i swear i'm not posting this first one because i think it's beautiful, or because i want to build one. i just think the guy showed an individualism and gumption to do it. i read he undertook the project after a family tragedy as a sort of therapy.

the second one i think is a unique take on a custom honda build.

Do you have any links for the tad-pol trike? although I'm not into is aesthetically, I am interested in building a tad-pol trike in the future.

PEOPLE, THIS IS THE INSPIRATION GALLERY AND THERE HAS BEEN FAR TOO MUCH TYPING, AND NOT ENOUGH PICTURES!!!!!!!

Now that that's out of the way...

Beveltech Ducati Desmo:

"The engine on this latest BevelTech creation is from a 900SS: it’s been rebuilt with Cosworth pistons, polished rods, ported heads and magnesium valve covers. It sits in an 860 GT frame that’s also been heavily revised, again using belt-drive SS parts. The bodywork is carbon fiber, the magnesium race wheels are from Marvic, and the exhaust runs inside the frame rails for protection."

Is this a real bike Bill?

Or some model? I'm being led astray by my monitor!!!

A home made engine is definitely different.

When I was really young, I was at the hospital.. In them days kids could not go inside the wards.

So I was waiting outside and there was this bike.. BIG RED Bike..

.. and it said on it somewhere N-O-R-T-O-N.. and I kept walking around it and looking at it for a loooonnngggg time..

Up to that point in my like, I had never seen ANYTHING so cool..
