I'm not usually a big fan of gold, but that tank looks awesome. The gold leaf and the red are a great combo. I like the gas cap too.
That's the weird part...neither am I! I dunno though, it just kinda popped into my head and stayed there, so I went with it. I think along with all the gold, brass and gloss black over the entire rest of the bike, it's gonna look great. I'm also looking into using brass or copper tubing for my oil and fuel lines to keep with the theme. I'm not sure on the brass just yet though...I've got a little more research to do on that one.
And Certainteed...yeah, it's gettin there, so far it's actually made it out of the box! Right now, it's over at the shop, we're making a Sucker Punch H-Bomb "clone" for the oil tank, it's being fitted for the battery box, the rear fender is being modified a bit, and the 2 up seat bracket that I designed is also something we're messing around with before it goes to get powdered. Alot of the little stuff is what's causing all the hold-ups, but I think by the end it will all be worth it. I'm excited though....it's gonna be a few months, and it sucks that I missed bike week this year, but next year should be awesome riding this thing around.
