I look at Johnnies bike and say to myself.."Yeah, that is what I want mine to be like".  I love that bike!

I love you Christopher... ;D :D ;)

Congrats Johnie!!!  With this win, the people's choice award at that show, and the many more I am sure you will win, you are going to need to use that patio as a trophy room. :) :)

tflstb's little rocket has got my vote.

It looks to me like a little red pit bull, just rarin' to go

After looking at some of the member's bikes done like this, I am leaning toward going the rest of the way with my K3 to cafe it out but I'm not sure where to start, on a good note I just rented the garage next to my house. The bonus of being Canadian is that I have from late Oct till early March to get it ready for the next year.

If ever there was a creator of bastard sons, it is the open road, for she has claimed so many young men yearning for freedom......
