Custom Cycle

[Scale-Master]

This was started with no clear direction of where it would end, sometimes this kind of build can be “just the thingâ€, it was for me... The journey was more fun than the destination. Definitely on the funky side.

It was just something to tinker with and an excuse to machine a few parts. I started with the front wheel and brake. The body was reworked and a handful of detail parts were machined for the headlights, gas cap and rear wheel mounting. The exhaust was made of brass and textured to march the front rim.

The rear fin is made of aluminum. Paint is a leftover mix from a previous “real jobâ€, I did add a little white to it and blended (frosted?) the tip of the front fender. BMF makes up most of the trim spears. Enjoy it if you can…

You may thinks it's funky but I think it's totally cool. Unique with beautiful lines, color, and details - the whole package. All those nifty closeups of cool details in the W.I.P. didn't even begin to hint as to where this would land up. You may not agree but I think it's a stunner!
