    Golly gee, do all of your inferiors here even understand what is progressing with your brilliance? Please, please, we're not worthy of your presence Mr Norcal

    You could have just sent those mystery members a PM then you could have crawled back in your loooooonely ego filled cave where you are the almighty king of your world.

    Sorry guys, but I am so over this "I'm better than all of you" clown. Thought he left years ago. Too bad.

    In defense of Princess Norcalboy who may be the love child of one or more of the Teutuls, he does spend some serious pesos on farkles. That pic of a piston is absolutely orgasmic.

    All the thousands of dudes who have been building bikes for the last 100 years or so should pay homage to her royal highness for gracing us with her presence.

    Every one of those pics is bike prOn. The rest of you pussies can whine all you like but the man builds some of the best shit you're likely to see short of a racetrack. The reason? He researches and isn't afraid to find and cultivate the best people he can find. You think these people allow idiots to hang around? ( He has the time and he finds the money. He's doesn't think he's " better than you" , he's just passionate. If you had the same circumstances you might be the same way.

    I don't give a fuck about defending how he appears to some of you on this forum because I've hung out with him and I got zero complaints, and he doesn't need me to defend him. He's a good bro and does very very nice work. If he's a bit abrasive grow up and get over it. He's had my back more than once and while he may be difficult at times, he knows his shit and is a good guy.

    Ask someone that has bought one of his bikes.

    Lots of people build bikes. They do it because they love it and it fills a need for them

    Is he breaking new ground ala Eric Buell or something? Maybe not, but shit guys I like what he does who knows maybe one day he will.

    Ghost, your attitude seems inconsistent with the tolerance i expect to find on an "insider" forum like this. Norcal may be blatantly one-upping the rest of us, often does, but so be it. It's his bike, his money, his imagination, and his engineering prowess. Let him exceed merely average expectations !!!!!

    So what are we looking at here? I see some interesting coatings in the combustion chamber and on top of the piston crown. Obviously a big bore short stroke four stroke with an adjustable cam gear. Square steel tube frame with an alloy swing arm and super nice alloy (Magnesium?) rim. Everything is spotless and tidy looking but where are ya going? Is Reg on the money? Please continue.

    Damn, The Princess is the only girly here that builds bikes? Wow, I guess the other dudes here are pussies too.

    Spending money on motorcycles is real easy. Just take out your wallet (or purse) and shell out the pesos.

    Case in point is Eric Buell's latest that comes in at (so far) 18K+. ...and you can see pix of it.

    Back in the day, which for some is yesterday.. Two guys from down or up here, depending on where ya live, took a 450 Honda single, massaged the shit out it, shoehorned it into Honda 125 GP frame and other gofarkles

    and were really hard to beat. So hard that nobody did.

    Yeah...and ya can't eat trophies..

    If I gave you money Long, would you stop trying to screw non living objects. I hate to think of what your bikes would be saying if they could speak!
