The more I look at your bike the more I want to put that SS fairing on my cafe project.

Those are some sweet pics there.

there were some really beautiful bikes in that show, as you can see in the photos. there were details that are hard to see in the pictures. check out the blue-tanked BSA with the crazy foot linkage.

i bet you'd never pick best in show out of the pictures. someone had to tell me where it was to even remember it was there..
