Tony Daugherty Warrensburg, Missouri
'00 Honda VLX600
How about a small bike with a big attitude? Tony Daugherty has owned this bike from new and has been working on it on and off ever since. He calls it his Middleweight Putter. Daugherty has customized his VLX with parts from Kuryakyn, Jardine, Scootworks, and Highway Hawk. He also designed and had the flame-patterned rear fender strut custom made. Future plans are forward controls and a brake rod and kickstand in another flame design.

Mike Nesbit St. Thomas Ontario Canada
'06 Honda Shadow Spirit 750
Checking in from the great white north is Mike Nesbit from St. Thomas, Ontario in Canada. He has had his 2006 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 for two years. When he got it, it was a straight stock bike. However, he couldn't resist making it his own. Since then he has added a Billski tailight kit, Hard Krome pipes, K&N filter, Dynajet jet kit, Kuryakyn rear signals, grips, pegs, mirrors, and deep dish bezels on the front signals and Chenzoh riser extensions just to name a few. She's Nesbit's pride and joy and he enjoys riding her all over southwestern Ontario.
