It can be daunting at times...a lot of baggies full of hardware that you hope you remember how to reassemble...this bike has been in boxes on a shelf for 3yrs...tore it apart and then life got real busy...I'm reassembling this at home now to dis-associate the bike with work, but the powder coating still has to be done at the shop. Hardest thing really is not getting in a rush...I'm eager to get it done but know I'll obsess over any half-assed detail if I don't get it done proper the first go.

You have some serious talent. The bikes are not even recognizable. Nice work.

Pretty cool looking. I’ve always like the cafe style.

After four years of tinkering with this build in my scarce spare time, she's finally complete. Everything you see is powder coat - the wheels, exhaust, tins, motor, frame, forks...all of it.
