Being 7'1 means that not only clothes, shoes and house furniture must come in custom-made sizes, but motorcycles, too. And that's how basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal went over to Orange County Choppers and asked for a custom bike to fit his stature... and his arthritic hips.
OCC plans to build one of the biggest machines they ever did, rumored to be 14 feet long (4.3 m), meaning 4 feet (1.2 m) longer than other custom, but in this regard - standard bikes.

Shaq is also a big motorcycle fan, just like fellow-basketball player Michael Jordan, who also owns a moto racing team and is rumored to plan a MotoGP entry.

The bike is currently under construction, and you can see it being built on CMT's “Orange County Choppers” show. There's still no word on the design of Shaq's new bike.
