ok, i feel like a total heel crapping all over the french; just because it's easy n stuff.

i know it's off topic but in order to make up for it below is one of the reasons i like france so much.

This is not inspirational.  I hope that's not you in this picture boxnife.

Please tell me you're kidding. He's obviously riding the piss out of this bike and having the time of his life. I don't want to blow your wigs off, but the eggheads at Honda actually built these bikes to ride. A collection of sandcasts or Shelby's or Yenko's is like a collection of wild horses. Sad.

I guess the bike was nice, but let's not church it up with all the "unique perspective" talk.  You just built a cool bike.  That's all.   Nice sweater there Sherlock Homo.

not crazy about the pipes on the first one but the idea of using a nearly 100 year old engine (design) in a modern race bike is pretty ballzy.

love love love the monocque in the second picture. engine? ossa?
