WPT Sponsors Charity Auction

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – (PRESS RELEASE) -- The number one selling artist in the world, Michael Godard together with world famous bike building phenomenon Count's Kustoms have embarked on a one-of-a-kind bike build to be auctioned on eBay to benefit the Sharon Osbourne Colon Cancer Program at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. This unique auction runs on eBay from June 13th to June 20th, with the bike being unveiled for the first time to the public at eBay Live! in Las Vegas, June 13th, 2006.

With its 18" ape hanger handle bars, hand tooled leather saddle, titanium wheels and engine accents, with original artwork by Michael Godard, this unique Count's Kustoms hand-made chopper is an old school bike with a new school twist. "We built an extremely cool chopper for this auction," says Danny Koker, world-renowned bike builder. "This custom chopper exceeds expectations delivering creativity, innovation and die-hard quality, not to mention incredible handling and ride-ability. This chopper's got a unique flavor to it, enhanced by Godard's ability to evoke drama and emotion with every paint stroke. Whoever walks away with this bike is going to be thrilled, because it's a rock star machine, but more importantly, because they're helping somebody else," concludes Danny.
