Drove to Caifornia and picked up this beauty! Dude completely dissasembled and polished and rebuilt. He made a custom chopper frame for it, but did not leave room for the stock air box. Hundreds of hours of work put into this. Not sure what i am going to do with it yet, but cool! He put barbed fittings into the heads for the water inlets to replace the oring design. he said it did not leak, but.... worst case, I polish the extra set of stock heads I have and swap them out. we shall see. what would you do with it?

That is a lot of work.

I think it would go best in a VF1000F chassis with stock F bodywork so you could actually see the motor. In an R chassis, with R bodywork, it would be mostly hidden.

I would buy a sheet of glass and make a coffee table out of it.

A 112 HP coffee table, NICE! i like the ideas. keep them coming!

Unfortunately, not keep it clean.

Yea, will be tough to keep clean, for sure. Maybe a show custom chopper would be best. I have a stock F frame, maybe modify it to a rigid.

Yes, i have a stock frame, maybe weld it into a rigid chopper or something.

If you want it to stay looking like that - whether in a bike or under glass - paint it with Nyalic/Everbrite.

Where do you get that? Good idea.
