Cool build i like the ratified look .it reminds me of an old hobo who rides the rails from town to town . A little worn down but still gets around .

This bike says Ratted Muscle written all over it. Great looking bike. The shaggy banana is my favorite.

Your pictures are Art.

Good Job on this one.

Building... riding...
thanx,all I was thinking about was to make sure I gave it a muscle stance at the start,I think the ape/fork combo did it and from then on its all good,I wish I could have put a fatter tire on the rear but no room,as is with a 20x2.125 there is only 2mm gap at the chainstays,and cheers for the art picture compliments,I planned to keep it clean and simple with pic's but I always start getting creative.

thanx,like a hobo it can take the knocks and keep on going,glad I stopped when I did as there is a fine line on adding just enough and then adding too much and destroying the look
 
The rat-isfaction meter is dialed to 11 on this one! Love the rust-tina you did on this, and your doo-dads, seat cover....in a class by itself. Now you have me re-thinking doing a shiny build next year....as one of our member's tag line says,
" rust is my favorite color" Rat on!
 
This is such a funky build!!
I love all of the cool and weird details.
 
Rat-tastic! That tail light is a cool add on. I'm liking that Bosch headlight, too.
 
Rat on :thumbsup:
