Travail personnel, destiné à compléter la panoplie qui comprenait entre autres une moto réalisée dans le même style : Sioux Lakota

Les Lakotas vivent dans le Dakota du Nord et le Dakota du Sud (États-Unis) et aussi au Canada. Les sept branches lakotas sont : Brûlés, Oglalas, Sans-Arcs, Hunkpapas, Miniconjous, Sihasapas (Pieds-Noirs/Blackfeet, à ne pas confondre avec l'homonyme peuple algonquien des Pieds-Noirs/Blackfoot) et Two Kettles1.

En décembre 2007, une délégation conduite par Russell Means et disant représenter les Lakotas a déclaré rompre les traités qui les lient aux États-Unis, proclamant ainsi leur indépendance (voir République Lakota), et annonçant qu'ils allaient produire leurs propres passeports et permis de conduire. Près de la moitié du territoire de l'État sécessionniste se situe dans le Dakota du Sud.

Personal work, intended to complete the panoply which included a motorbike made in the same style: Sioux Lakota.

The Lakota live in North and South Dakota (USA) and also in Canada. The seven Lakota branches are : Burn, Oglalas, Sans-Arcs, Hunkpapas, Miniconjous, Sihasapas (Blackfoot/Blackfeet, not to be confused with the homonymous Algonquian Blackfoot/Blackfoot people) and Two Kettles1.

In December 2007, a delegation led by Russell Means and claiming to represent the Lakota declared a breach of the treaties that bind them to the United States, proclaiming their independence (see Lakota Republic), and announcing that they would produce their own passports and driving licences. Almost half of the territory of the breakaway state is in South Dakota.
