That is cool.
Your rat bike is pretty special.
Mostly because it is authentic and the maintenance/upgrades you have done were accomplished by embracing and staying true to what is. You clearly have a great eye and feel for the genre evidenced by the masterful touches such as the skateboard and blanket. The faded light as above and on and on. That bike just like "The Jerk" has a special purpose. It is as cool as the helmet it was awarded.

This bike, with the helmet sitting on the seat, will make a great calendar candidate. Be my first Nomination unless someone beats me to it.
That's a strong hint to get some proper photographs.
From the local Craigslist. Another example of 45-year-old, Old School Texas pinstriping on an XS650. Signed "BUSH."
