Rickshaw
His model has an inline 6-cylinder for propulsion, hence the name, although I'll admit I don't get why he spells it that way.

The name? Well Monty and Borgis got it.I like to play with spelling.At first,when Rob asked. I thought It may have been offensive.So I did a google on it and found out ,oddly enough there is a shop in PA called Sikxgun choppers,Kinda fitting now,and yes it's a ricksha frame.Not to sure about the body yet ,and I have to lower the front end too.oh yea, thank you for the comments. keep 'em coming

I'll be honest, wasn't a fan of it when I first took a look. I thought I'd give it a second look and I'm lovin the new body choice, made one hell of a difference. The only I might change would be the exhaust going under the frame, I think it would look cooler shooting over the frame rail pointing downward. Looks great tho, keep it up.
