Considering 50% of all the work I have done mechanically has been a bodge for one reason or another... I Hope they are not approaching my custom build standards ;-).
But seriously, I have to agree with philjay, I don't really know what is wrong with a langster/bowery/fillmore if it gets you from A to B. Some of the OTP that are around about £800+, are bloody nice looking bikes, especially the blackjack.
One thing that was positive from building myself however was that I know how to put a bike together, granted it probably not the best build ever, but it works and I will do it better next time.
