I dunno....to each his own I guess, but this doesn't appeal to me - but that's just me.
The guy certainly poured a lot into it though so I have to give him that!

i like it ! but i dont like the leather look stuff much ,if it was black i think it would look better.

I like it for a museum piece. Can appreciate the work that went into it. I will bet I coulda bought 2 Tigers for what the guy has in it $ wise though. Seems a lot of work to look good riding to get coffee or such.

Once again he had to do that to the pipes I am not sure what people see in it for me it really just takes away from the bike

not sure what that is about dave ! i cant see the point ......i thought that stuff was to keep heat down in tight places ?

I like the bike!!

The only thing I wouldn't like is leaning over on those clip on bars. And...if you're going to do all that to it, then why not add a second front brake rotor?

This one is a little different too in the pipe department.

Like the look
methinks you'd have to be a bit careful at stops tho

I like this one better. Nice.

I like the first one except for the wrapped pipes and brown leather. To my eye, the brown leather does not go with that bike.

 

[DaveM]

I really like this second one I could see myself riding that

I like the looks of them both but I would do some changes to the first one. The wrapped pipes would have to go and the seat needs to be darker, maybe not black but darker none the less. But like as has been said before, it's his ride and he built what he wanted and I can't argue with that. But if he had asked for my input. . .

 

[DaveM]

The pipes would have to be sorted ASAP

 

[CarlS]

I just do not like wrapped pipes. to me, they are not aesthetically appealing at all.

 

[hemibee]

To me the only street legal bike that can pull off the wrapped pipes look is the Buell Ulysses and it was more for function than cosmetics but it did look right on that bike, at least it did/does to me.
