Star Motorcycle's Bob Starr was on hand to discuss the future path of the brand and to unveil some new creations like this one. "Nehmesis," a $250,000 award-winning Star Motorcycle custom cruiser designed and built by Broward Motorsports/BMS Choppers' Owner Sam Nehme. This bike will be on display for the remainder of the series.
Nehmesis received first place in the Custom Radical category at the 2007 Biketoberfest Rats Hole competition in Daytona Beach. This was the first time ever a metric (Japanese) bike beat out the American bikes to win this coveted award. The bike has to be seen to be believed, it is full of firsts – no kickstand; full air suspension with compressors that raise the bike to a riding level; largest rear motorcycle tire ever – 360 mm; gold and chrome plating; no support beams on front or rear tires; and the list goes on. Nehmesis was built in six months as part of the Metric Revolution Motorcycle Build Off set to air on ESPN2 in April 2008.
