Excellent.  Shoreditch coffee shops will stop in their tracks :)

If I was nitpicking I'd say the headlight/clocks combo is going to be awkward because of the shape.  I'd be inclined to get a shorter headlight and separate clocks.

Still looks fantastic and I has the jealous.....

Suits you sir.

Taking a leaf out Marquez's book with the numbering?
Yep. Fuck, I'm old enough to be his dad.  :shocked:

Cheers, DW. Yeah, that bit's tricky but I like how it tidies up the handlebars and it's not commonplace. If I can tighten up the gaps, getting the lens closer to the fork, then it'll look better-proportioned.

Great work!!

That big searchlight of a headlamp has actually grown on me.

Nice one Saint Ray. I too prefer the black brackets for the headlight. I would also prefer a shallower headlight, and the front mudguard to be closer to the tyre. But if we all liked the same things it would be a boring world. Hope to see it in the metal in April.  :moto: :moto:

Could the shop that built it not modify the headlamp brackets?  Looks to me like you'd only need to shorten the arms by an inch or so?

Lowering the headlight might give enough room to tuck it in nicely. There's a bit of a gap there already. But then the ignition barrel might obscure the speedo. I'll have a look at that with them on Saturday although I could just do that myself. But to be honest, I'm just desperate to ride the bloody thing!

Really cool and your very own one off.
Love it

You can make alterations on the way...that's for winter...for now get the beast back and ride.

Can we have a video to hear it running too please?

I like it and I like the way you have been very original and above all patient (and skinted yourself) along the way, a truely proper bike build.


Raydial

Cheers, folks!

I think I can do that for ya, Coxy.  :afro:

I like this angle for showing the clean line at the bars by using the speedo headlight. :)


In Alzo style...
