Yeah, I was wondering whether they were air shocks.

I like the idea of a spin on oil filter, but that one looks like it could drag in a corner and cause catastrophic engine failure. Shocked

I guess first post.
It is cool but is awful at the same time.
Like the Vincent chopper I saw.
Wonderful machining, great details
But .... did they have to do it to a Vincent Sad

The Cops have got to love that license plate placement ,if we can't read it from the side , they sure can't read it from the rear!

I had the same thought about the plate. Turns out the it is retractable. There's a motor that can (slowly and loudly,  there's video if you follow the link) make it stick out the side or retract back in to the position in the photos . I just hope he had fun building it. I'd wager he did!

Funny thing is, if the builder had not painted it up like a daycare center and put any sort of real seat on it, I bet the comments would be a lot different.  I bet we would be spending more time looking for all the cool little ideas they incorporated.

Personally, I like his rear suspension/swingarm modification. I think I've seen something similar by one of the builders on this forum.

Right on Gary!  (And it still looks ridiculous! ha ha)

But that other build looked great.  Can't seem to find it though.

Hmmmm . . . . .
Looks strange, costs a lot of money, serves no useful purpose . . . .
Oh yeah! It's ART!
