      It's exactly what I described, a home built version of the front end used on some 80's racing bikes (including the Britten V1000) and on some recent BMW's (k1200/1300/1600). I put about 5k miles on it, a lot of that riding to work and back, then had electrical problems I haven't yet fixed.

      I was already building this when Fury Road was announced, but didn't finish it until a year or so after the release date. I'd LOVE to work on vehicles for one of his new films. I actually took this bike to a huge Mad Max festival held in the CA desert and won :best bike" in their vehicle show. This shot is from the "parade" they had.
      You are way too cool for school. Total mad scientist bike. I love everything about it.

      What is the name of that festival? I'd love to stop by that next time I visit the coast.

              You did an excellent job of designing and fabricating all of the custom parts, with great attention to the details.
              For those who have not seen the build thread, it is so good:

              Thread: Hippie Hippie Shake Wäinö Chopper. Kawa Vulcan 800cc.

              "...If you can't find a suitable one, then you have to do it yourself"

              Moro. I had a hard hippie chopper fever and the only "real cure" for it is to build such a chopper. I bought a suitable Kawa Vulcan (Wäinö) 800cc -96 for it, quite cheap. Kawa was cafe racer style build and really awful to drive. After disassembling the unnecessary parts, it was ready to change shape.
