Points for that part , but old happens by getting that way by itself you don't set out to make something look old unless your a midwest hustler manufacturing " Antique " old looking furniture & stuff to hustle to all the city dwellers who don't know better .

 

I'm not bashing the bike or the builder. There are tons of really cool ideas and craftsmanship to be commended.
I just dislike the amount of effort put in to make the bike "look old".

this is CLASS in my book

 

Then you will love this one:

 

Used to be a guy I saw a lot of around the all big midwest parties and in Sturgis all the time in the 80's who had a ratted out shovel looked a lot like that only a lot dirtier , ever get your hands some old Easyriders or In the Wind rags from back then he was in there all the time .

 

I love the age and worn out look, but the bike itself is "gimmicky" to me ....
This is more like it

 

This is pretty close to what I am currently building for the wife she is a bit prissy but she loves to ride (drive) she even has her twin engine pilots cert or whatever the hell they call it.



And she is even a decent shooting partner. This is probably a 5 hours she almost cut her thumb off and had 15 stitches put in she still want to go shooting. She hates this pict says she looks horrible after bein in the ER all night lol... Wimminz...
