Luv the "33" cafe bobber33, nice work! not to detract from the others, great stuff!
mine is built to stay within our tough rego laws, basically bolt on from many good sources. I wish we had the artistic freedom you Stateside guys seem to get away with. I Don't have many pics of the build and about to go "off the air" for two weeks I'll repost these |

dimensionally, this one has all the whistles and bells ringing for me...
from the exhaust and the length of the tasty reverse megaphone to the angle of the tail section behind the "Seat". from what i see if the rearsets, again nice application to the whole- i'd love to see it in person,BUT we are judging from pics and whatever light is on the bikes as we see them. rude retaliation? |
