    yeah, that was the point.. now thats its "cleaned up" i think it looks like crap.

          i like it, personally id get those trees like cut in half and go with clip on's and a high arched tank. im looking forward to see this one done. and i think putting a knuckle in there would piss off some people.

            One day I want controls that clean. Internal throttle and and that internal twist clutch. Every time I see one of his bikes it kind of fucks with me because it's as if it's not finished since they appear to lack controls. The cleanliness is drool inducing.

                I can't see that thing turning into anything I would like, which makes me all the more interested to see how it comes out. Vision of a bike's potential is definitely not my strong suit. That's why I enjoy watching people with skill turn something I can't imagine into a bad ass ride. Good luck with it!

                  after 4 pages of i do/dont like russ mitchels work

                  this is my inspiration [damn you people take yourselves very seriously]

                  got a 1200 sporty motor lined up that im picking up at the weekend so i might just slot that side of things together over xmas when i get a few hours to kill so its easier to all move about

                      Sumo,
                      Do you know what the make of that frame is? I picked up a project that uses the exact same frame, and I am having a bitch of a time figuring it out...

                            Those trees would make a great canvas for some engraving. Just a thought. May as well use what you have. Cant wait to see more

                                been playing a little on this as well as all the other projects over Xmas

                                3.5 tanks look pretty good I recon don't want it all top heavy, this covers motor and out to width of seat and forks.. primed, got myself an early 5speed 1200 sporty lump for it

                                was actually looking at a fat bob rear fender that's been kicking about the garage for years earlier on today, considering widening that maybe. I'll have look and see what it looks like. 11" fenders are spendy
