I like it except for the valve cover. I wouldn't do that to my bike, but it looks like a top notch job.

Looks like they did a good job with the paint. A little much for my personal taste, but not too bad. I do like the exhaust though...is that a Remus?

I agree, I don't like the valve cover. Maybe if it were just a couple fins on the cylinder wall. other than that it looks goood.

Limey, it ain't that it lacks facial hair, it's that it lacks BACK HAIR :-D

With that outta the way...



The orange valve covers gotta go. The pixie hat has gotta go (but then I wouldn't like it if Michaelangelo had done it his own self - pixie hats are for pixies). The grey seatcover - I am not crazy about.

What they did with the sculpting on the tank and panels, though, is exactly what I'm thinkin' of when it comes time to repaint.

I give it one and a half thumbs up. An extra quarter of a thumb for shavin' the back hair.
