Looks like a bunch of parts that don'tbelong together IMO...the swingarm looks like alength of gas pipe from Home Depot.

OK, so I'm ignorant, but other than the stock brake rotors, whichseems a little dumb considering whoever built it spent so much money on everything else.
I don't see anything that's oviously "missmatched", please enlighten me.

It looks like they just bolted a bunch of cool, expensive parts togeather without thinking about the end product. The bike just doesn't flow well, if that makes any sense.

It does, I was looking for details and not the overall "theme". Put that way I can see your point.
I just wish the pics were bigger/better, there a bit too small for my bad eyesight to get a really good overall look at it.
All of the differentpaint and powdercoat colors don't seem quite "right" somehow.
Everything is Nightrain black but then there is that garish changable color on the fenders and tank that doesn't "belong" if you know what I mean. A flat denim paint color would have "fit" better.
That kind/style of paintwould look/work better on a something like a Custom that has more shiney paint, polished aluminum, andchrome parts on it tocompliment it.

I agree.....a bit of overkill with the paint .....just not a train with all that color in my book....and the springer front end...???...why not just throw some mods on a springer......no idea what they want for this but I would rather start from scratch myself.....hey, any snow up there in Rochester big C????
