LOL tis a modern garage so its a tight squeeze to get anything in there. thank god for perspective tho, that trikes about 1650mm max width
the black and blue lowrider is kawasaki ZR1100 engined, big lump of an engine, 8 spark plugs, 4 coils and more black boxes for the ignition etc than I care to think about again, went like stink, handled well to, despite the 200 back tyre.
again the frame, foot controls handlebars etc were all my work, the thing I hated and still do, are the yokes, way too skinny, but thats what happens when you pay someone else to do something, hence why now I dont do that anymore
the exhaust was built so that I could get the bike down low, I wanted the frame rails and engine down in the weeds. but also to visually take up some of the space twixt the engine and front wheel due to the rake on the frame, made the system from lots of bits of tubing, and got a damaged carbon can off ebay for next to nowt, shortened it, et voila
rear suspension is an aftermarket swingarm for something? that I heavily modified, it then runs harley air pull shocks under the engine, the bike was very short and small.
seat height was 22", bars were 46" wide
the GSXR engine hardtail had some nice brass bits,
footpegs, alloy bosses with brass tube sleeved over, I then picked up the .38 special cases after shooting one day, and cross drilled and bonded hammered these in, nickel plated cases against the brass looked good, even beter once the brass tarnished up a bit
this tail light was a solid lump of brass bar!! 2.5" across the flats. bored out the middle to give a recess for LED internals, then milled the end and cut a piece of red acrylic as a lens, acrylic is shiney and marks easy, but if you sand blast it, you get a lovely non reflective finish.
can just see in this pic how I then drilled through, and taped 6 holes, screwed in and loctited 6 long grubscrews to leave me with studs, then put brass domenuts on, all sat at the same angle
LOL
