Allstate Unveiled A New Custom Motorcycle, a collaboration between Arlen Ness, Inc. and Rick Fairless. The custom Allstate Victory Gunner bike is this year’s grand prize for the sixth annual Allstate Motorcycle Sweepstakes. The bike features Ness-signature parts and a custom paint job by Fairless. Notable features also include Ness billet grips, pegs and side covers, Ness-modified modular handlebars and Fairless custom motor cages. Cory Ness is the brainchild behind the custom-built bike. The bike will made its debut at the Allstate Rider Protection Zone, located at Daytona Speedway. Riders in attendance have the opportunity to see the one-of-a-kind bike in person, enter the sweepstakes for a chance to win the motorcycle, and view some of the other custom bikes Allstate is showcasing.

Disturbing optical ride, but kinda cool.
I wish these guys and their insurance company corporate masters would stop ruining Victory bikes.
Brainchild??
Nice sweatshirt on Rick
Op art!
Very good idea, bad realisation.
Ugly bike but great sweatshirt…I’ll take one of those.
Fugly!
The sportbike crowd had been drawing design using Sharpies on white “crash replacement” plastics for years. Doesn’t look good on a cruiser, it’s more visually distracting than Rick’s sweatshirt. Which is awesome, by the way!
The bike is ok (Ness). The paint job is wrong (Fairless)
That’s not a sweatshirt, it’s a life uniform
Two great builders. Two great guys, Two great friends.
Hey ya’ll, thanks for all your comments & I’m glad some of you dig my shirt. I was gonna paint this bike solid black, but all of ya’ll used so much black on your bikes, that the paint store was sold out, so I had to improvise! Maybe on the next bike I’ll go nuts & paint it RED! RF
It’s kinda sad you guys are all getting so old and crabby… I like this crazy cruiser. It’s got aesthetic style, imagination, balance, and I’ll bet it it gets up and goes! Ness parts are top of the line equipment, and since the family has partnered with Victory, they’ve built some incredible bikes. Both Cory and Rick are two of the best builders on the planet, in my opinion.
The Allstate custom bike has become a traditional build for bike week. Bunches of builders have built and displayed bikes for the company. I’m sure they make some dough for doing it, and hello…? I think that’s how they make their living. Of course, I agree, it’s hard for this bike to compete with Rick’s shirt!
The shirt and bike both look better after a few beers. When two of the best get together and build a bike they are not to be critiqued no matter what the result. With that much talent they could never make a mistake. Everyone knows the red bikes are faster. ..Z
Im pretty convinced Ricky is colorblind….
Hell yeah! Here’s how to tell if your custom effort sucks: nobody hates it.
UGLY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I saw this bike in person at Daytona and I think it is awesome. My hat’s off to Cory and Rick for a fine job making a custom bike that some lucky person will be riding soon. P.S., I am registered and have my fingers crossed.
Ok, so it’s not the best paint job I’ve ever seen
but I do like the looks of the dress-up & the performance parts
But who am I to say ??
All i know is both Rick 7 Cory have been at this for a while now.
I’d take a bike designed/built by either one of them,
much less one that they both kicked in on
I like it!
