the offensive lyrics on ”I Fink U Freeky” and “Fatty Boom Boom” check out this interview they did with online magazine the Stranger. If you’re unfamiliar, Die Antwoord operate on the principle of “zef,” a philosophy of intentional ignorance and craziness.

Will You Do Me A Kindness?

Will You Do Me A Kindness?

“I don’t want any more bullshit from anyone, and that includes me!” -Jack Rebney Ben Steinbauer’s Winnebago Man takes as its starting point a widely seen viral video of outtakes from a Winnebago promotional video. Winnebago Man (Ben Steinbauer, USA, 2009, 85 minutes) Netflix: This entertaining documentary explores the phenomenon of Jack Rebney, who became an Internet sensation after a grainy, nearly 20-year-old video of him furiously swearing up a storm while filming a Winnebago sales video made the rounds online. Traveling to a mountaintop, filmmaker Ben Steinbauer tracks down Rebney — who’s become known in underground circles as the “Angriest Man in the World” — and tries to discover what makes the loner tick.  Netflix link.  ...
Our Family Loves Pollos Maria

Our Family Loves Pollos Maria

This place is a local’s favorite, been coming here since High School (Class of 97′). The outdoor seating with the fire pits makes for a wonderful ambiance. The food is great and apparently it is very vegetarian friendly. They have a fresh salsa bar fully stocked with all the good stuff. It’s off the beaten path so most tourists end up in the village at some of the other Mexican places, but if you want the best I would head over to Pollos Maria’s! [Show as...
