Well, 1 spectator is better than 0 for an attention like me ;)
I did designed and made all the sheet metal, and a lot of the machined parts (handles, breaks, and a lot of small stuff). I also did the design for the paint according to my buddies wishes, and I made the frame after his measurments. Total build cost: too much. Total experience cost: invaluable
Enjoy!

do you have any in-progress photos? i'd like to see the process of this. i had a friend make a (pedal) chopper with a gas tank in the shape of a voluptuous woman (he used bondo, i believe.)

anyhow, more photos would make it easier to discuss. i don't really know a whole lot about motorcycles, tho.

Yeah bro hopefully you could post up some in-progress shots. There's always a bunch of great tools guys working on this sort of stuff use. Always make me want to give it at try... until I realize that I'd end up building a machine that wouldn't be street legal ever. :P

Stuff like this can only broaden our perspective, but true, some making of shots would be nice.

Thanx for sharing
