Asking 7500.00 one of a kind!
Full metal build, (NOT fiberglass but hand formed steel)
50HP Honda crf450X electric start.
Custom paint is Awesome!
Hand built Girder front with air shocks, Hard tail.
EVERY visible weld was ground down.
VERY light weight.
Used Harley style 21" wheels with 3/4" axle so the sky is the limit if you dont like the spokes.
would be a great show and go bike.
The Motor is an 05 (I have the title as I bought a running bike)
As you can see when we had the VC off to check the valve lash she is like new inside.
New tires, wheels, Batt, chain, sprockets, etc...

If the above links dont work go to you tube and search for "Thepook317" for a test ride vid and full walk around.
or copy paste the link in your browser.
I would also be interested in a project car for trade? who knows....

Hi Pook,

Someday can you publish a tutorial (with pictures) on your methods of grinding welds that smooth? Both "inside" and "outside" (convex? concave?). What tools, techniques do you use and in what order? It would be really instructional 'cause, looking at the pictures, you're really good at it.

Thanks, Bill
