The individual components look nice, but when put together it doesn't balance out.

That bike literally screams for a Rickman fairing, and some clip-ons. The high handlebars and generic headlite ears, just don't cut it. Love the Fontana 4LS, but his price tag on that seems a bit high. I put a brand new 9" 4LS Grimeca on my 73 Duc for about a fifth of what he's talking. Nontheless, cool bike with lots of potential. Be interesting to see what it goes for. Cheers.

A few nice ideas on that one and realy nice finish, probably to nice to use. If it was mine I would have done a few things differently:
The front fender and the handle bars looks wrong,and with the amount ofmoney put into it there should bee an electronic ignition.

I'm sorry John, but ....that was my first impression, which is usually right.

A sigh of relief..... WHEW!

Not because I was honest, I just didn't want to hurt your feelings.
