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.

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
