Vi ricordate il film del 1991 con Mickey Rourke e Don Johnson "Harley Davidson and Marlboro Man " ? Nel film si vedevano alcune moto, ma di certo non passa inosservata quella guidata da Rourke. E' certo che l'attore prima di recitare nel film ha voluto progettarsi da solo la moto che poi apparirà nelle scene del film. I disegni e i progetti sono stati disegnati da lui stesso su telaio FXR e affidate a tre customizzatori: Johnny McMichael, Rick Riddle e alla Carefree Custom Cycles, poi affidata al montaggio alla Pro Paint and Fabrication per un costo complessivo di 35.000 dollari.
