I like this shot better:

Needs rearsets. And a bigger tank. Other than that, jangleplatz!

I wanna see the parts fiche for that

Yup, that's beyond cool.

Wiked!

…but, if the parts are all from scrap, why just Yamaha then?

geekery+motorcycles+art = Bloody fecking brilliant!

Symmetry, perhaps?

Say you needed 4 identical parts, of which a motorcycle only has one, then buying 4 different scrap bikes wouldn't really cut it.

It just seems to make sense that buying a bunch of the same bike would be best, as to avoid running into a situation where your creation looks hodgepodge, because you didn't have enough copies of certain parts, and used different stuff all over the place.

(Hellloooo run on sentence.)

I want to place that outside my roommates door when he wakes up in the morning to go to work. hahHAh

Also if your roomate happens to work at the Yamaha dealer or something. Then you can try to pull matching rotors and whatnot out of the recycling.

I hate to think where one shoves in the key. Step back now!
