WELL ANTON HAS BEEN HARD AT IT TRYING TO GET HIS RIDE TOGETHER THESE DAYS. WHEN THE PAINT IS FRESH THERE IS THAT EXCITMENT THAT COMES WITH THE ANTICIPATION OF WHAT IS TO COME. "THE RIDING!!!" AS YOU CAN SEE THE FRAME AWAITS THE MOTOR AND IT IS JUST ABOUT READY. ANTON'S BEEN RIGHT AT IT AND, ALTHOUGH YOU CAN'T HEAR IT, THE 88" IS TOGETHER AND RUNNING NOW ON THE TEST STAND. SOUNDS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE VERY MEATY. YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE GRIN ON ANTON'S FACE AS SHE SPRUNG TO LIFE. LOVE THEM STRAIGHT PIPES!!! NOW IT JUST NEEDS TO BE TORQUED DOWN AND RUN A COUPLE OF MORE TIMES AND THEN IT WILL BE READY TO BE SLID INTO THE BIKE. ALSO AT THIS TIME THE TANK IS BACK FROM ZEKE AND IT IS TRULY BEAUTIFUL. HE CONTINUES TO AMAZE ME AS EACH THING HE PAINTS GETS BETTER AND BETTER. A TRUE CRAFTSMAN WHO TAKES MUCH PRIDE IN HIS WORK. THE 5 GALLON TANKS TURNED OUT BEAUTIFULLY AND SUITS THE BIKE WELL AS IT MATCHES THE WIDTH OF THE HUGE 200 REAR TIRE SETUP. AS I TRY TO SHOW YOU THE DETAIL OF THE TANK HERE ON THE NET IT IS HARD TO GET THE TRUE LOOK OF IT. ONE WOULD HAVE TO SEE IT UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL TO APPRECIATE THE VERY FINE SMALL DETAILS IN IT. BUT IT IS THE SMALL DETAILS THAT DO FORM A TRULY CUSTOM BIKE AND SET IT APART FROM ALL OF THE OTHERS. ZEKE'S PAINT DOES NOTHING BUT COMPLEMENT ANTON'S BIKE AS DOES THE TIME AND CARE THAT HAS BEEN PUT INTO EACH PIECE ON HIS RIDE COMPLEMENTS THE PAINT. YA CAN'T HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER. EACH DETAIL OF THE RIDE IS WHAT MAKES IT A COMPLETE AND BEAUTIFUL BIKE IN THE END. BY NOW ANTON IS "FROTHING AT THE BIT" TRYING TO GET HER UP AND RUNNING, AND WHO COULD BLAME HIM?? THIS IS HIS BABY....CREATED WITH MUCH TIME AND SWEAT AND PATIENCE. SOON WE WILL BRING YOU THE FINISHED BIKE TO SEE........THAT IS IF HE HOLDS STILL LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO SNAP SOME PICS!!!!! HA HA HA!!!!!

BACK TO RACK
