Creamsickle
You ever go through a project backwards? I kinda hate to do
this type of thing because it costs the customer more time and
aggravation in the long run, but allow me to explain. This guy
calls explaining how he just had a bike built but didn't like this
and didn't like that and if we could redo the whole thing. What?
I asked him why he didn't go back to the original shop for this
work, some of it being warranty issues anyway but he said he
tried with no success and didn't want to go back anyway. Well
shit then, bring it on.
Turns out this fellow and his lovely wife (who also rides) had a
treasure-trove of "whaddayathink of this idea" moments. It also
turns out that, I too have these moments in rapid succession,
together manifesting in the bike you see here. (well
mostly, not including the new Kiwi front end and hand made oil
bag, more pics to come*)
Anyway, we ended up with a two-wheeled version of Clark Gable,
handsome, suave + debonair. Two things I really like about this
bike are the color, and the speed of build time. Sometimes we
"overwork" ourselves here at the U. S. Kustoms dungeon just to
go where no man has gone before, creating one-off elaborate
details only other builders pick up on, this one was a snap. Sure
the cut down cat-eye dash took a little time, or the boardtrack
inspired heim-joint supported seat, but for the most part it utilizes
a lot of off the shelf aftermarket parts, massaged by us of course.
