Not sure how I feel about the front cylinder being black and the rear white... But to each his own.... there is a lot of fing work on that one.

the cylinders are 2 diff colors?  they look all white to me!  and man i love the way a Duc motor looks with the timing belt exposed!  that is one helluva bike.  not exactly my taste, but very well done!  the theme is carried out with all the little details which are unreal!  good addition to the thread!!!

I like this one. Makes me want to build one out of a 500twin or 500F. Looks like its fun to ride. I'd get rid off the shinny stuff though.





Ohh and kmoll70, very nice bike. Love the tank and seat  ;). Send us some pics. I'm in the process of updating our site. Would love to add it to our customer bike pics. Good Luck!

Headlight is a Carpy T-Bar lamp. Modified stock cb750 housing. And BCR headlight ears

Here is a close up shot of the motor




Here is one of the bare frame and engine after powder coat





I mentioned it before...I know, but it begs to be mentioned again...


This bike TRULY what it's all about as far as I'm concerned.  This CB is totally 100% bada$$!

Dont know if this was posted already, but thought i'd share it.

JVB moto scrambler Duc monster platform. Looks like its really fun to ride on or off-road.






Brapp braap! Makes me want to get a Duc monster and rip through the trails. Of course with a MX helmet  :)
