The owner must be a very wealthy Arab. It would take a large harem to keep that thing polished.

Oy, and i complain about getting blinded by the gas console ; and all that chrome to shine, I'd be scared to take her out in the real world . Nice in an art studio though.

You would spend more time cleaning than riding.

Yeah man, like what's up with that seat?

And ummm, it's way to chromey for my liking. Chrome can bring out colour like it does on my Cardinal Red, but now that I've seen a predominately chrome bike, it's too much. No character! No artistry. And I tell you, that guy's either stupid or he has a lot of money to burn 'cause getting stuff chromed is EXPENSIVE! Big time!!!!!!

Stupid and lots of money is a situation that seems to often collide with disasterous results in the custom bike world...
