Never likely to "catch on" to the masses or hipsters.  Their builds prices create an exclusive ownership club.

They definitely will serve as inspiration for me in the future. My current build is more vintage parts, but the one on deck next will be a '76F, with updates as though it was an early 80's superbike machine.

The exhaust work from them and Moriwaki is amazing.
