Well given all the bits you were collecting, like r1 front end, the lattice frame, the flatslide carbs etc, I was expecting something radical but sporty, so you have caught me completly off guard with those pictures.....

I admire the skill and free thinking determination to create your own vision for a special one off bike, and although its not my cup of tea, you have created a very unique bike.

I look at it and think;
Can you reach the bars?
Is there any human body which is that shape?
Has it got any steering lock before you hit the rad?
How are you going to get the carbs in and working?

But I expect you have already got some cunning solutions and I look forward to seeing them all come together

I know bar risers are not a bad thing but that's taking the piss.

How long are your arms Rob?

Otherwise what's there to say apart from that is one totally unique firestorm

If I had the tools, garage and the knowlage, I must admit I would love to design a one off custom.

Have fun
