The quality of the Parts and Workmanship looks "Top Shelf" ! The Owner sounds like a Top Shelf Citizen as well, a Class Act for sure! I am sure He has given the Boyz from SR 7, plenty to talk about and duplicate! This Bike is not my kind of Ride , but the Genuine Design and look of the Bike is Top Shelf.

I was so impressed with the quality of his work that I have made it a point to search for his display every time I go to photograph the events in Daytona. I can't say that I always like the aesthetics of the bikes that he builds (this Sporty is definitely not my style but not all clients care for my style either) but I can appreciate that he always produces a quality product. He has shown himself to be a visionary ahead of the curve more often than not and does not let the preconceived notions of others (with the possible exception of paying clients) obviate his personal view. The motto of his shop is, "In cubic Inches we trust." Can't argue with that! Beyond his mechanical and technologic accomplishments in rolling art, Alan has a heart of gold. He built and donated the Jessica Lunsford trike (trikes are one of his specialties) to help raise money and awareness of the kidnapping, rape, and murder of 9 year old Jessica Lunsford back in February, 2005. The positive end result of all involved was the passage of the Jessica Lunsford Act, first in Florida and now in over 30 states, which provides for increased prison sentences for some convicted sex offenders, tighter restrictions on sex offenders such as required electronic tracking devices, and more stringent tracking of sex offenders by law enforcement. Kudos to Alan and others like him that rise above the mediocrity to a higher standard than self and actually "serve" others for a common benefit. Thankfully many in the biker community are like Alan, at least in spirit. After all, not all of us can donate an $80k motorcycle no matter what our values are. For those interested in the case itself, John Couey, a 47 year old man and previously convicted sex offender, was arrested and he confessed to the charges in March, 2005 but the case still went to trial. March 7, 2007 he was found guilty — March 14, 2007 the jury recommended the death penalty — August 24, 2007 he was sentenced to the death penalty with 3 consecutive life sentences. He is currently awaiting appeal. In full disclosure, there are some accusations of misappropriation of funds against the Jessica Marie Lunsford Foundation, Inc. to which Alan donated the bike. The accusations are being levied primarily upon Jessica's father, Mark, who is the foundation president but also against other past directors and staff members of the foundation.
