fartypants huh? I'll steer clear of you.  ;D Nice bike transformation.

In case you change your mind I think I have one of those beauty king/queen jobs hiding in the deep recesses. I thought I might make a shop couch out of it.

Nicely done.  You should check out Tweakin's bike of the month GT, even though his bike is more of a restomod.
