Harley Davidson

Hoy les dejo una foto de una linda chopper con un par de chicas mas bonitas todavía. Me gustó mucho la toma y la posición de las chicas sobre la moto.
Lamentablemente el sitio de Cherry Customs no está diponible debido a remodelación así que lo único que pude averiguar sobre la foto es que la moto ha ganado 5 premios: Has won 5 awards, el diseño de Forks hecho por Goldammer. La Chopper fue diseñada y construida por Roger Harris of Cherry Customs, Kelowna BC.

Sobre las linduras que están encima no tengo idea de quienes son ni la marca de las medias de malla que usa la morena recostada. ;-)

Espero que les guste.
