South Florida’s Sam Nehme
This spring a new television show will premier on ESPN2. The show, Metric Revolution, will compete with the American Chopper of Discovery Channel fame, featuring Orange County Choppers. The difference here is that the competition must all start with metric bikes or those from metric countries. Typically, those are the Japanese motorcycles.
Among the pack is Sam Nehme. A South Florida boy, Sam has been building bikes for a long time. I believe he has outdone himself (and everyone else) with Nehmesis, his new motorcycle entry for the Metric Revolution. This bike defies reality and is nearly perfect in every measure. The “sit-down” parking mechanism leaves the side stand out of the picture.
It may be a bit extreme, but the 24-karat gold plating on the wheels and other key parts make this a dream bike of kings.Everything in this bike screams the future is here. I’m anxious for my first opportunity to photograph this bike in public.
