Form follows function, not the other way around.

Can't say I'm with you on some "post-apocalyptic" build. Are you an experienced motorcycle rider? What are you going to do with this bike? Ride it or just look at it?

Good question - poser or rider? :laugh: Here's a link to images of some "post-apocalyptic" motorcycles. To each his own, but I don't see any that I would want to ride further than the recycle yard. :evil: Ed

I think its a great idea. Should be easier on the pocket than a full on resto as well. Some nice pictures in the link,Ed. Go for it,and when its done, pose and/or ride as much as you want.Its your bike. Good luck and post some pictures.

More inspiration and ideas can be found on this site (whatever your tastes)

Seems like your comments were a bit whacky, but that's ok. Even though I stated "to each his own" I guess I hurt your feelings so you felt you needed to strike out at me. I didn't know you were so sensitive. I won't comment on your postings again. Ed
