This bike started life as a 1981 Heritage Special with about 13,000 miles. It’s probably logged about 350 miles since being finished and had run perfectly everytime. It has also been seen at The Smokeout 2006 in NC. It hasn’t been out much since completion, but it has ridden in numerous charity rides and been shown and placed (2nd) at the 2007 International Motorcycle show in Maryland.The bike that beat it was brand new and had two racing stripes painted on, so what does that tell you about shows? You may have seen the Fong Bros at the same show with different bikes in 2008 – they were the guys with the fireplace. This bike has always been a dependable ride. People will not stop bugging you about it while you ride. This bike was built by the “internationally recognized”, legendary FONG BROS out of Baltimore, Maryland (See “The Horse Backstreet Choppers” May/June 2008 issue for more on the Fong Bros), and modeled slightly after the WCC Coors Dominator. There is a huge cult following with these bikes because of their bulletproof reputation and availability of parts. What you’re looking at is a hardcore one of a kind, handbuilt Yamaha xs650.
