Best looking "imitation" patina I have ever seen. The whole bike has come together brilliantly. Congrats :)

Incredible job on this bike! I love everything about it... except the part where I can't ride it!

I would love to have this in my stable. All the right stuff in all the right places. Both the tanks and the headbadge very kool. Nice!
