    Just getting started... want to build a Klunker

    Just saw some of the cool stuff you are building... that Kos Kruiser replica is SICK! One question, Why didn't you replicate Vector bars? I had those on my Kos.... so good! CSB I kept the Kos Kruiser deep into my 30's. I just never rode it and never thought to refurb it. Was in love...
