Jimmy Dell Womack, of JD’s Custom Cycles in Winter Springs, Florida, built this little green metal flake beauty, as well as taking care of all of the engine upgrade work. When I caught up with Mind Bender’s owner, Troy Banks, he was just putting the bike through its paces for the first time on its inaugural shake down run, during this year’s Daytona Biketoberfest. I guess that he was enjoying himself as he wore a bolt on smile. I wasn’t the only one to be smitten by this cool ride, Troy entered it into a few custom shows while he spent time at the World’s Most Famous Beach, gleaning 1st Place Sportster at the hotly contested Willies Tropical Tattoo Custom Bike Show, and Runner Up, Best of Show at the Boardwalk.
