The bike looks absolutely awesome....strangely when I saw the tank and paint I was reminded of the base player of Los Straightjackets and even their music fits!!!!

It handles great. You can do a u-turn on a neighborhood street. Front brake is useless at speed. All long bikes are like that though. No weight in the front.

Looks like FUN! Stretched out hard tails put the power to the ground nicely. With that motor it would be a blast to ride. Nice work.
