Chris Bywater and Bryan Koekler were able to attend.  After working on his metal fab skills, Brian took his party game to a new level -- the Cristian Sosa level.   

Brian managed to rally and meet up with us in the VIP speakeasy after the show closed.

Some interesting bikes. I would love a shot of that twin (KZ400?) with the bent wood fairing with the steering at full lock. It sure looks like the fairing would foul against the head.

It is a cb350 made by Monnom Customs. He is a full time furniture builder which explains the woodwork. Great guy. Lots of pics of it on his Instagram or if you search his shop name 👍🏼
If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical problem... If it's an electrical problem, it's Cal's problem.

There's definitely some clearance between the fearing and the engine.  https://www.instagram.com/p/BejFd8Jn3Oq/?taken-by=monnomcustoms

Great shots.   I drove out from Texas to deliver that lil red 360 Honda race bike to Steve Cabellero.  It will be at Handbuilt as well.  My buddy David built it for him.
Yep, I'm the kid that figured out how to put things back together...eventually.

That was an outstanding build.  Nothing but kick-ass.  I hope he has fun taking it to Willow Springs.
