    My inside of my lower lip is salivating. GODAM!!!! So F-ing cool.

    The fact that the tube matches the one lighter stripe saves it.

    Thanks Capn'

    One of my best/favorite resto's so far I think

    I've spent ALOT of time just staring at this bike now that its done.

    I debated the colour scheme for a long time (Blue & white, Black and Red, or Skoal Bandit Green). I LOVE the colour and its even more fitting that its got a Bandit 1200cc engine hidden in there now.

    So, that makes two bikes I have to drive all the way to Canada to pick up! I agree with Capt, the green tube stays since it ties in the brighter green on the bodywork.

    he knows his stuff [mostly] but wants to be a tv star with his own show, quite iself-indulgently. seems like he never drinks a beer, geeze god, whatsa shop for up north there ???

    only a few ppl are able to resist the desire for fame and stardom even if nobody watches their channel, and its always tempting if you have money to show.

    on the other hand, hes found his target audience here and on YT, others.

    :usa:

    ***someday i may put a video together entitled "Twenty four hours in the day of a happy domesticated 5yo american black-tail prairie dog (Cynomys ludovivianus) residing in NY state". probably a kids show since no one else would watch, my right ?
