Holy smackers!  Pure industrial love that is. Shooting it in front of that mural? brilliant!

I like that bike a lot.  [coffee]

It was HOOT to ride, and a fun, quick build too...

BTW, the oil cooler is stashed up in the frame behind the steering head.  [thumbsup]

Thanks!  It was debut'ed during the height of the "look at me, I took a part off my bike & painted it black" era about 2009. 

I wanted to show off the enormity of the 999S motor in the frame so it *all* went silver.

Welp, I dont have the Monster anymore, but I do have photos of it in front of a mural!  Santa Paula.  The red Staggerwing was owned by my neighbors dad.

Mural depicting a lot of the local people and their trade.  The one holding the chair is for my Great Uncle.  He was a well known contractor and furniture builder locally.  I have an entire bedroom suite made from Apple.
