Didn't someone already use the gas mask idea? I think I saw something about it in an old Cycle World...

Looks OK untill you get to the front.  That's a gas mask?!  Sorry.  Yuck. Unbelivably stupid.  Should have saved up for a HL.
Dude- your 8 layers are showing!

I always liked the XLCR cafe racer Harley made in 77/78?

This one is nice too........except for the car tires they have on it.

...geezzz, you guys are a tough crowd...other than the gas mask on the front (which I'm sure can be easily removed) it looks like nice work.  Clean lines, good stance, not to mention torque out the wazooo.  I like it, but for 12 Gs?  No, but I've seen some stupid priced old hondas too, so why not....
