Wow, I mean like WOW. It all came together perfectly. Lovin all the rivets. That thing is an awesome nod to 40's-50's space age sci fi. Makes me want of watching Flash Gordon or MST3K on netflix.

 

[menzorro]

Love the SciFi look. You got to wear a space helment when you ride it. :lol:
First class build.

What can be said that hasn't been said already? You have tremendous vision, artistry, craftsmanship and imagination poured into this bike. Yet, I feel it still has a "RAT" quality to it. I love it!
