Re: RETRO-RATTO(UPDATE 6-20)

man i hate telling builders what i think looks good but on this one i gotta so dont mind me. i really liked it with the occ seat, it gave it a rat fink style dimension. also i agree not digging the white tank as much as black if you want to change the color of the tank maybe try something a bit darker like a dark blue or red. again dont take what i say with a grain of salt just like the bike a lot
