"Double Cross" by Ron Finch. 113ci S&S - Completed June 2004.
In 2004, the Discovery Channel approached Finch and asked him to join the “Biker Build-off” competition. Biker Build-off is a reality television series created and narrated by Thom Beers. The building of Double Cross appeared on the episode “Jesse Rooke vs. Ron Finch” that aired in 2005. A work of art come to life; Double Cross was the winner. Ron could not have done it alone.
The asymmetrical frame crosses over the motor. The handlebars, exhaust, and many of the rod work accessories also have a cross-over design. The gas and oil tanks are in in the rear fender. With dual throat Weber carbs, custom triple trees and intricate rod work, you might not mind if this bike crosses your path twice.
In April 2005 in Las Vegas, CA, Finch competed with the top builders in the “Biker Build-off Finale.” An expert committee considered the 24 bikes in the Biker Build-off series. They chose Finch for the “Biker Blacksmith” award for extreme metal fabrication.
