"I really tried to make every part of the bike by hand but found a gas tank that was near perfect so I just modified it & welded a vintage race-boat filler cap. I was not trying to build a whimsical bike made of junk parts as a novelty but scavenging thrift stores and culinary supply houses was what I had at my disposal and what was within my budget."

freakin' rad. max, i love how those stacks and pipes compliment each other. i think the juxtaposition of the "breathe in, breathe out" give the bike a more organic feel, the engine sitting there like a big breathing chest of an athlete.
