Awesome pics of an awesome bike.

There are a few that would be worthy of blowing up and framing.

stunning bike... looking into buying a thrux now and i would not hesitate to copy your bike part for part... (hopefully you see that as flattery).

Beautiful and very inspiring.

(i'm sure its been asked but what kind of tank is that?)

Great article in todays MCN Rob. So what's the score with the registration? Is it a cherished transfer and, ahem, naughty plate?

The registration was transferred from a late 1950's Vespa Scooter, bought on retention off Ebay.
