its been one of the hardest things ive built yet - and its not done either - just to get the look right and not too fancy looking. having a couple of days off after the weekend to recharge then back to it probably tomorrow night.

i honestly think the twin panther will be easier all told

come up for a nosey sometime shaun - you know where i am and the beers at least kept in the shade...

Really is a lovely looking thing Sumo. Looks like it could be a factory option. Even the little rack on the front guard balances out the back end perfectly. Like that a lot.
I'm sure Shaun's already collared you for a write up for Brit Chopper magazine, but would appreciate us being added to your media appearance list please.
