    This is an early example of a very unusual design, but I personally think it's ugly as a pug. I'm actually not a fan of Ness's work in general, actually. It's all OCC from 30+ years ago - overthought, overwrought, and generally unrideable... I'll take a rat-bobber over a Ness bike any day.

    The San Lorenzo shots are great. Never thought I'd crave a Pinto! Any more shots? Like that flat black hotrod behind the greyhound in the red sweater?

    @.357-Bringing Back The Gold: Not quite my style (I'd rather have a vintage Triumph Bonneville or a Ducati Monster 700), but I can appreciate the craftsmanship that went into this bike.


    If we're talking custom motorcycles, these are some of my favorites:

    @Untidy Cousin It: god i love cafe racers. Whenever I would go to the outerbanks there is this bike shop on the main road through north carolina to cross the bridge tot he banks. The bike they've had on display for a few years right out front is one of the most beautiful cafe racers i've ever seen. I wish I knew the name or could find the shop... it makes me drool every time... than Grave Diggers dungeon is a few miles away and it's freakin heaven...
