I can accept any motorcycle owner wishing to add his own signature and personality to his machine. Making an individualistic statement is fine. However for me the choice of platform to be used must be selected carefully so that whatever changes you make,they do actually improve the base machine.

For me although I can appreciate the skill of the work involved, the following picture to me screams that this exercise in particular is just so wrong!

That poor bike,

I can appreciate the effort that was done, but it just does not work for me personally. However if the rider loves it, than fair play.

Cheers

In all fairness, its the paint job you lot can't like which is fair enough. But the owner obviously likes it. It looks tidy, but not for me.

Saying that though, that polished rear arm and gold/polished wheels and ample polishing looks rather horny
