Every time I make fun of you, you put up a picture a day later of something that looks really good, so I'm going to bite my tongue at this point aside from saying that in my mind's eye that seat looks hilarious.

I look forward to - once again - eating my words.
 
Lol pressure is on! She's a roller now so now I have a better idea on what needs to be done to the rear cowl!

Gotta say.. I wasn't sure if I was going to be onboard for this, but I have changed my tune. Those pipe are so sweet.

Do you offer apprenticeships? Haha
I'm gonna put this out there and say in my opinion this is the best work I've seen, I've always loved brat-style but this style of bike just took the lead. I'm doing a motorcycle design studio next semester and there is a lot of inspiration here, just the process you use to distinguish whether or not you like the design/ aesthetic. I don't go back to uni for another 5 weeks but I'll be sure to show you what I come up with. We'll be doing a lot of digital modeling using solid work and cad. I'll keep ya posted. Can't wait to see the finished product here.
 
Thank you for the kind words man! I really appreciate it ;) I've always been a fan of Japanese style and builders from the far east. Love the style that is coming out of Bratstyle,An-bu,gravel crew and luck mc just to name a few. My builds are heavily inspired by these guys. Anyways I Look forward to see what you come up with! I wish I can do some digital modeling and cad. That sounds awesome!
