Pretty good looking build you have there. If you can finish that front fender up to match, it'll be a pretty sick bike!

thanks! mounting the fender was just the first step. it will be getting a diet and then paint. so no worries about it being finished.

Ok, big guy. Very nice. I got to tell ya, it's funny, I was thinking of commenting on the
headlight. It's the one element of the build that has sort-of 'jarred' me. I've been trying to screw up my nerve to voice anything, that could be possibly be construed as critical of your build. Just when I gather the courage, you post new pics. Wow, the windscreen finishes off the headlight nicely!

So no more second guessing you.... You the MAN!!

Oh, did you notice that _Z_ used your build to illustrate what a fighter should look like? Sweet ;-)

thanks man! i appreciate it. i may make several versions of the flyscreen but this one is pretty good i think... it looks a little like a "party-hat" but it was easy to make.

i really do appreciate the constructive criticism. It helps me catch things that i would have overlooked.

No i didnt see what _Z_ said... where did he say it?

Can I point out that Knifemaker's bike is in the running for July ROTM?

I would think everyone that has followed this thread and the skill and effort Chris has put into this bike would feel ok with going and voting for it, rite?
