    I just looked through the thread beginning to end. Yikes, amazing attention to detail and very creative solutions for tube frame, wiring, coils, etc. I don't have that type of temperment/ patience, so I take my hat off to those who do.

    A very minor point that didn't seem up to the rest of the build quality was the seat and dash top texture - a little too bumpy looking. Easy for me to say - right? Everything else is just plain mind boggling!
