    dude, this bike is just ugly… I love everything about it. This is exactly what I want to roll. This will piss off my neighbors (with their 30K+ harleys).

    Looks like he just wiped his engine with some dirty oil to get that patina look. Love the sectioned tank, leather seat, and handlebars. It took a lot of work to make that bike look that neglected.

    Mate this bike is Fu%*en ( apparently the sepo censor doesn’t like that word unless it has few of @#$%$ those things in it) kick arse!!! It’s ugly as wombat shit but it’s classy and well thought through.

    Mate I like it a lot , grungy as shit. Nice and induvidual , this bike says “F&*ck You, you wanker breathed cockheads who try to buy youself an identity on a factory bike, I built my identity into this bike and I bet you don’t even own a welder so screw you ,you piece of conformist wombat crap!!!!”

    I hope this clarifies where I’m coming from.

    The other bit was a dig at the censor of this page for censoring my use of the word F$%ck, apparently it’s not ok in “sepoland” to print the F word in it’s enirity. ( I’m a shithouse speller).
    We have a saying here “You guys got the Puritians thank christ we got the convicts”

    Hope everyone has a nice day, I’m off to drink some Queensland beer, beer in the tropics tastes soooo good!
